Valve Does its Best to Fix Launchers

https://steamdeckhq.com/news/proton-9-0-2-has-released-with-new-fixes/

The next stable update for Proton has arrived, and it brings with it tons and tons of game fixes, new playable titles, extra controller support for different launchers, and much more. The launchers themselves are for specific titles rather than other storefronts, and this includes Fallout 3 and 4, Clustertruck, Skyrim, and two of the older Tomb Raider games. This means you should be able to use your controller to navigate the launchers instead of needing to use the touchscreen or trackpads.

Steam Deck Third Party Screen Abandoned?

According to users on the DeckHD Discord server, there have been a lot of people who have purchased the screen within the last month and a half and have heard of no updates regarding their orders. On top of that, almost all the support tickets that were submitted went silent, making people a bit worried about their products and whether they were ever going to get them. It got so bad that a lot of individuals started thinking that DeckHD was an abandoned project. Well, luckily, that isn’t the case, though there are still some issues to be wary of.

According to Francisco_, a staff member on the DeckHD Discord server, the project has not been abandoned and isn’t dead at all. They were in the final stages of automating everything for DeckHD. After I got his messages, Rema, another DeckHD staff member, posted an announcement to the server, going into more detail. A warehouse relocation caused shipping delays, and I reassured everyone that all orders would be fulfilled and shipped within 1-2 weeks. As for customer support, it is currently limited.

Response: Warehouse relocated and there have been delays in production and shipping caused by that move.

Shadow of the ErdTree is more demanding than base game

Found that our recommended 30 FPS settings for the base game do the job 90% of the time, but for some of the bigger areas and bosses, I did find lowering some settings to help slightly. So, with most of the settings on low and a couple on medium or high, I could keep a stable 30 FPS in the open world with some minor drops in boss battles or when a lot of effects are on the screen. This is all at a resolution of 1280×800 as well, so everything looks crisp. You can lower the resolution to 1152×720 to mitigate some of these drops, but it wasn’t enough to justify a change.
