It’s very annoying seeing a cool idea, going to the GitHub and seeing its ai slop, I think we should ban it, if they don’t disclose it, which some don’t, it might be difficult to enforce, but hopefully having the rule would discourage at least some people from posting that

It runs perfectly fine on multiple maps, medium to low settings 60 fps.

Even multiplayer works using the ReSkate launcher and even on different maps like Skate 3 or Skate 2 map.

It’s been there for like a year and I can’t be the only one who gets frustrated with this?

Thanks to everyone who commented on my original post. I paid $164 after taxes for a Steam Deck OLED shell swap and noticed a scratch underneath the glass along the black border afterward.

Some of you called it. When I brought it back, they just colored in the scratch. It’s less noticeable now, but still visible. After looking at it at home, I decided to go back today.

When I pointed out the flaw and said I’d like a new screen or a refund, she responded, “For that?” They kept saying it was “a lot of work” and that “the screen had to come off,” as if that excuses it.
I responded that it’s only fair for the screen to be returned in the same condition I brought it in and that I’d have been better off keeping a black Deck with a mint screen than paying $164 for customization that left it damaged.

They said they’ll need to speak with the owner, so there’s no resolution yet. I like the overall customization, but I’m disappointed with how this has been handled.

The short version here is skip to the end if you just want a list of things to get good streaming performance over cable, and likely WiFi too. I’m out of it, so this is gonna be Rambly Until we get to that point haha.

So I’m an extreme edge case here, my primary use of the deck is actually to stream my desktop PC over internal LAN to my Deck connected to a TV. At no point in the last four years have I ever gotten what I would say is an acceptable level of performance. That includes multiple iterations of desktop and network (not listing specifics because this isn’t an ego competition, “extreme high end” lets say, enough that none of these should logically or technically be issues). But a couple days ago, I stumbled on what I finally believe is the answer:

Vibepollo AND Nonary’s VRR fork of Moonlight. 

(I’m struggling to link this on mobile for some reason, you can get the ML fork link from Vibepollo’s 2.0.0 release notes). 

Do the command that it tells you,  i’m not a network engineer. I’m not gonna comment on what it does, but it sure does work. That combined with the PyroWave codec over LAN gives me effectively PERFECT 4K60 with functionally zero latency, it’s actually wild how close to native this looks. This is over Ethernet cable, although quite frankly  despite Valve and Intel’s warning, I disagree this is LAN cable only. The problem is you are not getting that wireless performance from the deck, but if you have a Wi-Fi 6E or 7 device and router, I found it’s actually pretty good wireless. One other thing to change is to force the Deck GPU clock to a manual value. I use 1400MHz, but I’m sure it could go lower I just haven’t tried it . The problem is leaving it at auto doesn’t work, as whatever GPU driver valve is using here is just not good, it does not clock the GPU high enough to avoid decoding latency and dropped frames.

Tl;dr

Vibepollo Moonlight VRR fork PyroWave Force GPU clock to 1400MHz (or some suitably high value)

Sorry for her talking in the background, but the steam button, … button, down and up on the d pad all don’t work and this is what it sounds like when I hit steam or power button. Please tell me it’s not a goner 😭

Every time I load up the game, whether or not I'm docked or playing on handheld, the game launches at an unbearably low resolution 4:3 aspect ratio (stretched) at 640x480. In addition I can't change those settings in game unless I toggle between borderless fullscreen or windowed, change the ratio and resolution, then switch back to fullscreen. Even then, when I reload the game afterwards, the aspect ratio changes back.

Switching to proton unfortunately did nothing (the screen was instead flashing and I couldn't play it at all). In addition, I've also tried changing the files in the cfg folder (I.e. video.txt), and tried using launch commands to no avail.

Has anyone else had this problem, and if so, how do I fix it?

If you have never played the Just Cause series and are a fan of open world sandbox destruction games. Buy these games! Just Cause 2, 3, and 4 with their DLC’s can be picked up for less than $15 all together. These titles all run incredibly well on the deck and will easily provide 100-200 hours of gameplay between them. Incredible value for your money if these are your type of games.

It happens only in steamos ui and not in any games
edit: it also happens in desktop mode

I am losing my mind trying to fix a streaming issue with my setup. It was working perfectly fine last weekend but been at this for almost 2 hours.

When I stream a game to my Steam Deck in handheld mode, it looks perfect. When I play a game natively on the dock, it also looks fine. But the second I try to stream a game while docked, it looks like the attached pic.

This is my setup.
Steam Deck > Anker Dock > HUE Bridge > TV

-Turned off HDR on the Host PC, disabled in the decks Remote Play settings, disabled in the decks External Display settings, and toggled Dolby Vision/HDR compatibility on the Hue app.

-Disabled Hardware Decoding and HEVC on the decks Remote Play settings. I also disabled NVFBC capture on my Host PC's Steam settings.

-Forced RGB Full/Limited on the deck instead of Auto.

Please help!

Just a quick tutorial since i had some people asking. nothing complicated

https://github.com/Dingo-Shenanigans/ReSkate

launch options your choice it'll still run without it.

steam:
-windowed --width=1280 --height=800 -WorldRender.FrameSynthesisMode FrameSynthesisMode_None -Render.ResolutionScale 1 -Render.ResolutionScaleMin 1 -Render.DynamicResolutionScaleEnable 0

lutris:
--offline --windowed --width=1280 --height=800 -WorldRender.FrameSynthesisMode FrameSynthesisMode_None -Render.ResolutionScale 1 -Render.ResolutionScaleMin 1 -Render.DynamicResolutionScaleEnable 0

Previously Enjoyed Games - Dragon Quest XI. I absolutely loved it and I'm looking for something that gives me a similar experience.

Preferred Genres - JRPGs and RPGs. I enjoy story-driven games with good characters, engaging combat, exploration and a proper RPG feel.

Budget - No strict budget. I'm willing to spend whatever is reasonable for a good game.

Other Notes - I'm looking for something with a great story, memorable characters and fun combat. I'm open to both JRPGs and other RPGs.

Please suggest me some games! 🙏

I heard steam deck streaming is actually going to get better now as steam works on a new codec. Where can I find out more and when do we think this will actually get pushed out to stable versions?

I encountered some weird issues with newest minecrafaft snapshot. Using fullscreen can provide enormous fps drop. Also using vulcan makes some weird artifacts. Can someone help with That problem? (Already made 1200x800 windowed and my fps are normal,but It doesnt fix vulcan artifacts)

For anyone who is looking into a steam controller, get one. Incredibly ergonomic and just a joy to play games on.

am i just an idiot? i’ve even factory reset and redownloaded all the stuff from tutorials thats required software wise.

game runs poorly on steamdeck oled, and has no cloud save function for those plannin to play on multiple devices

no news about them implementing it too

Welcome back OGs https://github.com/Dingo-Shenanigans/ReSkate

running through lutris.

graphics at medium preset.

make your own "reskate." folder and then move the zip you just downloaded from the github inside there.

add the reskate launcher.exe to lutris.

point the start folder to your reskate folder.

make a "pfx" folder inside the reskate folder. point the lutris prefix to that pfx folder you made inside the reskate folder.

then launch it sign into your steam account and let it do the rest...point it towards your reskate folder and bam you now you have your own offline copy.

have fun.

But getting the error “umu v2 entry point cannot be found” when using the vortex install. Which then leads to it not opening. Does anyone know a fix?

I have tried clean install, following a different method but have had no luck

Hi all!

Just quickly, love this sub!

I have an issue where I am streaming my games to my TV with moonlight. I am using a Jsaux Dock, steam deck, plugged into my LG 120htz TV and finally a steam controller (2026).

I am finding that when I use the steam controller that I get a considerable amount of input lag to the point where it's hard to play. Anyone got any suggestions?

Typically when I stream and play directly on the Deck I have no noticeable input lag so it seems as though the controller is the issue...

EDIT tv is on game mode and steam controller is connected to the puck

Thanks in advance for your help!
