Hey @RyanMcGiggle, I'm gonna need more information about your download and about what it happening.
1) are you installing the correct downgrade patcher for which ever version of SPT you are using? Can you tell me which version you are trying to use?
2) are you installing manually or using the auto installer?
I will try and help as best as I can but please provide as much information as you can so we can get you fixed up and ready to go.
Thanks.
