ffffff, topics got merged while I was posting; sorry if there's redundant info in here. Haven't had time to go back and read 9 pages of posts yet.

FYI, for anyone not wishing to update: telling Steam "do not automatically update this game" (right click on the game in Steam -> Properties -> Updates tab) will prevent Steam from
automatically downloading the update. However, if you're running Steam in online mode the next time you try to launch Skyrim, Steam will attempt to acquire the update then.
The only way to prevent downloading the patch while still being able to play Skyrim is to run Steam in offline mode (Steam menu -> "Go Offline...") whenever you want to play the game.
Please be aware that if you play Skyrim while running Steam in offline mode, it will not record your hours played, nor will achievements unlock. In-game chat also won't work, and while you can still take screenshots, you won't be able to upload them to your Steam profile until you go back into online mode.
Edit: I can confirm resistances are broken. Will be testing other issues shortly.

Can anyone confirm what changes (if any) have been made RE: "General functionality fixes related to remapping buttons and controls." Have they allowed binding to the numberpad now? Can we now properly drop things / use dragon souls / bind things to favorites if those keys are rebound? And more importantly, how badly does it break http://skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=88?
