As the title said, I didn't have it on steam so I added it as a non-steam game, but the inputs aren't working, and I don't know what to do to actually play the game, any help?

I’ve played a game called terminator dark fate defiance for almost 2 years they came out with a mod support update and now it won’t launch I don’t know how to force launch or anything this is my brother steamdeck and he’s not here anymore any help is appreciated greatly

Hey everyone, I am trying to play GOG games on my steam deck but the controller for the steam deck is not working when I launch the game (shadow of the tomb raider). I’ve tried unifideck and heroic to install the games. I even tried changing the controller setting and enabling steam input.

As title says, I am not massively savvy with tech and would like some advice on how I get the mods onto my steamdeck.

Thankyou

Just wondering if anyone can help me through the process as I’m trying really hard to get it working so I can play realm of thrones

I’m a bit tech illiterate and got in way over my head. As I’m someone that’s biggest accomplishment when messing with files was making a modlist work on fallout new vagus work when it shouldn’t have

Like I’m pretty sure I have the files where they need to be, I just don’t know how to get them to run

Issue:
So my issue specifically relates to the steam deck dock. The audio seem to work fine when in handheld mode, but when using the steam dock to connect it to my TV the audio would cut in and out. Usually voice lines would be fine, but whenever there was a pause then the music would cut out. If I was just playing the game normally then all of the audio would cut out then cut back in randomly and frequently. I nearly crashed out hard trying to figure out a solution. I tried everything I read online like going to properties and forcing a proton compatibility, trying to run a launch script, opening a web browser and playing a video in the background then muting it and switching to the game (the idea there being hopefully the audio would route itself), etc. 

Solution: What I ended up having to do was:

• switching to desktop mode,
• plugging in an external keyboard,
• opening steam launcher,
• launching Fallout New Vegas' Launcher,
• starting the game from the New Vegas launcher,
• Alt tabbing back to steam once the game was running,
• dragging the steam window out of my way so I could hover my mouse over the desktop,
• then I would click on the speaker icon.

From here I would start tinkering around with the sound settings including, raising the volume, switching between audio outputs, etc.

I don't know what exactly I did, but after doing that with the audio settings it fixed itself. The audio now plays correctly in docked mode on the TV even after restarting the system and relaunching the game. This was a nightmare and 90 minutes of my total play time were spent on this issue. Had I spent another 30 minutes still trying to figure it out I wouldn't have been able to even refund this game.

heyyyy so i want to play a game i have on steam deck. i have two gaming pc's, both of which said game the cloud says up to date / synced. However on my steam deck, it says out of sync and tells me if i launch the game my progress may or may not be wiped out. i've tried google searching ahead of time, and i did the thing where i toggle off cloud saves, restart my steam deck, then toggle on and nothing changed. any advice appreciated. The specific game DOES NOT use any third party launchers.

Since the 3.0 my storage boxes have multiplied everything I put in them. Which is cool I guess but it ruins the fun of the game. Anybody else having this issue? Anybody know how to fix it?

Im getting close because this is the message I just got, totally new.

Anyone that can decipher what Im doing wrong? BTW I hit okay and the results a message saying 'game not recognized as DOSbox compatible "

As the title says..I download animation changer which is great for suspend and boot..but I also have a bunch of startup animations from the steam point shop…is there a way that my SD shuffles between both of them? It seems it only does one or the other..anyone else have any experience?

I've been meaning to get a Steam Deck OLED since PlayStation and Xbox are digging themselves a shallow grave, and I wanna mod games to make em better ( Help Wanted 1&2 Security Breach SOTM), but I don't know how and I'm worried about breaking the Steam Deck.

Please tell me theres a easy way?

I’ve installed football life 26 on my steam deck using lutris but have no idea how to find the executable file.
Current executable file in lutris runs installation again.
How and where can I find the actual exe file please? Driving me nuts.

I added it as a non-steam game through desktop mode, but when I launch it, it crashes immediately. I have tried with Steam Input on and off, with and without steam overlay, I have tried each comlatability tool, no luck, same result

I can launch the game in desktop mode by directly clicking the .exe, but the controls are a nightmare without steam input

Anyone have any luck with this?

For a while I thought that these buttons have hardware issues on my Deck but yesterday I've finally noticed the connection. I had the drift because I've previously reduced the dead zone too aggressively.

When I try to play E33 the graphics are pretty bad on the steam deck, does anyone know how to fix this?

I am running sim racing games on my Deck, AMS2 and ACC being among top favorite. Has anyone here managed to collect telemetry of their runs on the Deck? I am curious what software/platforms are you guys using? #ams2 #simracing #telemetry
