Quoting: PhiladelphusSo for those of us who don't know, what would upping this actually help with, and how would one know if one was running into problems with it in the first place?I believe the game just CTD's as it needs more memory than the system allows for.

Quoting: mitridasGreat to see the opportunities created here!Quoting: ForgeOh, I have a Steam Deck LCD for projects and a Steam Deck OLED that I do my gaming on. Not quite willing to mail one to you, but I'd be happy to get you remote access and a bit of shared presence, schedules permitting.That would be incredibly helpful, thanks for offering!
Let's talk about it on our Discord [External Link] (or please send me a PM if you prefer a different way to communicate).

It does seem like an AMD issue. Don't know if it is relevant but I believe NVIDIA uses its own 3d stack, where AMD uses Mesa.
Yes, having a SteamDeck does help. Also with the controller settings. I must say that this game fits the SteamDeck very well. But I think the slow down issue is more important right now.
If you need feedback, let me know.

Quoting: mitridasDesktop hacking effect?Quoting: emphyI do seem to be getting the same slowdown that others have reported. Starts off smooth as butter, but performance gets really bad fairly quickly.Ah, so it's starting to look like an AMD-specific rendering slowdown then. Hopefully I'll be able to get to the bottom of it on my own system.
Latest linux mint xfce (so: no wayland), with an rx6600. I will check later if a newer kernel could alleviate the issue.
BTW, I've just managed to add a special feature that's been Windows only so far: the desktop hacking effect that occurs the first time one starts the game.
I'll be curious to hear what you think, will post an update here when it's uploaded!
And as far as Steam Deck goes, I don't think it's as simple as exchanging the X&Y of the window... I'm afraid I need to get my hands on one of those bad boys if I want to get the game working properly on it, so it will be a while.

Quoting: emphyNew version starts! Love the crt look though the textboxes don't seem to get the crt-treatment. Apart from that, maybe some "glow" between the "pixels" could be a nice extra.Interesting! So it's not a Wayland issue. I'm running Fedora 39, which has a very recent kernel. Others have noted that the CPU load increases when in happens.

I think the resolution thing is caused by directly reading the with and height of the screen and setting those values to the dimensions of the window. The Steam Deck probably reports it as 800x1280 and thus the window is set to 800 in width and 1280 in height. So a check to see if the width is smaller than the height and then reversing those should give your window the right dimensions.
