Thanks got it today just in case. It doesn’t follow the emudeck setup if anyone else is wonderinf as they do some symlinking and maybe some preconfigued settings but they can be configured manually .

I imagine they have this stuff internally classifying photos and faces.

I still have an old yuzu installed but might gibe it a go with the latest firmware and see how ot goes. Unfortunately i didn’t snag ryujinx on deck but at least grabbed the source from mirrors after the fact.

Edit

With firmware 18.1.0 and matching keys it works on steamdeck, the yuzu used is out of date by a few but its close enough to the final ea version floating around. Sound is fine on the rift areas and only issue so far is sometimes the rift can look weird in the villages but its a minor cosmetic issue. Made it through the first rift with no issues and probably explored a large chunk of the map. Not seeing any slowdowns.

Thanks for the info. Thats good to know. Its a pain having to have short plays while keeping an eye on the ram creeping up.

Good to know thanks for the info 👍

How is Hogwarts Legacy nowadays ? I’m thinking to pick it up in the future but want to make sure it plays ok on deck.

In between

God of war (lowest settings capped to 30 due to the memory leak)

Bad North

Mini metro

Forza horizon 4

Fallout 4

Vampire survivors

What emu are you using and how does it run ?

I think anyone still in the scene will want to lay low for a while and work in the shadows. Only releasing after a few years.

I hope they dont go for dolphin or cemu claiming that certain games are in their e-shop for the switch 2 release.

Either way I think we should start backing up emulators and their source and require files regularly as a fallback.

I’ll continue to block them as long as we can and then move on to something else if we can’t. By paying you are just rewarding this exploitative behavior.

If you simply must pay for something then donate it to a charity instead. These companies do not need your money.

Machines could be doing all the work. We could have clean energy , air ,water and food and shelter for all…

Its stuxnet like

Yeah we’ll see

Fallout 4. Recently finished trover saves the universe and super Mario wonder.

You need to have the premium subscription for that

I get the games on epic but I haven’t even bothered playing them because I game exclusively on linux and just have not bothered with lutris / heroic etc. Proton with steam is just effortless and after years of tinkering with wine back in the day I want the simplicity
