History Comes Inside! posted:When you say they’re not scaling do you mean they’re literally running in a 640x480 box in the corner or is it centred and stretched to fit top and bottom with black bars either side? The latter is the best you’re gonna get out of the box. Some lovely phone pictures to illustrate. It's centered within the Deck screen. I'm not looking for it to go widescreen, just scale to the Deck's screen. As a point of comparison (not a good one I know) if you fire it up on Windows it scales vertically and has black bars on the sides without any further configuration.   I did load up one of the ddraw replacers (there's a fork of the XWA ddraw replacer that adds support for the other games here) but it doesn't seem to affect anything. If I can fix this issue I think they will be really great to play on the Deck. I might try to load up Freespace 2 SCP and see how that runs too.

So apparently the RetroAchievements.com API is down. But the folks on the EmuDeck Discord said you can still earn the achievements, it just won't pop up in game? However, I'm getting an invalid user token error. It's clearly related to the emulator, since I un-installed the RetroAchievements decky plugin, but I don't know how to fix it  Where is the login info stored?

There was another handheld gaming PC with detachable joycon-like controllers, but they didn’t work when detached so what was even the point?

Every other setting fills the screen just fine. integer means it scales each pixel by 1x, 2x, 3x etc. so everything is always pixel perfect. sometimes you get annoying situations like this where the 1x resolution is very tiny but the 2x resolution is too big to fit so it has to go with 1x

Wtf, why is my "other" section in storage on my SSD 59GB?!  To be clear, I have maybe 20 roms installed, all NES/SNES. I've uninstalled (and emptied the trash of) Timesplitters 2, 3, Burnout 3, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, and the Metroid Prime Trilogy, which I had previously had downloaded. All told, THAT was less than 15gb. The 59GB was after that stuff was removed. What could possibly be taking up that space? The only thing I could think of would be custom artwork for titles, thanks to a plugin. Maybe startup movies? I'll delete a bunch of those tonight but I really only have maybe 6-7 of them.

Your Computer posted:https://store.steampowered.com/app/2008980/XENOTILT_HOSTILE_PINBALL_ACTION/ this just appeared and now i realize i need something like the flip grip for the steam deck I checked my shader cache with the Deck Cleaner utility, and it's currently around 8gb. So Steam OS is around 10gb (is that classified in Other?), shader cache is 8-ish gigs, let's just round all of that up to 20gb. What the hell is taking up the rest of that space? Save games? I mainly play BG3, GTA Online, and then smaller games, though I did just reinstall Doom Eternal (which is what brought all of this up, me trying to find space to download it to). Better question; what is the best way to check this space? Is there a way, in desktop mode, I can literally just see what my largest folder is? Not necessarily interested in the largest files, because it could be a huge collection of somewhat large files altogether rather than a few that are 5gb+.

BoldFace posted:That's a neat looking design, I'll give them that. The controllers don't look as good as the deck's, but I appreciate they're detachable. Not just for utility but it means that if you gotta send it in for repair you can just send the controller part in and still get to use the system itself.

I used this for Doom Eternal https://steamdeckhq.com/game-reviews/doom-eternal/ ProtonDB has community sourced compatibility ratings, and users usually comment on what settings worked best for them. Not sure if there's a more organized settings database however.

kneelbeforezog posted:Can someone link a guide on how to get into romhacks for pokemon? https://gaminggorilla.com/best-pokemon-rom-hacks/ Mostly romhacks provide a patch file - commonly ".ips". You will be required to provide your own legally dumped ROM file 😉 Use a program like LIPS to apply that patch, and go wild. Some hacks won't work with certain emulators, or use a different patching method, but the README should instruct you. For my recommendation, I like Pokémon Prism and Pokémon Sacred Gold.

It also has down firing speakers which at this point is an immediate failing grade and a horrible looking circular d-pad.  *new relative to posting time, I think they've announced 2 more models in the last few days. njsykora fucked around with this message at 13:38 on Aug 17, 2023 |

Hmm. Two Steam Decks, you say? Would my wife and I both be able to play games from my account at the same time? Would there be specific restrictions (like not the same game at the same time but different games at the same time?) My computer became awfully contended the first time Cyberpunk came out, and she hasn't really seen BG3 yet. njsykora posted:The true Vampire Survivors killer has arrived, Holocure is on Steam and works perfectly on the Deck.

From the same account? I think it would require one of them to play in offline mode, and then be careful you don’t accidentally overwrite the saves with cloud sync
