The official hold downloads fail on Steam version of TSS (5.1.1.561). The download starts as it should, but aborts in the middle of "Calculating space needed... ".

I was told on chat that there is a system that makes the downloads fail, to avoid some kind of conflicts on the Steam DLCs.

For the next version, maybe make a system message box that explicitly explains this, and maybe give instructions for the correct way to download official holds?

I encountered this too. As I understand it, there is currently no official way to download the official holds in the TSS Steam build.
Thread

However...

I had success copying dat files over from the GatEB Steam version to the TSS Steam version, since I own all the DLCs for GatEB.

Note this is very much a "seems to work but who knows if it will break" situation.

What is the reason behind this?
