Happy Noodle Boy posted:Unless than OLED switched things up, the Deck doesnt go higher than 45W charging so no need to go that high on the brick. The steam deck will only charge with 15v power, so most 3rd party chargers won't get their rated power either. You need to explicitly check the 15vX number on the bottom and multiple the 2 to figure out the wattage it'll charge a steam deck at.

Detective No. 27 posted:Oh right, here’s a link to the Windows version for those interested. You can install the Windows version right now, which is probably all that twitter link is talking about. Download it in desktop mode from that link, unzip. Add non-steam game to steam, select that exe. It will complain about missing .net when you run it, click "ok" and download from the site it loads (6.0.25 specifically, if you wanna find it manually). Run that installer with the ProtonTricks Launcher (install Proton Tricks from Discover if you don't have it). Select the Link's Awakening from the list, and it'll install .net. Then you can just run the game from game mode. This is NOT doing the standard trick for these remakes of distributing JUST the port code and requiring you to supply assets. This is gonna be super C&D'd by Nintendo.

Annath posted:I dunno, how's that Mario 64 port still going? I thought it was all about some way of doing things that skirted around the copyright issues. Completely different situation - the N64 one requires you to provide a rom and download source code to compile it. This is just the entire game ported or recompiled to Windows, and it's 100% gonna get taken down as soon as Nintendo's lawyers finish whatever other copyright strike work they're doing today

Rosalind posted:I know I'm a little late to this revelation but chiaki4deck is amazing. Perfect 1080p HDR at 60 FPS with no choppiness or noticeable input lag whatsoever over a wireless connection. I was able to play Elden Ring and Diablo IV seamlessly. Did you have to do anything to get HDR? I upgraded to 1.5.0 this morning but the little HDR logo didn't show up on the brightness slider so it wasn't doing HDR AFAIK. Works on my TV, so it's probably not a PS5 thing. Either way, 1.5.0 has been a massive upgrade for me on chiaki4deck in performance, it was definitely kinda cruddy for me on 1.4.1, with the green/pink tone mapping issue randomly popping up and then occasional dips to single digit FPS for no reason. Seems massively smoother now, though.

Rolo posted:Can you link the exact steps? Go into desktop mode (Steam button, Power at the very bottom, select Desktop mode). Download the zip file from itch.io Extract the zip wherever you want the game to be, your home folder is fine. Add a non-steam game to steam from the steam ui, and then select the .exe inside the Link's Awakening. Edit properties on the game and force compatibility with Proton Experimental Run it from steam, it will pop up telling you it needs .net. Click "yes" or ok or whtever and it should open a browser page to download the exe. (install protontricks by going to the Discover store and searching "protontricks" then clicking install, if you haven't previously installed it) Right click on the .net installer you just downloaded and choose "Run with Protontricks launcher". It will pop up a list of steam games, select the Link's Awakening from the list. Run the game from Steam and it should work now. Exit the game. Return to Game mode via the link on the desktop. Launch the game from game mode. EVGA Longoria fucked around with this message at 20:52 on Dec 14, 2023 |

Rolo posted:I added it to steam as a non steam game but when I run it, it just thinks for a second then does nothing. Oh, yes, forgot that step, sorry, change properties on it and force compatibility. I think I used GE something ending in a 5? or maybe experimental?

Question Mark Mound posted:How did everyone make the transition to finding gyro controls anything but weird and uncomfortable? Is there a good practise game/setup I can sit down with for half an hour and make it all feel natural? Do you have more specific complaints than "weird and uncomfortable"? I generally prefer it activating on LT pull, so it's only active while I'm ADSing. There's a half dozen other suggested ways to use it ranging from slight modifications to a normal controller layout to completely remapping every control to better take advantage of all the inputs the Steam Deck offers.

Scuf gaming also makes one that I bought before I found out nursing pillows existed. It's inflatable but it's got a pretty decent covering, and it gets fairly compact when not in use. Stupidly overpriced, but if you're uncomfortable with a nursing pillow for whatever reason, it's an option.

Snackmar posted:Has anyone heard of game compatibility differences between the Steam Deck and the Steam Deck OLED? Logiart sound works fine on the OLED, at least mine. Steam Deck had some issue where games would get muted in the system volume mixer and you needed to boot to desktop mode to fix it somehow? Dunno the specifics, but doesn't seem to be a general OLED issue.

Schir posted:Really? When I was trying to play it this morning it was more like 18-25 with occasional drops down to single digits at 720p and minimum settings on everything else For some reason after a patch Palworld has switched from the Low preset to the Very high preset for me, which tanked my FPS down to that level. Changing it back to the bottom preset is much more playable, though it still dips below 30 sometimes.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:Wait wait.... I'm sitting here, missing Forza 4, reading y'all talk about GT4 running great in a PS2 emulator... How well does Xemu handle Forza 4? Xbox emulation is a lot less advanced than PS2 emulation, due to a lot of false starts. Definitely don't assume that if it worked on PS2 emu it'll work on Xbox emu, but it's certainly possible.

Annath posted:Isn't there some thing about how Steam OS handles windows programs where each program gets its own "copy" of "windows"? Specifically, anytime you use Wine (and Proton is just really fancy Wine, when you get down to it), it creates what's called a "prefix" which contains the Windows filesystem. I'm fairly sure that when you install something in a prefix inside wine the app it installed is in the same prefix, but it's been a long time since I've messed with this. I DO know that any time you need to install a library (like .NET libraries or directx or whatever) you need to use winetricks to run it in the correct context for your specific app (i.e. run it in the wine prefix). Also how you install mods when a game needs a mod manager exe instead of just replacing files manually.

Yeah, a quality LCD is perfectly fine for most people in a handheld, though OLED always looks gorgeous. The original deck LCD was not a quality screen, and had a lot of compromises.

I will be very surprised if the OLED even has a token 10% sale, it's new, it's hot, and the LCD deck took a year to go on sale.

njsykora posted:I think we should judge more games based on the Playstation it could run on. Only console with a reasonable naming scheme, to be fair. I'm curious if 6800u/7840u devices actually see a benefit in any of these CPU-bound games, given they've got 8 cores, or if the TDP is too big of a limit.

Doctor_Fruitbat posted:What are some good Outrun style racers, where you're pretty much on a focused sprint to the finish? I've been replaying Outrun 2 for the PSP and Super Hang On and Road Rash for the Megadrive for some reason despite them being really held back by their age, so I guess I'm in the mood for that kind of thing right now. Horizon Chase Turbo. There's a sequel that's (currently?) Epic exclusive too, but the original is pretty solid. The Hot Wheels Unleashed games are pretty fun racers, though less of the Outrun style, more just generally arcade-y.

USB-A cannot charge the steam deck, full stop. The deck uses 15v for charging, which USB-A cannot provide in-spec. Even if it could, it's not until you get to some manufacturer-specific extensions (aka not actual standards) that you get one that has the wattage to even appreciably slow the discharge speed of the steam deck. Get a USB-C power bank with some big batteries in it, it will be able to charge your phone/laptop/steam deck/whatever else for the next decade, USB-A is reaching its end of usefulness for actual electronics charging purposes.
