More shots of Steam's new Library design thanks to a leak (updated)
9 Jun 2019 at 8:21 pm UTC Likes: 2
Of note is that they have eliminated the "Linux games" vs "All games" views. It was nice to see at a glance the counts (how much has my percentage of native games increased?), but that was already broken if you enabled Steam Play globally. Speaking of which, the messaging about the compatibility tool used is missing in this UI (i.e. "Proton 3.16-7 by Valve testing" or "Proton 4.2-5 set by you"). Hopefully they add that back in.
Another issue: if your list of collections/categories doesn't fit in the window, it just gets truncated in the menus (Add To..., Games->Your Collections - I can't see a bunch that are cut off at the top).
When looking at the details of a game, there's a little checkbox in the upper right corner, that says it will toggle a new header style, but when you click on it, it looks like it's to configure where the title gets placed on the game image, or something. Work in progress feature, I guess.

Quoting: DribbleondoNot gotten it to work =/The library just showed a blank window for me, until I realized I had put the steamui folder in the wrong spot. Once I put it where Liam said, it worked. ;-)

Quoting: BeamboomNowadays whenever I start the client it starts downloading shader pre-caching content for a lot of my games. Like, every single day. Mostly the same handful of titles too...Yes; it seems simply restarting Steam will cause it to want to re-download a bunch of shader caches it just downloaded.
Do this happen to the rest of you too, and anyone know why?

Quoting: Alm888I am ashamed to admit, but it is "Pathologic 2" for me this weekend.It should be eventually (unless they back out on their promises):
It is a shame this game is not available on Linux

Quoting: chancho_zombieHopefully with Zen 2 I can turn all kernel CPU mitigations off.If it's not affected, I'm sure the kernel code won't apply the mitigations. Most of them get skipped for AMD CPUs already.

Quoting: scaineI played a fair bit of QuernI found Quern to have a very neatly designed layout/map. In the same genre is Haven Moon, which is much shorter, but I thought it was also well done.

Quoting: drlambThanks for sharing! You didn't say what these were, and since I already have all of them, the keys should still be available, unless someone else snagged them: Punch Club, The Final Station, and Party Hard.Spoiler, click me

Quoting: HoriI use monitor built-in-speakers so unless I destroy my finger pressing the volume down button 100 times to turn mute the audio, and then 100 times again to turn it back to max, which I never expected to have to do, I can't do anything about it. Turning the volume down normally through GNOME will turn the volume on the receiver also.Turn the monitor off?
