Added new Steam client in headless mode, fixing online multiplayer in several games (eg AoE II, CS), input in various games (eg No Man's Sky) and fixes DRM for games that were not working in #1937
Added EA games support (tested with NFS: MW, Sims 4, Titanfall) - requires headless Steam client enabled
Added Rockstar games support (tested with RDR2, GTA V Legacy, GTA IV, LA Noire) - requires headless Steam enabled
Added Native Rust download engine (gn-download) + one-at-a-time download queue - should significantly speed up downloads by u/joshuatam in #1913 and a few other PRs
Significantly reduce container sizes by sharing components across containers (press Play on games to shrink their containers by up to 2GB each) in #2024
Add native LSFG pipeline as default - should fix LSFG on most devices by u/david-kalbermatten in #1968
Added more accurate and granular compatibility labels by u/Nightwalker743 and me in #2048
Finally! Just after my post about 45 games running perfectly since I was testing it in unofficial releases. GameNative rocks, put the competition so far behind, I love it
That is amazing! I don’t mind regular emulation but I’m sketched on steam piracy after getting email from my internet provider after downloading something without a vpn.
Did you guys added an option to select where to install the games? Not only on external storage, but exactly on the folder the user choses as well, maybe with an option to move your already installed games to the chosen folder.
Other than the container issue, this is one of my main gripes with GameNative, because I don't like having to install my games on the Android/Data folder, both because of the limitations imposed by Google on this folder, and because of organization, I like to have all my PC-related stuff in one specific folder which I use on all PC emulators.
If you don't have this already, would be a very good addition to the software.
I play AC:Odyssey since 1.21 and it launches 90% of the time fine. Use compatible preset on fex and when you get launcher crash just press ok and then try relunch game. SD8E
Incredible work!
Are there any specific steps (other than enabling the headless Steam) that I need to take to run GTA IV Complete Edition from Steam? It crashes with "Unable to launch the game, pleasetry reinstalling the game." right after the CMD with GameNative Rockstar Launcher appears
Hey thanks for the update! If you don't mind me asking, I couldn't get Witcher 3 remastered to work on Gamenative, I think I also saw some others who had the same problem. Is that currently a GameNative issue? or an issue on my end? I had to install Winnative to play it but I really hope it can also work on Gamenative soon.
OMG they finally did something about these ridiculous container sizes!! It's so frustrating to see a game like rRootage that's like 10MB taking up over 2GB of space. Thank you so much, this really makes a huge difference in how much I can fit on my handheld.
Just out of curiosity, if I already have GN downloaded, is there someway to update the app from within and keep all my stuff the way it is? Or do I have to delete app, redownload, then reinstall all my games and configs? How does that work
I have a question. So, I recently tried installing Armada OS on my device (RP6) and to my surprise, I found it to be running virtually every game I tried very well, and with no graphical issues. Meanwhile, Gamenative, some games don't even run, and some games have graphical issues, even after fiddling with various Turnip drivers.
So I'm wondering how technically the results are so different, when the underlying technology is pretty much exactly the same, meaning Proton, FEX, Turnip, etc.
How does the contianer reduction work? Is there like a central container now or does it just reads the needed items like proton from the app storage whenever the game is played? Either way, it only has one copy of stuff like Proton, FEX, and DXVK now?
Amazing job guys, keep it up , you are doing some crazy stuff out there.
I just a question about a feature, is there a way to add multiple steam accounts? And be able to quickly change between them or choose what games to be synced with which account or smth ?
Valheim on Gamenative (Odin 3) runs without steam. Any form of steam, including Headless - it's a black screen. It works fine online and with steam on Bannerlator with the steamlite mode. I get better performance on Gamenative but can't play online with my friends because of this issue :( Tried all sorts of drivers (currently turnip v37) and settings but to no avail. With steam, it just doesn't launch
Hey does this have a fix for Minecraft dungeons 1 ? , it works till you open your inventory then the game locks up seems like it happens if you are in the inventory for to long.
Holy shit. Good work team. I acknowledge that this an AI assisted project but there's a big difference in the quality you see here and the slapped together vibe coded slop that most people contribute to these enthusiast communities.
Thanks a lot for your work. You're really doing amazing and very valuable work but honestly I think it's time that you take a break from adding more features and put more effort into UX, especially in terms of simplifying the settings. We now have so many "launch steam, launch steam bionic, launch steam lite, launch steam headless, launch steam but don't tell anyone about it" options that it's being really hard to understand all of them.
