Steam | How do I keep my game from updating to 3.0?
I like arriving home, sit on my couch, relax and play a bit X4 on my Ultrabook. X4 was never intended to work an iGPU, not even to speak of being supported by Egosoft, but it always kind of worked so I went with it because I hate sitting at a desk It doesn't run on Ryzen iGPUs though! (CTD on startup)
With the current Beta for the next patch 3.0, it is apparent that X4 is not going to run on Intel iGPUs anymore either (CTD on startup). I am trying to find a way to keep Steam from updating my library, staying on the previous version, before 3.0 hits the shelves. Is this in any way possible? Google delivers nothing.
Thank you

You could try running it using the X4 No-Steam exe and so not enable Steam when playing. I would also go into your Steam library, right-click on X4, select Properties, Updates tab, and then choose the option that says 'Only update when I launch this game'. That is just to ensure no background updates when using Steam for other things but not running X4 or using No-Steam. Obviously launching X4 in Steam would update it.
I cannot guarantee all this, but good luck.

Thank you didn't know there is a NoSteam exe now. Is anyone able to download it? It says "Access denied" to me :/
If not, I am going to bother CBJ with it ^^

You need to be logged into the forum when you visit the download page.

As it says on that bonus material download page that I linked above and also in the No-Steam FAQ that that page links to:
"The NoSteam executable is available only to users who have either X4 registered in their forum profile or linked their Steam account."
