homeless snail posted:That's a software thing, you can divide up the touchpads however you like. They just don't have the markings engraved on them like the Steam Controller It's not clear if you can with the Deck, if the hardware supports 4 separate buttons. I hope you can!

v1ld posted:I never played it on PSP, though I had one. The PSP had no right stick, so you had camera controls on the dpad and movement on the left stick. There was no lock-on either, so you had to move the camera all the time, while moving, both with your left hand.

I've always just rotated my thumb to hit ABXY, people actually lay an index finger on the buttons? Sounds painful

Yeah, it's in Steam Input itself. You can make the Dualshock 4 touchpad into a d-pad or set of buttons right now. If you really wanted to.

Playing video games is for the weak, the real connoisseur understands the thrill of spending hours fine tuning settings and mods and then playing for like thirty minutes tops. If only Steam had a system already in place for people to share the configs they've already made and have them sorted by highest rating/usage... hmm...

Feels Villeneuve posted:me: what if i could use the face buttons it feels normal. me: is your brain dried cement. you: maybe. Homie a button is a button, which sounds like something an old gamer would yell. like for real it's a button lol. you could even keep jump bound to both while you acclimate but your right that's probably ungodly effort scared of using a back button lol.

Which is something you'd expect as a routine thing on PC, but it's only Valve who bothered going deep enough into it and streamlining it under a unified overlay working for most controllers under the sun, single handedly breaking the accessibility barrier for thousands of games. But Steam is only a game launcher you know?

Quantum of Phallus posted:It feels like there are a shocking amount of people buying this product they don’t really know anything about. I’m not talking about waiting for reviews, I mean what it actually looks like and has been advertised to do. Technically speaking nobody has bought one yet, we've just put down a deposit to reserve the right to buy one. There have been enough previews that I'm confident it will do the things I'd like to do with it... and what do you mean people don't know what it looks like? There have been plenty of demo units sent around to all sorts of people. Mozi fucked around with this message at 15:44 on Feb 1, 2022 |

Quantum of Phallus posted:*may not play all your steam games Maybe not at launch but coldpie said that he's confident the vast majority will eventually work, provided Valve gets the devs using anticheat on board and Microsoft doesn't start blocking Wine. A Windows partition isn't a total solution either, though if you play a lot of competitive multiplayer or F2P garbage it might be necessary, at the cost of usability and convenience.

A relative had an old beater laptop that couldn't run it well, and it was a night-and-day difference after putting Ubuntu on the thing. We also tried swapping Java for OpenJDK but didn't notice a difference. Modpacks used to be complicated under Linux, but there are different launchers these days. I'm mostly curious how it performs on the Deck's hardware specs with Linux.

What's the secret to getting java minecraft on Linux to run well, I tried it on our beater laptop and it ran like rear end. Installed Android bedrock on it and it runs great, which is nice for multiplayer with Windows.

Installed Android bedrock on it and it runs great, which is nice for multiplayer with Windows. No secret, it just ran better out of the box compared to fresh Win 10 on the same hardware. It was basically playable on Windows but not comfortably. There are tips out there but I didn't get too into it aside from switching to OpenJDK, which apparently was a downgrade. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.makeuseof.com/tag/7-steps-install-optimize-minecraft-linux/amp/ https://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/minecraft-java-edition/survival-mode/297111-howto-optimize-minecraft-for-linux Heran Bago fucked around with this message at 19:07 on Feb 1, 2022 |
