Downloading Tools
First off, we need to actually download the tool.
Go to https://github.com/SteamRE/DepotDownloader and click on Releases.

































We want to download the newest release.

















Click on depotdownloader-[version].zip and save in your preferred location.





















Open the .ZIP and extract all to your preferred location
Opening the program
Go to the folder you extracted the files in and click on the title bar



















Type in "CMD" and hit enter









This will open a command prompt window in the folder.
Downloading Depots
The template for downloading depots is:
dotnet DepotDownloader.dll -app <id> [-depot <id> [-manifest <id>]] [-username <username> [-password <password>]] [other options]

Find versions manifests here: https://steamdb.info/depot/552101/manifests/

For brick rigs, the basic command line structure will look like this:
dotnet DepotDownloader.dll -app 552100 -depot 552101 -manifest <id> -username <username> -password <password>

For example: dotnet DepotDownloader.dll -app 552100 -depot 552101 -manifest 3539046982062625224 -username user1234 -password pass1234

The <username> and <password> mean your steam username and password.

If you have 2 Factor Auth enabled, it will ask you for your code.

Running your downloaded manifest
Once the manifest has downloaded, go back to wherever you saved DepotDownloader and click on the newly created folder called "depots"











Then navigate to 552101, and then to the numbered folder (can change).









Open a new explorer window and go to your brick rigs install folder. Default: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Brick Rigs

Move (or delete) the existing files in the folder.













Keep that window open and go back to the folder with the downloaded files.
Drag those files (excluding .depotdownloader) into the other folder.













Go back to Steam and hit Play!
Enjoy!

man the graphics on the old ones are so realistic

ok so apparently Valve re-enabled depot downloading and that's why the memory patcher didn't work

I thought that the feature was removed altogether but it wasn't so the old guide still works

DepotDownloader didn't work in my situation. I did every step like in the description.
