Fixing KEK Story (downloading old depot)

Downloading old depots and fixing the game

Applying the ''fix''

Notes: (yes read these!!) This will work for every other game as well, this is not specific to KEK Story, you just need to go on SteamDB and find old depots. Also Astats mods are currently allowing this for some games while making a list, Kek Story will most likeley be one of them

Note: All the achievementrs work on the following depot version, also you can go to your install locations and find a KEK Story_Data folder and a Save.XML file inside. Inside it will say what level you are on.

The last achievement unlock at Level 25

Downloading the old depot:

If this is too difficult to follow get the files here, https://www.sendspace.com/file/e7404r

1. What you want to do is go to your browser, enter this

steam://nav/console

It'll open steam for you and take you to the console




2. In this console, for the correct KEK Story depot enter this:

download_depot 575730 575731 7105729701240368802

3. It may take a moment but it will say downloading depot 575731 (11mb)


You can go to your downloads tab safely, and see that the download speed changed and Steam is downloading something

^^in the console it will be shown as

steam://open/downloads

4. Be patient until it says ''Depot download complete

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\content\app_575730\depot_575731

5. Head to that location then (or wherever your root steam folder is)







6. Copy that over to where KEK Story is actually located and replace the old files, in my case on my B Drive as pictured





7.

Now praise Kek, have fun and don't forget to updoot this guide!

Backstory

In a recent reddit thread, a user was complaining that a game had replaced a soundtrack with a new update.

User GMMan_BZFlag commented about 'a way' to download older depots of a game through the inbuilt Steam console.

Brilliance ensued and user ItsMeCheeson and me applied this to KEK Story.

Read the thread here.

Thanks Statig for your kind words glad it worked for you. I'm also using this guide to show people how to fix other 'broken' games with this method.

Like Ice Cream Surfer, Squeezone... can all be fixed by downloading old 'depot'
