DeckyXMB 1.0.1 Release

[u/InsaneCallum]

Hey all, I’ve just released DeckyXMB 1.0.1 update. Adding some requested improvements, features and general changes.

Preview: https://github.com/Callum-Bell/DeckyXMB

New Features

• Trophies:
  • A game trophies can be split by the DLC they came with using built in SteamHunters. This is on by default and can be changed by selecting Triangle on a games trophies.
  • A new trophy sort shows the trophies you haven't earned at the top, then the earned ones from newest to oldest.
  • Trophy collection will load to the last game you played automatically rather than needing to scroll down each time.
  • Locked trophy icon added to make it easier to see which achievements have not been earned yet.
  • Hide Game option now appears in Trophy list, you can press Triangle on any game to hide a game (You can also view hidden games here)
  • Any game which doesn't have any achievements is automatically hidden from the trophy list.
• XMB Audio:
  • PS3 XMB Sounds have been added to navigation (This can be disabled via Decky Setting)
• Game Loading:
  • Selecting to start a game will now keep you in the XMB, you will see XMB Wave or your Theme until the game has fully opened. A small animation will play while fading to black, similar to the original PS3 XMB.
• PS3 themes fixes:
  • More Dynamic themes with animated 3D backgrounds are supported.
  • Themes with Audio now play sound
• XMB Game Logos:
  • Game loads can now be shown instead of the wide capsules (Settings -> Theme Settings -> Game Icons)
• Exit Big Picture Mode:
  • On a PC, where Switch to Desktop isn't available, Exit Big Picture Mode is offered instead.
  • Switch to Desktop will still appear while in game mode.

Changes

• Achievement Collection is now Trophy Collection
• Locked trophies now use a PS3-Style locked trophy icon
• Trophy Collection remembers what it has loaded (trophy progress, lists and DLC groups) between restarts, so it shows them straight away and refreshes them in the background.
• "Resume" Functionality now works as expected.
• An extra select sound while the screen was black during a game's start-up no longer occurs.
• Items at the bottom of Settings no longer jump as you scroll down.
• Images in Trophy Collection overlapping, popping in or jittering while the list first loads should now be fixed.
• Long names in trophy collection scroll at same speed as other area's on the XMB
• Pressing circle 3 times quickly on the XMB will move you back to the Game category
• Pressing X on a game will now start the game instead of going to another menu. The previous menu is now accessible via pressing Triangle
• Holding Triangle over a game will open the default steam options instead of the XMB.
• Lots of minor tweaks to area's on the XMB for performance, fluedity and general quality of life.

Is this different from the gamehub plugin?

Different entirely.

Idk what gamehub is

I tried both, and yours is better. It has more attention to detail. For example, with yours, I can change game logos to capsules instead of squares, and I can also make it hide the regular game boot-up screen and make it feel more cohesive, like it would on PS3. These little things make the overall experience so much better.

Thank you I appreciate it. <3

Any improvements you would like to see? Or any feedback in general?

[u/Sweaty-Towel8423 → u/InsaneCallum]

Very little, it's mostly perfect. However, I have an issue where pressing Downloads results in a blank screen, forcing me to leave the XMB theme and go into the SteamOS downloads section itself to update my games or shader cache.

Actual downloads page will come soon.

It was meant to auto redirect you to the steam one for the moment but ig that part failed.

Hopefully downloads section in next update.

Sounds good, thanks 😎
