'Until Morale Improves'

What kind of code name is this 🤣

Updates will continue until morale improves?

Probably a nudge to Tim Sweeney's "Fortnite on Steam Deck" news. :grin:

On the fence between Spider-man: Miles Morales and Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves... Can't decide. 40% off, both of them.

Sorry! Late to the party! First time sunshine user.

Got questions... Anyone been able to use a Steam Controller on such setup? It seems to be recognized as a mouse only (Android TV client).
I also read that sunshine supports AMD GPU... Is it working well with the RX 6000 series?

Edit: Just had a look at your PC Info... RX 7900 XTX and RX 6700 XT. Seems it works well with AMD GPU. :happy:

Wake from Bluetooth :

To be enabled in Bios? Thats's where I would look first. Similar to wake on lan from pcie device.

I used to start my computer from complete shutdown, thus. It was for my Steam in-home streaming with the Steam Link app. It worked well.

Quoting: MohandevirWow! Awesome!

Can we expect the ram speed boost to give a couple of additional fps?

Yes, just a couple. Digital Foundry did a review of the unit and confirmed this.

Just a couple is already good. This couple of FPS will probably make some games more enjoyable, when in the 25-30-35fps range.

Edit: Around 5% to 8% better, in average, depending on games. From 2 to 5 fps. I heard right? Not bad. I'll take them. It aligns with some videos I found, when I searched for the performance difference between DDR4-3200 & DDR4-2666, couple of months ago.

Quoting: MohandevirYeah. From what I heard (Linus Tech Tips), they achieved it by shrinking the bezels. The overall size of the screen is unchanged. So, the original SD's screen might be upgradable. Let's wait and see...

In the Gamers Nexus video on it touches on this with a "statement" from a avlave engineer saying it isnt possible to swap in the OLED screen to a non OLED model; see at below timestamp:

Damn! Not that it matters to me. I wouldn't embark on that journey. But for those who would like to...

Quoting: Purple Library GuyI wonder how that works, actually. Is the whole thing just 0.4" bigger overall, or was there space around the edge of the existing screen that could be moved into so the device is the same size just with a bigger hole for the screen, or somewhere in between? Did they need to shift the controls any?

The screen had a large border:

My guess is they just used some of that space.

Yeah, looks plausible.

Quoting: MohandevirI miss the old bpm, in that regard.

I miss it too. For all its sins (read bugs) it had a warm feeling to it. The new one feels cold, clinical, impersonal. I'm getting used to it, but in one place is still sorely lacking, and that is controller settings. The old BPM visual and intuitive gamepad settings were replaced with a cumbersome and convoluted mess of nested menus over menus. Probably useful for Steam Deck I suppose, where screen estate is premium, but, at least for me, useful only for basic profiles, the more advanced the profile I'm trying to set, the more lost I get.
Luckily I've kept an old Steam client from before the new interface and I use that to set new profiles, heck I still frequently game on that.

I get your point, the old BPM was nice, but it lacked in many features though. For my part, the old BPM supported older hardware. Now, with wayland being badly supported by Nvidia... I can't use it anymore.

Quoting: EikeThis was a joke regarding expectations of gamers always wanting more.

So true!!! Never satisfied!

Quoting: MohandevirFor my part, all that's missing is USB4 support and an egpu docking station.

Read: self-mockery. :grin:
