Quoting: Guest... I've always been leery of linking my Steam account with others. Call me paranoid; 99.8% of the time it probably is.

I totally get your point, I feel the same, but for Paradox, I can make an exception. :wink:

This said, it seems there is a problem somewhere in the email process... Can't get the SteamGuard pin email, when I try to connect to my account. It seems it's getting lost somewhere and my email is not the issue, I tested it. Guess I'll try later.

Quoting: AciDHave you tried Iratus: Lord of the dead?

Nope, but interresting suggestion. I'll sure have a look.

This game is great (I own it), but way too hard for my playtime and patience. I'm obviously not the target audience. I would like to see them make a more "classic" RPG/Dungeon crawler, for the casual that I am, based on the same visuals/mechanics and where you don't have to "farm for heroes" to complete the game. That would be an insta-buy, for me.

Quoting: razing32HMMM so what distro is it based on ? Or is it made from scratch ?

Arch based, but no meddling with AUR. All that is required is included directly into the image.

Does it means that Valve is planning on using KWinFt at some point? SteamOS Clockwerk? Gamescope?

Quoting: NanobangI'm intrigued by GOS's controller support. On the GOS website [External Link] it says:

Use any controller
support for Xbox 360, Xbox One, DualShock 4, Switch Pro, Steam controllers and more (compatibility varies by game)

How is this accomplished, I wonder? Are they using their own custom driver? Or have they incorporated Steam's own driver? I wonder because developement of kozec's sc-controller [External Link] --- both the older, python2 original and the newer C-based fork --- has seemingly all but ceased, and I would be comforted thinking there may be another driver in the wings besides the one built into the Steam client.

Can't say if they tweaked it, but it's probably based on what may be found in the Steam client / SteamOS.

This said, if you want to pair a bluetooth controller, there is a bug in the steam client that prevents the BPM bluetooth pairing system from working. Better start here:

This workaround works great with my DS4 and my 8Bitdo SN30Pro.

I had to remove it from my main gaming PC, because of in-home streaming limitations (some games are a slide show while streaming in BPM), but I still use it on a secondary PC. Awesome piece of work by Alkazar and Shark!

Like I said in another post, that's the kind of thing I wouldn't be surprised and I hope for Valve to pick it up, like they did with DXVK.

Quoting: KallestofelesI used to use SC quite a lot in the past, but ever since I received Xbox One controller bundled in with a computer parts purchase, it became obsolete. SC is raw - XBone controller is way more comfortable for longer playing sessions.
The haptics are a nice touch but rarely make sense... basically I used them only for browsing around the desktop when I streamed the PC into the living room TV via Steam Link.
The true killer feature of the SC was the gyro. In my humble opinion, they should ditch the haptics and the layout - make it the same layout as the XBone controller is as it is so darn comfortable for longer gaming sessions, keep the grip buttons and keep the gyro. Maybe also add a dedicated button to enable gyro on the fly as the best way to use it on the SC was to have the gyro come into play once the thumb touched the right haptic pad - it made the SC usable in shooters and left the competition in the dust (except the kb/mouse of course).

And then you get a Switch Pro controller... 😜

Twin stick controllers is a no-go to me. The right trackpad and the gyro are the two main features that sets it appart and make it superior, imo. Else, I'm going back to K+M.

The only one I didn't try is the Switch Pro... Heard the gyro operates like the one in the SC... Who knows, It might make me change my opinion...

Please make it happen. Finished my Doom 2016 run with it. Simply the best and most precise controller ever made.

Quoting: MohandevirGrid Autosport... Still the sim racing game I played the most. Since it looks similar, I'll be looking forward to this one.

Yeah, it doesn't have a good name among serious sim racers.

This. Probably the reason why it's my favorite racing game. Much easier to handle than other "hardcore" racing sims.
