Kvlt! posted:Hey just wanted to say thank you for this. I'm going through some health problems right now so I got a Steam Deck and was looking for something like this to play, and my deck is arriving Tuesday i cant wait to boot this up!! Made my day Thanks, and get well! I'm home alone this week so got to play pretty much all weekend with it, and other than a few tweaks to make (e.g. decoys that come later in the war, or realizing the hard left/right turn commands ARE useful) it works fantastically. It's now "SH3 Command Deck v4" on the Community Layouts, but I think that's the last change. Silent Hunter 4 changes a few bindings, but it transfers over without major issues and only a few adjustments. I've played that a lot less, so a bit more testing to do before I'll send that one up too. --- As for modding, getting SH3Commander installed is fairly easy: - Open Discover and install protontricks, download the SH3Commander installer, and right-click run the .exe with protontricks. - When it opens choose the Silent Hunter III prefix, and it should start the installer. Default location is in program files, in SH3's wine/proton "prefix" which is the imaginary-Windows install that the game runs within. - I run Protontricks (and select default prefix first) to either "Browse files" to where the prefix's files are stored on your drive and right-click/run SH3Cmdr.exe with protontricks, or "Run Explorer" to open a proto-explorer window that you can use to browse around the windows-like file structure. Either way you can run SH3Cmdr.exe that way, to do whatever SH3Commander lets you do. I just used it to disable the fatigue model. A note on GWX3: You can use the same principles to run the GWX3 .exe installer to lay it over your Silent Hunter 3 steamapps folder, but my experience with the mod itself has been a little....goofy. For me, despite clean installs, the Kiel/Wilhelmshaven 1939 starts crash to desktop during loading. Konigsberg works fine, and the other years also seem to work fine. Annoyingly, they change the Fire Torpedo command to Ctrl+Enter, so if you get this far you'll want to change the binding on the X button in the controller scheme to account for it.

Major disadvantage of the OLED Deck: The vent doesn't get as strong of an aroma when playing Pokemon.

Finally finished Dave the diver. It's about 5-10 hours longer than it needs to be but mostly enjoyable. I don't think I'll touch it again though. The mini games were ridiculous. It felt like it had every type imaginable. Onto the next deck conquest!

Cant wait for the Godzilla DLC.

Playing danganronpa 2 right now and every time I wake up the deck the sound is gone :/ was especially annoying when I was playing on the train and had to restart the game every time I had to put the deck down for even a little bit.

Any good wargames? I'm looking at the Second Front for now but it seems like the most generic of generic settings humanly possible

Can you define war games? Do you mean turn-based strategy? Or real time a la Total War?

Turn based or hex ideally set in cold war but can be ww2 as well, especially if it's french or polish or some other non generic front. I've been thinking about open general 2 or panzer corps gold on gog. I feel as if I am aware of pretty much every rts that has more than 1000 sales and rest are the same.

I saw some war themed turn-based ganrs in the listing's that might interest you.

Actually might not be a bad idea to stray from the sweaty realistic wargame and try something completely different. The game you reccomended looks real nice.

Random general deck complaint: its way too easy to hit the sleep mode when I'm just trying to plug in the charger Random specific deck complaint: why doesnt the D-pad switch directionally between cards in Cultist Simulator, that would fix the game's deck playability like tenfold

The best thing about a steam deck is going "man this control is annoying, who the gently caress uses this button for that?" and then hitting the steam menu and fixing that poo poo to your liking.

Yeah I was reading a review that was complaining about stick clicks for running and no ability to rebind. Not a problem with the deck!

why would you buy anything for switch that's on deck unless it's like one of the two games that have nintendo exclusive dlc like necrodancer

they want to play for more than 2 hours of battery and on a machine that doesn't weigh 2kgs?

/\/\ Yeah that's kind of what I was thinking tooSuper No Vacancy posted:why would you buy anything for switch that's on deck unless it's like one of the two games that have nintendo exclusive dlc like necrodancer Hm, I guess they cost the same. I don't know, I like the switch form factor with the hori mini split pad and the screen is nicer.

hit the gym so you can lift the deck without some third party assistance device imo

genuinely though if you buy it on steam it is likely to be available on all your devices near-forever and while theres a good chance the switch one might be playable next generation i wouldnt bet on anything after that
