More #SteamDeck testing of #thelastofus with the 1.0.5 patch and it's a huge improvement. However, it's another game that has the RAM-crash problem but you may be able to use CryoUtilities to help that: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2023/02/cryoutilities-2-boosts-steam-deck-performance/Buy from Humble Store with my partner link to support the channel: https://www.humblebundle.com/store?partner=gamingonlinuxFollow me in these places:Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@gamingonlinuxTwitter: https://www.twitter.com/gamingonlinuxRead news: https://www.gamingonlinux.com  Support me: https://www.patreon.com/liamdawe  Join Discord: https://discord.gg/AghnYbMjYgA reminder: this channel and the content is done entirely by one person.

Can't recommen chiaki and the forked versions enough for TLoU/TLoU II and their remasters for streaming from a console. TLoUII you'll have tonuse the forked version of Chiaki to be able to strun the gee tar but I just played those parts on console myself. Shame this port not running well on SteamDeck but appear Devs are motivated and acrively working on resolutions I'm sure they were beholden to the release date after HBO Season 1 concluded.

Yeah I’ve been using chiaki to play RDR2 and Ghost of Tsushima in far better quality than possible natively on steam deck. Anyone who wants customizable handheld gaming who also owns a ps4 or 5 should consider steam deck a no brainer.

@@ThePsychoticWombat the ps4 version was the remastered, not a simple port like you often see, ps3 games have an entirely different architecture from it's successors, its why PS3 games on PS Plus have to be streamed on the cloud, devs do not want to even touch PS3 games... it may play similar but it still had to be built from scratch. All we are saying is the PS3 version is not the one to be porting, it's the ps4 remaster that is easier and is essentially what you're after.

@@xKayNee 🤔 What are you on about? The PS4 version, (not the later remaster) was barely changed from the PS3 one apart from framerate and resolution, I seriously doubt they had to rewrite much, yeah the PS3 is weird, but they probably just mapped all the SPU functions to cores/threads and called it a day. And all the "oh, we spent so much time rewriting this for PS4" is just Sony trying to justify to you paying full price for old games.

@@ThePsychoticWombat PS3 game wasn't ported, it was redone and made better on the PS4. PS3 games are almost impossible to port, which is why almost every good ps3 title had to be redone and remastered, not a straight up port.

PS3 is one hell of console to develop with. Doing a port directly from PS3 probably is harder than the PS5 port we got. Maybe the PS4 remaster is easier to port instead? I’m assuming that was a pain in the arse to do.

Why is the CPU usage so high even when absolutely nothing is happening on screen? The PS4's CPU was way worse than the Steam Deck's CPU but it can run The Last Of Us 2 at a perfectly locked 30 fps on the same engine. What the hell happened here???

Bad optimisation for linux, good optimisation for console

[ 2023-05-10 15:51:18Z ] 👍 1

This is a port of the PS5 version, which they clearly only optimized for PS5 and nothing else. It's not like the Steam Deck is alone in these issues. Many desktop PCs are struggling with it too.

I'm giving it some more time in the oven to bake. I have a save point in the open world where there will still be dips to 20 fps. I'm happy they are aggressive with these patches but still some room to consider an enjoyable experience

That frame time graph is a nightmare. A few questions. -Are you using cryobyte utility? I feel like that would help a lot in this game. -are you using in game vsync and frame cap? Or steam os? I would think steam os cap would make it a lot more stable.

[ 2023-05-10 19:31:15Z ] 👍 2

@@mrsittingmongoose Yeah in my experience most in game frame caps result in super erratic framepacing where as setting to unlimited in game and using steamOS refresh cap results in smooth frametimes almost always

[ 2023-05-10 16:53:45Z ] 👍 1

@@gamingonlinux to the second point, I often find in troublesome games, like Hogwarts legacy that the steam os cap tends to product much smoother results. More often than not, in game caps are not implemented correctly, and I wouldn’t be surprised if that is the case for this game considering how much of a mess it was. A really strong example of this is halo infinite which had a bad implementation of vsync, hdr, vrr, AND fps cap AND drs. So you really never know. …unless you tried it already,

[ 2023-05-10 16:49:19Z ] 👍 0

1) No, it's mentioned in the video. 2) Capped to 30FPS in-game. In-game FPS cap generally works better than the one in SteamOS, since it's external.

[ 2023-05-10 17:10:02Z ]👍 2

I'm one of the people who gets the memory crash, Basically as soon as you hit 14GB usage, it slows to 3 - 4 fps then freezes, then I get a system crash a few seconds later. I actually finished LoU and the DLC on my Steam Deck. Patch 1.04 was released while I was finishing off Left Behind. The performance with 1.05 is better and the visuals are much better, but the crashes happen more frequently and more quickly. I used to get about 45 mins of play time before a crash. now it's more like 15 - 20 mins, even less if there are cut scenes between the action. I still love the game, but compared to something like Zero Dawn (which I am now playing) the performance and requirements are out of alignment with one another IMHO.

Thanks so much for this update. I wanted to buy at launch, but have held off due to the bad reviews. I've kept up with the patch notes, but without being able to test it, it's difficult to determine when to buy. Your videos are so helpful, thank you!

Not 100% certain, but I think rdr2's latest steam update may have fixed the water physics issue causing a seemingly 30 fps cap. I was playing it with proton experimental with all the lowest water settings. I thought it would be worth checking out.

CPU issue. Does it all the time. Very frustrating. Could be 5 minutes could be 2 hrs then bam the whole steam deck locks up. Does it the most trying to watch a movie using VLC . Diablo 3 usually 2hrs of game play before it happens. Waiting for 3.5 🤞

It’s not a CPU issue, as mentioned in the video it’s a RAM issue. Likely an issue in the Linux kernel that a future SteamOS update may solve.
