Dolphin works fine with the evdev input, you just have to press one of the face buttons for it to get recognized before the triggers.

So your gaming mode home screen can look like this and you can launch games from there. how do you set a banner for that leftmost recent games screen? that always turns up blank for my roms

Yeah, I used a few dollars I had left from selling cards probably a decade ago towards the deck. (are the cards still a thing? Don't think I earned one in a while)

Anyone been messing with pcsx2 settings? Simpsons Hit and Run ran great but ssx3 and mgs3 are struggling big time. In researching this stuff it sounds like mgs3 is just tough to emulate so that one might be a lost cause. The gameplay runs fine but the cutscenes are in slow-mo.

Two things that I ran into so far after purging and reinstalling EmuDeck in an attempt to make things cleaner/not poo poo: ES's scraper updates the game name for everything using the US name, so my list is full of several indistinguishable repeats of certain titles that got multiple releases. There doesn't seem to be a way to fix this (just show me the filename somewhere!) either. Is there a quick way to delete/reset all of the scraped crud? RetroArch also seems to have gotten RetroAchievements turned on, so every time I open a game I get a popup about how it's missing a username/password. I tried turning off achievements in RA, but when I go to save I get some error about permission denied. I'm not sure what I'm missing and video-only guides are a massive loving pain to deal with

PantsBandit posted:Anyone been messing with pcsx2 settings? Simpsons Hit and Run ran great but ssx3 and mgs3 are struggling big time. MGS3 has some weird effects in cutscenes that produce a blur effect by rendering the same frame multiple times or something and it's really demanding when emulated. It might actually be easier to emulate the MGS HD collection on PS3/360.

Apparently the solution was to close the content/emulated game first and then make the relevant settings changes and save, which. I don't really understand why, but sure. Now to figure out the "50 copies of the same game" problem. Having the art and information is nice, but not being able to tell them apart...

njsykora posted:If SRM doesn't find the artwork from SteamGridDB automatically because it's a bad program, you launch the game so it's the most recent game played. Then you can right click it from the library home screen in Desktop and set custom artwork like normal. Or you can set it in SRM. Russ walked through the process of doing all the artwork in his first Emudeck video. He does it for non-Steam Linux games but the process is the same for roms. Russ is coming out with a new guide for Emudeck next week to coincide with a big new version they're testing.

loving Moron posted:Holy cow I just looked into those and I am super jealous. I bought a meta quest two just to do a big theater but it makes me nauseous when using them. Do these have any consequences of motion suckness? Unfortunately because the 3dof doesn't track while using this on the Deck the screen becomes a static UI like an HUD so it doesn't move at all. If I move around too much while wearing them it gets me disoriented easily. I'm usually still.

I wanted the big screen and play VR but I had no idea I was so easily susceptible to the motion sickness. I should have waited and got a Steam Deck. Hindsight. Im thinking of selling my Meta Quest and my Switch and just focusing on the Steam Deck and possibly some pair of video glasses.

Got my Steam Deck today  having a lot of issues getting emulation to work at all on it though. I guess I need a stupid people guide that is a website walkthrough that I can read and follow carefully lol. Desktop mode on Steam Deck seems to have a lot of issues though. First problem I am having that I want to fix is that the download folder is only showing the root folder of a file I am unarchiving, but nothing else, even though I am confirming everything is archived. How do I fix this?

For anyone who’s been playing D2R on their deck, how have you been launching it? Have you just added the b.net launcher to steam?

I should have waited and got a Steam Deck. I've owned a lot of VR headsets, and I have an Index, none of them have the visual clarity or vivid colors of the Nreal Airs and I would definitely use them over any VR headset for a "large screen" experience in your pocket.

Disappointing Pie posted:Ya'll actually playing Elden Ring on the deck? Been thinking about diving back into it. But it almost feels too immersive a game for that little screen yeah? I dunno. I'd mainly want to play for Crossplay with PC but last time I tried the PC version a month or two ago it was still pretty janky. Plays better on Deck than (Windows) PC, not kidding. It ran fine on my PC too because I was playing it with Linux Proton just like the Deck - Proton shares precompiled shaders so you lose the stuttering that you get under Windows. Run it in the Deck's 40 fps cap mode, it's smooth and pretty. Use your headphones, some of the soundtrack doesn't make it through the speakers, also some wind noise. That's about the only fidelity complaint I had, nothing on the graphics/playability side.

Another awesome Deck game I just rediscovered is Sonic All Star Racing Transformed. It was the best of the Sonic racing games and comes closest to matching the Mario Kart formula. I honestly like a lot of it’s tracks better than MK8, but the weapons and combat are so so. Still an amazing game, even with the gimmicky transformation sections.

I just installed EmuDeck and dropped roms in the rom folder and the bios in the bios folder, ran the steam rom thing and it worked great. Sometimes you have to run the emulator first or change controls but thats it. the main emulators even have the binds for save/load state already set up

Since I've seen it mentioned a few times how do you do the 40 fps cap? The only performance options I see in the deck's profile allows for 30, 60, or uncapped. I've been playing at 60 and absolutely don't think I'd notice the difference between 40 and 60
