has anyone got GROUNDED 1.0 release to work? There are some guides with protontricks to install dotnet40 but it doesnt work for me.

Looking at ProtondDB, seems like there's an invisible Xbox login to fumble around in. Are you not getting that far?

I'm not sure if it does the same thing but Emudeck also has a tool it installs to compress roms/ISOs that's worth using IME.

I'm having a hard time finding specific info, is there a list of the consoles that the tool will compress for? My deck's coming on monday and I'd like to get any necessary prep work done ahead of time

The Emudeck script only makes CHDs afaik, and also whitelisted to only do it in directories for emulators that actually support CHD. So PS1, PS2, Sega CD, Saturn, Dreamcast, Xbox. Biggest exception is gonna be Dolphin, which doesn't support CHD and has their own compressed iso format instead that you need a different tool for.

it will show a popup when you start a game with achievements that says youre logged in and how many chievos there are. if you dont see one i presume youre not logged in or the rom hash doesnt match theirs etc

The Emudeck script will also convert GCN and Wii to RVZ by calling dolphin-tool.

Looks like there is a maxcso binary in the github but the converter script doesn't use it at this time, so PSP is still out.

So is the Deck meant to be able to truly rumble like a console controller, or are the haptics mainly meant for giving tiny bits of feedback like typing on a phone? Okami appears to be trying to rumble, but I can only barely tell it's happening at all.

It seems to do a bit of both? I've played some games where it feels like game rumble but in antichamber it seemed more like a weird haptic feedback when moving the sticks.

I'm getting to the point where I'm watching the dumbest Deck starter guide videos I can find and I found one that starts with "sign into Steam" which yeah dude, you need a Steam account to even buy this thing I think people could figure that out alone.

You say that but I'm sure there are a surprising number of people confused and mad that their Steam Deck is "broken" and haven't figured out that they need to log in to Steam, that Valve doesn't ship them with the user's Steam credentials already activated.

So you're saying they'll get the Deck and when it says "Let's get started: Log in to Steam" on first boot they'll just stare at it befuddled?

Goons, stop imagining people to get mad at.

I work retail, and the number of people who stare blankly at the credit card reader when it's telling them how to pay is staggering. I have literally no faith in the intellect or reading comprehension of the average human being at this point.

I'm still confused about Wii U on Deck. I can't find a WUX or whatever file. This is what the Wii U game download I have looks like:


Is there a way to convert this to what I need?

If you're downloading them in .app format then you need to convert them to something Cemu can read, yeah. If you're on Windows and reasonably familiar with the command line you can use CDecrypt to do the job.

Download the source from the releases page and unzip. Open a terminal in the folder that was created by right clicking the folder -> services -> new terminal at folder. Once the terminal opens type "make" (no quotes) and hit enter. Once that runs you should be able to run the executable by typing "./cdecrypt" (again no quotes) and pressing enter. If all that worked without error you should be able to follow the instructions from the github.

Parcelforce are on strike so they've started using Evri/Hermes to avoid delays. Now I get my deck stolen or delivered to my bin but they steal it on time!

My heart genuinely fell this morning when I saw the "we've got your package" email was from Evri. Went from "oh cool I'm getting a stream deck" to "oh cool, some intense administrative hassle looms".

And, of course, I sully support the striking workers. I just wish Evri's refusal to actually deliver things was an act of solidarity, rather than blistering incompetence.

After playing around with the steam deck for a few days, I would like to say the Xbox Cloud Gaming works pretty well, if you have PC Game pass. I'm playing Mlb the Show on a steam deck, thru Xbox cloud (lol), and I don't really notice the latency. Sometimes there is lag where everything freezes and speeds up, but very playable.

My only nitpick with this thing so far would be the fan. It's pretty loud when the volume of the game is not high enough to drown out the noise.

Well it's now been a week since my Steam Deck shipped and the Finnish postal service still don't have it so there's no way I'm getting it before Monday at the earliest. Then again these are the motherfuckers who literally took two weeks to deliver a priority letter 200 kilometers.

It's amazing how Valve managed to just find the shittest possible options for European deliveries.

Just picked up Trombone Champ and it's already one of my favourite games on the Deck. Unfortunately after pausing the game, the gyros no longer work at all! Is there some hidden setting I'm missing? I have no idea where to start looking as the gyros are set to "Always on".

E: putting it in and out of standby a few times seems to have fixed it

What did you find to be the sweet spot for the gyro? I had fun with the game but didn’t find it to be an optimal Deck experience.
