beep by grandpa posted:Whats the advantage of moonlight/sunshine from using the steamlink app to stream? Ive never heard of these before the last page I'm rare apparently in that Steam's built-in streaming works really well for me, but the universal take is that it's practically latency-less and higher visual quality than Steam's. Frankly, the loss of Steam Input is a dealbreaker for me. I played with Moonlight a while, but I don't really think it's worth it for myself.

Ineffiable posted:Got a quick guide on how to get mods like that? I assume they're for the remaster edition. https://www.nexusmods.com/darksoulsremastered/mods/86 https://www.nexusmods.com/darksouls/mods/1407 The item randomizer has a separate entry on Nexus for the Prepare to Die edition and the enemy randomizer is good for both, the only difference on PTDE is that you have to unpack the game files first using another mod; you don't have to do that on Remastered so I'd just use that one. The install for Remastered is literally just: - Copy the zip contents to the Dark Souls Remastered game folder under home > .steam > steam > steamapps > common > Dark Souls Remastered - Add the randomizer exe files to Steam in desktop mode, then go back to gaming mode, rename them to something nice in settings and change the Proton version to the latest stable release - Set the control scheme for both to Controller Settings > Templates > Web Browser (usually near the bottom of the list), right trackpad moves the mouse and soft pull on the right trigger to click with these settings - Run Dark Souls once if it's a fresh install to get any first time install tasks cleared Then that's it, go to town. Descriptions of the randomizer settings are on the left so you can tweak them to your leisure, but the defaults should be fine if you just want to jump in. The main thing I make sure to set in the enemy randomizer are: - Making sure that bosses can be replaced with enemies and vice versa, so bosses appear in the world - Set Easy Asylum to on, unless you're feeling brave - Hostile NPCs enabled (so Andre, Undead Merchant, Vamos and Gough can be spawned as enemies) - Disable Respawning Mosquito Replacement (this can be a seriously bad time depending on what they're replaced with) You can also manually set which enemies spawn with Open Enemy Config Editor in the bottom right, but after saving the new config you'll need to map Alt-F4 (I put them on L4 and R4 respectively) in order to close the window and run the randomizer. Yes, you too can do the infamous Oops All Gwyn run that put Challenger Andy on the map, but I really wouldn't recommend it. One fun run I did was to spawn only bosses, but I disabled boss respawn so you could eventually clear out each area and have a chance of actually beating the game. Some of them just yeet themselves out of bounds, but enough remain to make it an absolute nightmare to get through. Doctor_Fruitbat fucked around with this message at 17:47 on Dec 20, 2023 |

I am setting up my kids PC in a few days and am going to make him a steam account with family link to mine so he can have access to my library. Is there a way to set it where he will have access to only certain games? Because I don't want to have him playing Cyberpunk for example.

UPS is saying my Deck arrives tomorrow, so I'll be spending the night before a 600 mile drive to Alabama loading this thing up and tinkering with it. I may or may not have become a tad obsessed.

Way back I posted here on how to get the Jak & Dexter and Ocarina of Time native ports running. Someone modded in 3DS models and stuff for Ship of Harkinian. After that other Zelda port got pulled I suggest grabbing these while they're up. https://gamebanana.com/mods/478711 https://gamebanana.com/mods/477979 Since then OpenGOAL has been expanded to support Jak 2, and has a Decky plugin for even easier installation. It's a fantastic port. https://opengoal.dev/ malnourish posted:The best 3D platformers are 3D land on the 3ds and Jak and Daxter Heran Bago fucked around with this message at 18:56 on Dec 20, 2023 |

njsykora posted:The controller plugin they use to translate controller inputs has also been abandoned by its dev so I wonder how much longer Sunshine has for this world. If you're talking about Vigembus, that's not exactly true. They got a trademark strike from a German company, and the vigemusb driver is end of life, but the current version is up to date as of a few months ago. There is a replacement currently in development by the same dev: https://docs.nefarius.at/projects/VirtualPad/

Question Mark Mound posted:This is the big rub for me. I prefer playing BG3 on gamepad and it just suddenly stopped working over Moonlight/Sunshine a few weeks ago and I haven’t been able to get it working since. Yeah, if steam's in-home streaming worked better (and actually resized the monitor resolution to match the deck or deck-docted-to-tv on wayland) then I'd use that. As is it drops tons of frames and is basically unusable if you have an ultrawidescreen on your desktop due to the aspect ratios not matching. Squiggle posted:I'm rare apparently in that Steam's built-in streaming works really well for me, but the universal take is that it's practically latency-less and higher visual quality than Steam's. I finally got flatpak Sunshine/Moonlight working between my F39 desktop and deck yesterday fully. Though only on X11 and not on Wayland. I'd recommend Moondeck Buddy (a Decky Loader plugin, you can find it in the plugin repo so no need to side load a github build or something) as it adds a single button to each of your games on your steamdeck to allow a one-click stream of it from your host PC. Assuming you use a compositor that allows it (aka not wayland) it'll also resize your host to the same resolution as your deck screen to prevent it from having to push more pixels than needed. If you setup wake-to-lan on your host PC you can even wake it up from the deck without having to walk over and turn it on. Though you'll probably still need to navigate the login screen if you have it password protected (like you should) The best thing about Moondeck Buddy though is that it'll pass through your deck controls as the controller on your host, so you should get full steamlink streaming control compatability, something you wouldn't get by going through Moonlight (best you can really get there is xbox or ps3 controller emulation of your steamdeck) Nitrousoxide fucked around with this message at 20:11 on Dec 20, 2023 |

Attempting PC streaming for the first time. Trying Fallout New Vegas from my PC that has a 3080 in it. I get the main menu screen fine  but as soon as I move the mouse I get this  and if I let it sit for a few seconds without moving the mouse it goes back to normal. Am I missing something in the setup of remote play?

This happens on Steam remote play and sunshine/moonlight, so idk. I have to completely disable HDR in my winders settings to get it to look right while streaming to Deck. I think this makes sense, since HDR (currently, at least) isn't being streamed. I had the same issue when I tried streaming from my HDR-enabled TV (when my PC was using my TV as a monitor). I was able to address this by turning HDR off on the monitor being streamed. There's a program you can use that will automatically change things like display settings when you run certain programs - https://github.com/Codectory/AutoActions (it actually uses HDR as the main example, and I believe comes with a profile for turning HDR on/off) I have it set up to make sure my monitor isn't HDR when the streaming program runs (and it can change back to HDR when the program stops running).

I am transferring some large files from my desktop to my Deck. They're both wired to the same LAN using CAT-6 cables and a good quality router + switch, yet I am transferring only at about 11.5 MiB/s. I am transferring the files directly to the Deck's MicroSD card. Is the slow speed bottlenecked by MicroSD write speeds? Why isn't this faster?

Almost definitely - but you could test that theory by moving something big to the deck drive as a test, see how fast/slow it hauls.

I have a game that tried to do an update yesterday on the SD card and it took fuckin forever.

So I love Shadows of Doubt but I can't seem to find a control scheme that works. I know the dev said that they'd put more time into controller support and all that, but does anyone have a binding that they like? Bonus points if it uses the actual on-screen buttons, and not like saying "Press C to Crouch" and it's LB on the deck.

The new version of Proton Experimental is supposed to get HDR working on THPS 1+2, but it seems only for the Steam version. I have the Epic version running via Heroic and still no dice. Tried a bunch of things and it will not activate on my SD Oled.
