Joystick as scrollbar.

Quoting that for later.

Anyone know if there's a way to browse community bindings willy-nilly?

Sometimes I suspect a satisfying binding would exist but not specifically associated with whatever I'm running.

And whoever decided that all mouse actions should be right-hand-only is killing me. (Literally. Gotta mix up the left and the right to temper RSI.)

Does anyone else hate the Steam Keyboard while using the trackpads to type? I get random rear end double inputs (especially on the space bar) and enter inputs so when I'm entering something in it will hit "Enter" and start a search or remove my focus from wherever I was typing. It seems really finnicky or maybe something in my settings is screwed up?

Also, for Trackpad as Joystick, has anyone figured out the right trackpad settings to make it feel like it's acting like a Mouse? I want to tune it so it does but it might just be the nature of the beast in that it'll never feel quite as right.

When using it as a mouse I hate that *tap* is not a click and I have to press down. It's really weird and I ALWAYS move it during the click and miss what I wanted to interact with.

Should I... email Valve support?

UK is behind USA which is behind EU with how fast the 512 is going.

EU has 4 days of orders processed already. USA an hour. UK half an hour.

I hate it too. it switches the input types for me too much so I'm pressing enter when i shouldn't and sending incomplete word messages.

I do use the triggers and it doesn't mitigate the problem, it looks like it still registers those extra inputs for some reason.

Also, I'm not seeing any way to change the default layout when you're out of a game and just navigating Steam and the OS. Am I missing something?

It’s interesting if FF7R runs great on the deck because the PC port when it was on EGS wasn’t in the greatest shape and afaik wasn’t really fixed.

- Set up the right thumbstick with the style of input as "directional pad"

- On the Up direction icon, hit A to pull up the binding dialog

- Hit the left option button to bring up the Activator dialog

- Set the first Activation Type to Long Press, set Binding to scroll up, Turbo on, Haptics to Low or None (probably, as desired)

- Hit Add Activator

- For the second activator set the Activation Type to Regular Press, binding to Up Arrow

- Repeat all of the above for scrolling down/down arrow

- Tweak the "Long Press Time" to taste on both- the shorter the bar, the quicker you'll need to be on press-and-release for the arrow keys to be recognized

- Tweak the turbo repeat rate for "how fast you want the scroll to scroll"
Just going to save this for when I have my Deck in my hands, sounds useful.

Be sure to change the stick from regular press to start press so that it scrolls when the stick is pulled instead of when it returns to the center.

The Ocarina of Time PC port "Ship of Harkinian" has a Linux build. It's a real good port with a lot of togglable features. 60fps any resolution and boots on C buttons just to start.
https://github.com/HarbourMasters/Shipwright/blob/develop/BUILDING.md

Jak & Daxter's PC port also has a Linux build. They are still squashing some bugs, but the game is 100%able. There are Arch Linux instructions so I assume it's Deck compatible.
https://github.com/open-goal/jak-project

There are many Mario 64 port projects, curious which would be a best fit for Deck.


As for why native ports are exciting when emulation exists - it takes a fraction of the computation and battery power.

God drat son, that owns. I only have 33 games installed but I have 108 Non-Steam titles, all ROMs and poo poo, so we're even.

Also, I tried out MSFS2020 on the Deck and man, it's not a good time. I mean, it's really not meant for something like this but it just looks like total poo poo, the UI doesn't really like the Deck's resolution. It also gobbled up so much space I can't even download all of the free content updates in the In-Game Store, lmao. Oh well, was a fun test if anything.

Uninstall it, reinstall it, remove it, readd it, and then don't set any compatibility things. It's a native Linux app, so you don't need any compatibility layers, and putting them on causes it to break: I went through the same thing, and the aforementioned fixed it right up.

Everything is updated to the most recent stable version, but it’s a native Linux app image so it shouldn’t be run through Proton.

Maybe the launch option stuff was pasted weird?

You're phrasing this like it was a problem exclusively for the Steam Deck, but Capcom unilaterally increased the system requirements for a released game rendering it unplayable for a subset of the game's owners which is really hosed up.
