Woah, Cachy sounds sick! How does the gaming mode perform in your experience? Is it effectively the same as the deck’s vanilla game mode? 🤔 very tempted to give it a shot myself!
I use Stearch btw
I just found this!
https://github.com/steam-deck-controller/steam-deck-controller
Looks like a project to basically cram the steam Deck components into a 3dprinted shell - but it isn’t finished yet!
There’s a proof of concept video in there where it’s shown connected to a PC with a standard USB ribbon pinned to a 2.0 A head… Might have to give it a go someday!
Dude, seriously!! I really do hope this becomes a thing. I would LOVE to have a controller that mimicks the steam deck’s controls, but without a screen… That SteamVR leak looks like that’s basically exactly what it is!! 😭 PLEASE, valve!

Excellent

I dug into this a bit and couldn’t find and easily locatable guides to setting this up on Deck (at least, not without disabling the read-only protections of the system), and I ended up finding Boxes, made by Gnome! It didn’t seem to want to download Debian on its own, but I just downloaded it from Debian.org and it was installed in like 10 minutes! Couldn’t believe how easy it was - and all with a single flatpak app! 😃
Thanks! Definitely true about the reinstall! I guess in my case I worry it’ll cause a hard crash right when I’m too kaput from a long day to go troubleshoot, and just wanna drop into a relaxing game before bed, ya know? Like at that point I’m just gonna sleep early and fix it another day lol. It’s nice to have an ultra-reliable gaming rig around, and without tampering with CSS the steam Deck is certainly that!
The artwork plugin is another one I hadn’t used, since I figured I’d have to find & sideload images on my own – I didn’t realize it has crowd-sourced submissions to pick from!! Makes it infinitely worth installing!
I’ve been resisting installing decky since my last (LCD) Steam Deck ended up a bit janky from too many mods 😅 but this post inspired me to make the jump and install the CSS loader for the first time!
I leaned super hard into the OLED’s blacks and picked red as an accent, since saturated red really ‘pops’ on an OLED screen. I think it turned out pretty nice!!
Love this!
modded from other sources
True! But depending on the obscurity of the app it can be hard to find non-malware versions of such modded apps.
Scan your sus APKs, folks! Its fast and free – Virustotal.com does a pretty good job 🙂 I’ve caught a coupla apk Trojans there in the past!
Oh my god. This is beautiful.
Thank you, fellow lemites. I have assimilated this autism into my own.
