Hi all, just a quick highlight for you with the #SteamDeck Plugin Loader using the QuickLaunch plugin. This gives you a list of Flatpak apps installed in desktop mode via Discover, so no need to add each manually to Steam.Install instructions: https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/PluginLoaderThe plugin https://github.com/Fisch03/SDH-QuickLaunch (install it via the store icon inside the Plugin Loader)Follow me: https://twitter.com/gamingonlinuxRead news: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/Watch live: https://www.twitch.tv/gamingonlinuxThrow coins at me like I'm your Witcher: https://www.patreon.com/liamdaweJoin Discord: https://discord.gg/AghnYbMjYg

@@arslanzire4430 Hi, im the developer of the plugin. This is a known issue and i am working on it. If you have this bug, delete both of the "QuickLaunch" Shortcuts it creates (the duplicate one is the problem). Then restart the Steam Client by holding down the Power Button and selecting the option.

@@gamingonlinux sadly didn't work so I'm going to have to do some troubleshooting as to why it wouldn't want to launch.

I am in the same boat and restarting didn't work as suggested by Gaming on Linux. Did you find a fix?

[ 2022-05-30 17:43:49Z ] 👍 2

Try using the Restart Steam Client option when you hold down the power button, there's a few weird issues atm.

I'm a bit confused. Will this allow me to launch say...Ubisoft Connect, log in then switch back to steam and launch the original Watch Dogs game? Same with EA Origin and its games?

It will not.

Hey Liam, just a quick question: is your library blocked (for, example, family sharing) while using plugins like QuickLaunch? Thank you for your great Infos!

[ 2022-05-30 23:51:28Z ] 👍 1

Pretty sure it wont be. Afaik, Steam only blocks your library if you specifically start a paid game. Since this only uses Shortcuts (which don't count as paid Games whatsoever) it shouldn't be an issue!

Nice! I just bought my Steam deck finally. This thing is looking so much better than when it launched!

Hey Liam. QuickLaunch is indeed such a huge time saver. As for launching more than one thing at a time, there's that toggle on the bottom that when enabled, it doesn't edit and start the "QuickLaunch" entry, but makes a new one using the app name. That way you can one-click add the ones you launch often to the library permanently and launch them at the same time too! -IrisNebula

Albeit a time saver, I think adding software – especially games – to fit right into the SteamOS overlay is visually far more pleasing. But that's just me I guess. :D I might use it for non-gaming software though.

That was what i had in mind when developing this - Quick access to stuff you don't want to add to the Steam Library :)

I mean, that's the point. It _is_ a handheld gaming PC.

Wish multitasking was more supported on deck, maybe as it ages...

i am hearing this program is causing a lot of stability issues on the steam Deck i wouldn't install it. if you are still having freezes on the overlay of the steam Deck, then delete this program.

The store is blank just shows an example plugin. Can't search for quick launcher. Any idea how to fix this. I've uninstall the plugin?

I have decky installed on the steam deck is that the updated version of plugin loader? I couldn’t find a cheat engine plugin unless it has to be added manually

I can't find the QuickLaunch plugin in the Decky Loader store. Did it get removed?
