I've tried to keep it as simple as possible, I've used only built-in imports. Using the below version of python, I'm sure any version above python 3.x would work, but if you have any trouble use the one I mentioned.
Be vigilant of the hex table name hex_table_{game_version}_{commit_id}.json
, it consists of important data, so if you're having issues after running the update be sure you're trying to update with the correct hex table.
Python 3.11
-
As of
v0.1.3
the script can patch without providing the path, if placed in the root of the SFSE repo folder. -
As of
v0.2.0
, the script can now verify the files patched via md5 checksums
-
Added support for Powershell 7
-
As of
v1.5.6
, the powershell CLI can now install a standalone python version, this can be helpful if you're having issues detecting your install. -
As of
v1.5.10
, when setting the newGamePath, the permissions will be checked to ensure there's less issues when moving the Starfield executable.
