Quoting: dubigrasu[...]I would've love to hear an opinion from someone heavily accustomed with the pads on the Steam Controller, are the new pads big enough?

The SteamDeck pads are supposed to be the same width/height as the circular ones on the Steam Controller (in other words, the circle can fit inside the square) and those were pretty much the perfect size.

Where was that mentioned?
I'm looking at this guy who's doing a DIY of a steam deck, and (supposing that he got measurements right) the SC pads seems to be quite bigger then the new ones.

If he's right about it, this kinda sucks, as they are puny in size.

My source was Reddit, so I guess it should be taken with a grain of salt:

Quoting: CybolicAt least on my build of DarkPlaces (using DarkPlacesRM), the new episode (Dimension of the Machine) crashes when killing an enemy with the axe [...]
I'll try Luxtorpeda's DarkPlaces build next.

Yup, same thing with Luxtorpeda's build of QuakeSpasm-Spiked and VKQuake. The crash is not from using the axe but seems to be when one of the first enemies is killed (number 6 or 7 I think). The wrong portal text is in all three versions (and not in the Kex Engine version).

I just added FTE QuakeWorld as an option. Give that a try and see if it works better if you have a chance.

I just tried that one and it seemed to go alot further.

That works, no crashes now! Is it just me or is the timing on jumps and projectile travel speeds slower on FTE QuakeWorld?

The text displayed by portals doesn't seem correct either, more like variable names.

I just did pretty much the exact same scheme, but with a slightly more purple hue (#1F0041) and black trackpads.
It is one sexy skin :D

The SteamDeck pads are supposed to be the same width/height as the circular ones on the Steam Controller (in other words, the circle can fit inside the square) and those were pretty much the perfect size. If they were bigger, you'd need too much finger movement. Think of them like thumb trackballs - at some point the ball just gets too big to be comfortable to move around with one finger.

Do you get whine when you move your head up or down?
I have the Chilldex in my Index, but I've had to turn it off several times because the buzzing noise it makes in certain games is just too annoying; curious whether this is a general problem with all these fans or I just picked the wrong option.

Quoting: rcritAm I the the only one hesitant to remove native games in case they disappear from Steam?

Maybe? I don't worry about it at least. If a native port is removed, chances are the Windows version will run better through Proton/Wine anyway. I'd rather have a working game than a hacky port, and if the devs remove it, chances are the port wasn't great to begin with.

Quoting: CybolicOh, that new library management is excellent news! It even supports moving a game to a different library directly from the listing!

I don't know if you've seen what they're intending for the Steam Deck.

Oh, I have! Just as I access ROMs/ISOs/ADFs from my NAS, I can imagine starting to put less disk intensive games on an SD card and just plug it in when it's time to play. Great things are coming our way :D
