Truga posted:i think your proton settings got reset somehow. go into steam settings, compatibility tab, and "Enable Steam Play for all other titles" Oh, wow thanks! This did it, and I probably never would have fixed this on my own because it's in the developers tab on my deck for some reason and I never would have gone in there if I didn't know I looking for someone I couldn't find anywhere else (enable steam play). Not sure how I even disabled that in the first place but you saved my week for sure. Thanks again!

Medullah posted:Yeah when my deck is in desktop mode I can't connect period, and when I connect in Steam mode as soon as I swap to desktop mode it disconnects me. I'll try out anydesk. Apologies if this is a stupid question, but when you switch to desktop mode, do you have the desktop mode version of Steam running? Just out of curiosity; the general recommendation I always heard was that anydesk was superior overall.

I asked the same thing and apparently there is a user control mapping you can install that puts the wiggle and rotate of the harpoons on the back buttons. I haven't had time to figure out how to find and install that though.

Insanite posted:It does regularly involve rapidly moving the left joystick L <-> R, though, which can be difficult depending on how I'm positioned and also makes me fear that I'm sapping life from the joystick prematurely. Not a turbo, but I made the left trackpad output left joystick, and brushing back and forth on that at least made me happy that I wasn't jackin' my joystick around.

My kid is 1 and I'm finally out of the "haha you can NEVER play a game" land & I'm about to start a work from home job. Seems like a great time to buy. A few years down the road, but it's nice having the Deck when it's the kid's TV time. Also Humongous Entertainment Pack Metamorphabet A Little to the Left have been fun together.

I believe it's up to the game if the settings get captured in the Steam cloud saves or not, so I don't exactly know if there IS a way

It's Summer Bezos Fest over on Amazon, no super compelling deals on 2230 SSDs that I can find (a sweet discount on SHARKSPEED ones that.. end up costing more than the Corsair MP600 line) but if you want a smoking 15% off some JSAUX stuff or better on more general PC/gaming peripherals (I'm getting a mouse and some simracing poo poo I think) today is one of the days of all time.

Good time to grab an extra 45w charger (or two). My fiancé bought me a knockoff dock and it works pretty good so I need a power brick for it now. Still don’t quite “get” the need for a dock but for playing simpler games on the TV it’s neat, I guess.

The deck really needs another USB-C port on the bottom, so you can set it in a dock like the switch. Also it needs two USB-C ports because if one breaks the whole system is junk

Does anyone have any recommendations for good retro (or retro-styled) games they like to play on the Deck? So far, I've played: Dig Dug Galaga (  I forgot how much I loved this game)Pac Man Pac Man Deluxe Championship Edition Super holy crap whoa And I'm aware of the Atari 50th Anniversary thingy, I'll get that sometime. Last week, I was at an arcade with my sons and they had their equivalent of a Playchoice 10, and it had Pac Man, Ms Pac Man, Donkey Kong 1-Jr-3, Dig Dug, Galaga, Galaxian, and maybe a few others. I dropped more credits into that than I expected and it really gave me an itch for classic retro games. I also have the Contra, Castlevania and Mega Man collections. Is Elevator Action Returns pretty good?

Commander Keene posted:Probably because some games have FSR2.0 implementations built in, and it's better to use that than the FSR1.0 the Deck uses. Also 2D games generally look better with one of the other scaling options IMO. Also also there's a (slight, but sometimes noticeable) performance hit for using FSR and they probably didn't want to assume that everyone would want to use the most expensive option all the time. Also because in order for an upscaling algorithm to be useful you have to run the game below native resolution and plenty of games can run at full resolution on the Deck. And because the correct way to do upscaling is in the game itself, dynamically at runtime based on the current frame rate, and before the game's UI gets drawn.

It rules, definitely one of the first things I play whenever I find an emulation thing in front of me. edit: as for Deck USB-C/docking wise I think Nintendo just have a patent for the way the Switch goes in its dock so everyone else gets to figure out some other weird way of doing it. It might just be the way the dock automagically disables the connected joycons and kicks the thing into high performance mode though, I'm not a lawyer all I know is there's drawings and diagrams of the Switch going in the dock in their Switch-related patents.

The bigger issue is that if you put the Deck's USB port on the bottom in such a way that it's "obvious" to make a dock that works the way the Switch's does, then people will do it, do a bad job of it, and now you have Decks with damaged USB ports. By putting the port on the top, everyone is going to make docks with a short cable which is much easier to design correctly. Also, I pretty frequently play my Deck using a battery pack and having the cable come out the top instead of the bottom is definitely more convenient. That said, I wouldn't have complained if they put in two ports, one on the top and another on the bottom.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:Does anyone have any recommendations for good retro (or retro-styled) games they like to play on the Deck? I've recently started making a bit of a pivot towards those types of games as well. Really love the idea of turning my Deck into a bit of a portable arcade machine. I've come out of this sale with Huntdown, Cuphead, Metal Slug 3, Buck Up and Drive! and the Streets of Rage 4 DLC. Not all of those are an exact fit for what you're after or might be new/indie games rather than old classics, but they fit the "coin op style" space I've been looking for recently.

Cuphead, while incredibly charming, extremely well-presented, and lovingly made, can go gently caress itself. I love Contra. I love Gunstar Heroes. I hate playing Cuphead. It is frustratingly difficult.

cuphead is a perfect game, one of the best of all time tbh, but you really have to be okay with losing 50 times in a row in a seemingly hopeless fight before you squeeze out a win. if you don't have this kind of brain it's definitely not for you.
