My Fedex estimate switched to "pending" on Sunday with no more delivery estimate, which is a new one for me. I'm not worried about it disappearing like my UK friends, just real goddamn eager now that I finally pulled the trigger on buying one in the first place. I bought Metal Gear Rising and Hades in anticipation and can't wait to play, although MGR is likely too big for the internet service on the farm. Housesitting for another week here, any suggestions for small downloads that are great Deck games? I was already thinking Streets of Rogue and Slay the Spire. And Stardew!

There's Tiny Combat Arena from the new Microprose, which is at least Gold-rated on protonDB for linux gaming, but there's surprisingly little Deck-specific info. I'd be curious if anyone took a crack at it how it runs. EDIT: Ace Combat 7 is Deck-verified! And seems to run REAL well. Squiggle fucked around with this message at 18:32 on Oct 10, 2022 |

Pipski posted:I was considering TCA or Project Wingman, but also couldn't find much info. I'll look at AC7 though, that seems like it's worth a shot. Ta! Project Wingman is an AWESOME game, and it apparently runs very well on the Deck, but the fonts are really small. The devs said earlier in the year that they kind of have to redo the whole UI but are working on it for Deck-verification, or if you've got good eyes it might still be worth giving it a shot.

Absolutely love the steam controller, glad to see it pretty much unchanged on the Deck.

Is it a safe assumption that if a 2D game slows down when the frame limiter is put on, that there's no chance it runs uncapped?

Big ups to the gyro. I think the gyro in the Steam Controller was a game changer. I swear, with the steam controller, the gyro as a supplement to FPS aiming with the right pad is really cool. The fine adjustments you can make quickly by slightly moving the controller make it easy to be more accurate than twin stick alone with just a little practice. Honestly, I'm surprised how intuitive it was once I started using it. (for the SC you just wanted to set it so that the gyro only worked if you had a thumb resting on the right pad. I'm hoping I can do the same with the right stick on the SD.) I used the gyro in mouse-games too, it was surprisingly easier to control the mouse cursor with controller gyro to the point where it was my main input when I played games like Stellaris or Cities Skylines on the TV in the living room with a steam controller, even though I still had mouse cursor movement on the right swipe pad.

My goon, anything you do to live a more active lifestyle so that you can Game for as many years as possible is never too convoluted. Figuring out that where I rest my arms on my stationary bike is exactly the width that I hold them while holding the SD was an excellent realization.

Kin posted:Has anyone played around with the deadzones for the sticks yet? I have! For Euro Truck Simulator 2, the deadzone was too big to make tiny tiny adjustments to the stick to stay within the lines as I'm driving, so I slashed the deadzone to like 10% of the default. That combined with setting the input curve to "Wide" instead of linear was enough to give me a nice and easy adjustment of the steering wheel by just barely pressuring the stick, while still being able to steer hard when I mean to.

Shouldn't break anything, and you've pretty much figured out the use case - it's really common advice to drop it down for low-impact games to preserve battery. For harder hitters, once I have all of my OTHER settings (like FPS limits) the way I want, I'll see how a game runs if I drop it down to 12 instead of 15. Usually, I don't see any difference.

Kin posted:Aha, I never thought about the Internet connection. There might have been stuff downloading on my network while I was using it. I can tell you I wound up with my Deck acting REAL similar to that yesterday after I was fuckin' with airplane mode to get around signing off on my other computer that I left MS flight sim running on. It was in airplane mode but still somehow knew/thought I had MSFS open on the other computer, so I rebooted it and it was fine in airplane mode after that. But when I woke it up for my next session and turned off airplane mode, the wifi got REAL fucky and game mode Steam in particular seemed to just poo poo the bed until I reconnected to wifi a few times and rebooted a few more. Real weird, but it went away. Eeyo posted:Alright problem of my own: I've experienced this back on the Steam Link/Controller - for whatever reason, occasionally changes I made to the controller profile I was using while playing the game would just get eaten as soon as I backed out of the controller interface. I modified in-use controls ALL THE TIME so I can't say why this happened a handful of times, but I'd usually have to back out of the game entirely to have changes to the controller menu stick, and sometimes reset Steam and the Link itself.

The UMA increase feels like it helps with emulation in particular for me, but it also causes a weird error in Red Dead Redemption 2 when there is water or rain/snow on screen and the FPS tanks and locks at 28fps. Ultimately, I set it back to 1gb. It doesn't increase the amount of video RAM that Steam can use, I believe it just increases the minimum RAM that is ever held by the video part.

Based on the reddit thread that ultimately led me to the fix it's not the only game it can happen to. It certainly helped Cyberpunk 2077 though, and it's easy enough to turn off and on.

Which is dumb because it was used in one of the trailers/commercials for the Deck. It's a great ~20 hour cinematic experience. I just got back from my first bout of holiday travel with the Deck, and it was the star of the trip. Hitman 3 runs shockingly well at medium-like settings, and still looks better than just about anything.

John Wick of Dogs posted:Is there a way to make the trackpad work in games without having to hold the steam button? That likely means the trackpad isn't bound to mouse in-game, so you'd have to go to the Steam overlay and then Controller Settings to edit your controller layout, then map the right trackpad (or left trackpad you psycho) to "Mouse" for that controller layout. I'm not sure if there's a way to blanket add a mapping to the "default" controls (maybe editing the templates, but a lot of games have their own default controls rather than using the template), so you'd pretty much have to do this per-game. Steam button+trackpad is like a..."emergency override" way of doing it. Same as Steam+X brings up the keyboard. Squiggle fucked around with this message at 16:39 on Dec 1, 2022 |

I believe that's the biggest community controller job called Easy Dwarf Fortress. Which works great! But I did some replacements: 1. Changed the Left Trigger to Middle Mouse, instead of Right Mouse. This makes it possible to scroll around the map easier by grippin' and rippin' 2. Changed the B Button to Right-Click instead of Esc. Esc is already on the Start button, and right-click is a better "Back" button than Esc.
