I can't point to version 1.0 of Satisfactory as the current version of ModManager and it doesn't rec

I'm trying to select my Steam version as the default for updating mods and it only recognizes my old 0.8 version that I've already removed from my computer and am now using the new one. Is there a file that I can modify this to point to the new version folder? The ModManager selector isn't working.

Make sure you updated the game before launching SMM. If your game is up to date, you have both U8 and 1.0 installed in the same folder at once, and SMM is detecting the U8 version. To fix this, uninstall the game, delete the game install dir if it still exists (this is NOT the AppData folder, but the location where you installed the game), then reinstall the game, and reopen SMM. If reinstalling the game takes too long for you, a quicker fix is to delete the <game install dir>\Engine\Binaries\Win64\FactoryGame-Win64-Shipping.version file, though this is not meant to be a permanent solution, as having the game installed twice in the same directory can cause issues later.

See my message. That's the other way the error can happen, but the one the bot responds with is way more common. Also, Steam will still launch the 1.0 version, even when there's both U8 and 1.0 files in the install dir, so that's not a good way to check Wait wtf Ah, this is a new thread The message I was referring to is https://discord.com/channels/555424930502541343/1299822005159460974/1300027428105617500 But you weren't the one who sent logs there, so that's not necessarily the case for you Yeah, it isn't What the bot said is correct, please do that

@Mircea Could you tell me what to do? - I no longer have the old version installed, nor is my server connected. Do I need to remove any files from C:\Users[user]\AppData\Local\FactoryGame?

No, that folder is your saves Uninstall the game, fully delete F:\Steam\steamapps\common\Satisfactory, then reinstall the game

@Mircea It works, but I had to remove all the content using the complete removal tool. And you can't have 2 versions installed because modManager doesn't work for both.

Wdym using complete removal tool?

Because if you just use Steam's uninstall, the records are still residual. And SMM doesn't recognize the reinstallation as a new version. And I believe that everyone who is migrating from 0.8 to 1.0 is now going through this.

Which is why I (and the bot) said you have to go and delete that install dir manually after uninstalling from steam, which is what whatever removal tool you used did Not everyone runs into this though Just people who downgraded to U8 after the 1.0 update Because then when steam gets a 1.0.0.x update, it thinks it already has 1.0 installed, just like when uninstalling, so it doesn't touch the U8 files
