Wait, so if you set a schedule it will still do downloads even if its in sleep mode?!

[ 2022-08-31 18:07:03Z ] 👍 0

@@mystertom100 It simply allows all the updates only to happen at given hours so if you launch it at any other time period the updates will be listed on the download page but they won't happen without your consent or the clock hitting the hour selected. Scheduling is pretty useless on PC too IMO but that's not the point we're making here.

@@mystertom100 it’s very useful. Exactly like I said in the video. You can use it to prevent all the automatic downloads whenever you load it up. Just because you may not find it useful doesn’t mean it’s not useful to many others.

@@gamingonlinux this is the only reason why I didn't understand the tip to be honest, scheduling pretty useless on the deck

No. The Steam Deck has no capability to update in sleep mode.

I would say GE Proton is an essential tool. Rage 2 is officially unsupported, but using GE Proton runs flawlessly

@@ezrafaulk3076 yeah, but do you want to.. berseria is at the bottom of my tales list, it's just a little too anime cringe. If that doesn't bother you though, I'm happy if you can get it to run. The beginning of the game is pretty amazing

You can even set buttons to launch and close corekeyboard. The closing is a bit janky because you have to set it to a mouse click on the region of the screen where the close keyboard button typically sits, so it will only work with one mode of the keyboard, but it works.

Life saver! Literally lost my “return to desktop” shortcut last night

Great tips, thank you! Will be checking out Core Keyboard straight away!

The first time you try to change the controls in desktop mode it may take over 2+ min for it to load so be patient.

This is good to know. I thought it was just making the desktop hang requiring a hard restart.

Does core keyboard delete the stuff you typed while you are using it because I love it when the official keyboard does that. Oh wow I just made a normal taskbar icon. I did not know you could move it to the other side that's cool. I thought it was "green ham gaming" am I wrong?

I appreciate you mentioning how the SteamOS FPS limiter shouldn't be used as it adds input latency, not enough people have been talking about this.

Super helpful! Thanks! It would be great to learn how to get the audio driver working on other distros installed on the deck; e.g., Ubuntu or Pop!_OS

I would avoid buying Steam Keys from 3rd party sites because of not having access to refunds if the game sucks or the game doesn't work on your system for any reason. However if it is a game that you know works without any issues then use any 3rd party site you want to. Yeah Proton GE is very good tool to have because of its higher compatibility with games especially games with cutscenes that don't work with the standard proton.

[ 2022-09-01 14:21:54Z ] 👍 0

That also includes Humble Store/ Humble Bundle. However, it would have no problems if someone owns a desktop or laptop PC with the GPU to handle the games

Will the deck update on a schedule even if its sleeping? Or are they queued until the next time the deck wakes up?

I must say that in almost all cases, using the Deck's FPS limiter results in much smoother frametimes compared to in-game limiters. Also, doesn't enabling V-Sync in the game settings re-introduce input latency?
