I just bought AE and it still hasn't updated.

When you start a new game all the new CC content will download.

Are you sure?

That is what is supposed to happen. Once you buy the Anniversary Upgrade, starting the game and getting to the main menu the download should start automatically. If it doesn't, you can try manually downloading the things from the Creation menu.

If neither of those work, you may have to go to Bethesda's website and make sure you have the proper account linked.

Now if you mean game version, that has absolutely nothing to do with having the Anniversary Upgrade. It is true that when the Anniversary stuff came out, a new game version was released along side it. But Anniversary Upgrade or not, if you have installed the game since January you have the current game version (1.6.1170).

i will try (i use 1.6.1170 and steam hasn't update to latest version)

No I don't own the game just guessing.

If you have Skyrim SE game version. 1170 you will have 4 free CC content mods. If you paid extra for AE CC content full package you will have around 80 of them.

They will download when you launch the game with the game launcher. If you have a modded game and use SKSE, you need to use the vanilla launcher to start the download and once finished close game and then go back to SKSE launcher.

Which number is bigger? 640 or 1170? 1.6.640 is not the most recent version. The most recent version is 1.6.1170.

You don't update from 1170 to 640. That would be a downgrade, not an update. Unless it gives you an option to choose (and in this case it does not give you an option), Steam always installs the latest version when you choose to install a game.

Oh..... Thank you to help. i want to play mod 1.6.640

Good Luck with that, so look for how to downgrade. As an fyi you will then have SE version .640.
wow helpul thread i also thought 1.6.640 was an upgrade from 1.6.1170

trying to reinstall, I will never forgive Bathesda for this ♥♥♥♥ show.. and I will never buy another game from them. I have a distinct issue with greedy companies coming back years later with a money grab or a update that screws an entire community.

Easy mistake to make at first, if you only look at first numbers.
1170 is indeed a bit more than 640. :RoflOwlcat:

Compiler update was one of the most welcomed update this game ever got. BGS was "malicious enough" in their actions to provide direct support SKSE, so that it got over the update fast.
