Spider-Man Remastered update out, has a couple Steam Deck fixes

By - | Views: 26,649

Spider-Man Remastered is an absolutely awesome game and it's great on both Steam Deck and Linux desktop! A new patch is out with plenty of fixes. This Deck Verified title has no doubt been sucking away plenty of your time right?

With version 1.824.1.0 they have enabled Gyro Aiming on Steam Deck for Black Cat Stakeouts and interactable objects, along with various UI fixes across the whole game for Steam Deck too. It really is nice to see so many developers paying attention, shows they care about the player experience.

Some of the other additions include:

  • Added sharpness sliders for NVIDIA DLSS and AMD FSR 2.0 upscaling.
  • Added a sharpness slider that controls in-game sharpness.
  • Added an option to force the aspect ratio to 32:9, 21:9, etc.
  • Finetuned the spawn rates for Crowd and Traffic Density settings, to better reflect various modes.
  • Implemented a fix for a bug that turned objects into spiked distorted geometry.
  • Fixed white artifacts appearing around buildings while swinging through the city.
  • Fixed various ray-tracing related crashes, including a crash that would occur when enabling ray-tracing on PCs with Intel Ivy Bridge CPUs.
  • Various visual fixes related to ray-tracing on the Very High Geometry Detail setting.
  • Fixed a bug that prevented some players from progressing in the Spider-Hack mission.
  • Fixed black blobs and sparkling pixel artifacts on characters when using Dynamic Resolution Scaling in combination with AMD Radeon GPUs.
  • Fixed an issue that prevented the game from launching when the installation folder contained non-Latin characters.
  • Improved field of view and cinematic blur transitions.
  • Improved error handling when Controlled Folder Access prevents the launch of the game.
  • Various visual fixes related to ultrawide aspect ratios and multi monitor setups.
  • Various fixes related to mouse and keyboard controls.
  • Stability fixes related to Dynamic Resolution Scaling in combination with AMD Radeon GPUs.
  • Various stability fixes and improved logging.

Quoting: scaineThat's not the case for me. My 2Tb NVME is mounted in /mnt/scaine and I symlink it with ~/Games.

I was always under the impression that they had to be on the same drive as OS, as tried to have separated drive formatted to NTFS and then Steam kept on showing read errors, saying it cannot read the drive. What is the recommended Format for Proton games being on separate drive?

Any format well supported by Linux, totally not NTFS. Ext4 if you're unsure.

Ext4 is the way to go. Don't use NTFS for anything, under Linux. At all. Ever. It's utter horseshit, honestly.

Unless you need to be able to access something in a dual boot setup. Otherwise avoid.

Okay so do I just format it to ext4 and create a Games folder for Steam to recognize? Then mounting it like I would any other drive? Making sure I have access to it as well, as in the past when formatting to ext4 it was rooted, just make sure it's open for me to use? Should be easy enough.

Have reinstalled Linux Mint Xfce Una this time not Uma. Used gparted to format 2TB drive to ext4. Opened it as root in Nemo, as I don't like Thunar, not enough options. Set permissions to myself not root. The new Steam lets you choose on download of game, where you want to download and install it to, so keeping my ext4 drive open, or mounted installed Spider man and it is working like a charm. Steam has automatically set my 2TB drive as the default drive, after download of Spider man. Just got to get OBS installed and the newish Reaper plugins, that are now available for Linux. You don't activate them from OBS apparently, you can symlink your mic to the Reaper VST plugins, it'll work on the fly, whilst using OBS. Thank you all, will be posting video later on today.

so... A game can't be great unless it's a Linux native?
Get outta here. The greatness of a game is unrelated to platform.

Quoteit's great on both Steam Deck and Linux desktop!
Liam said but this is about how it works under linux with compability layers tools etc not gameplay mechanics graphics ai npcs blablabla So i called that "not spider-man remastered great" actually transgaming is great to make us able to play this game.
And if we can play this game under linux this is because of transgaming and linux community not developers of this game
actually they are still supporting Windows over Linux as they have tools to make it natively work under Linux they dont have intention to do yet they will not do that as much as we celebrate how transgaming tools are right tools for Linux gaming.

Ah, I got your point. Fair enough.
I thought you commented on the game itself.
