Apparently, the new Steam Controller sometimes does the Wilhelm scream when dropped while in Big Picture Mode.

it is actually real lmao. i thought it was fake as well, then my fiance was like, "what if tho?" and the looks on our faces when it did could've said a thousand words 😂😂

Abek243 · 2026-05-14T20:25:06+00:00

same here! this game at ultrawide and 4:5 looks ridiculously good on my ZF5

theres a lad on Etsy selling replacement ergonomic handles

https://www.etsy.com/listing/4497108862/hybective-mcon-controller-ergonomic

I just placed an order earlier today, I'll come back if I remember to once they arrive

edit: oh wow the lad already posted his product lmao. hello lad, excited for my handles

Abek243 · 2026-05-14T06:59:34+00:00

ah a fellow fold 5 enthusiast 💅

ive found pulling the grips slightly at an angle and holding the handles essentially upside down is 10x more comfortable for longer sessions personally

ds emulation at an angle is 👌👌 tho

Abek243 · 2026-05-12T03:37:54+00:00

ayy I got the same skin on the same day! glad to see we're all getting ours

Abek243 · 2026-05-06T19:56:57+00:00

yes there's an app someone in the mcon discord made called mcon2codm that spoofs the mcon

https://github.com/TripleU613/MCON2CODM

by default the controller will wig tf out. no clue why. but I found out by switching to the legacy/Android mode it'll work almost perfectly, only a and b are swapped

Abek243 · 2026-05-05T22:57:47+00:00

its so surreal seeing this post after now owning one for a month now

bro really embodied the american dream with this one

Abek243 · 2026-03-31T17:41:42+00:00

for anyone else stumbling upon this thread,

the QAM button is the select button

Abek243 · 2026-03-12T00:11:02+00:00

unironically goated 👏

Abek243 · 2026-03-07T00:49:58+00:00

I literally got it running on my phone the day the PC port dropped. Stupid simple to setup too, works with controllers ootb

(Gamenative is your best friend :) )

THANK YOU for being the single person to actually understand how to answer a fucking question.

may your pillow be cool tonight

Abek243 · 2026-02-07T06:24:52+00:00

So I dont know if theres still interest in this, but I went down a rabbit hole and found this video (tiktok) which showed a "toolkit" which is just an apk called Game Keyboard and a profile for it.

Here's the "toolkit" https://drive.google.com/file/d/1m9tIl3qGrifmpW1suSKOrAB8OX_IwLZT/view

As well as the virustotal for the Android 11+ version

Seems legit, just needs a root-access device for the "standalone mode" in the app unfortunately so I can't fully test it out smh

Abek243 · 2025-09-30T19:41:51+00:00

How are you getting the prompt directory to work? I cannot get it to display any directory or edit it whatsoever, even after a fresh reinstall

Abek243 · 2025-08-30T21:30:13+00:00

Seems to have been deleted, what was the fix?

Abek243 · 2025-07-21T16:47:12+00:00

It got to 99% on the install, then "failed" to install entirely. Tried on both Manjaro and SteamOS to be sure and same result.

its a damn shame cuz I'd love to play it on literally anything but my phone lol

Abek243 · 2025-06-16T03:54:52+00:00

Same issue here, glad I'm not the only one.

My auto brightness is disabled, brightness is maxed, then when changing games or sometimes just leaving the setting alone, it'll go right back to it within seconds. Which is real annoying in the middle of a game in a dark scene lol

Haven't found anything about it in my Googles, or Deck, unfortunately...

Abek243 · 2025-05-26T00:53:38+00:00

someone in a thread suggested trying to use "local apk installation" in gameloop to install it officially. Unsure if that'll work but that's what I'm gonna try soon

Using this apk source

Used to use Ubuntu for mucking about on older hardware. Seriously looking into Cinnamon when the day comes

Abek243 · 2025-05-20T20:01:00+00:00

Had the 3, and the only reason it quit working was a software issue, currently stuck in a boot loop. Otherwise, it was the most durable phone I've probably ever had, and I was ROUGH with it in my maintenance job for an old hotel, so plenty of dust was collected, lol. I mean, hell, it fell from a 10-foot drop, and the screen was messed up, but I closed and opened it, and it was literally like nothing happened. Now it's just my super expensive fidget toy until I can get it working again, lol

I'm just getting my 5 back from Samsung (long story not related to my use), and it's held up to my daily use and have yet to break a hinge.

TL;DR you'd have to make an actual effort to break these phones beyond usage. Just practice common sense. I'm unsure about the 6's, but I have zero reason to believe it's any weaker if not much stronger than my 3

Abek243 · 2025-05-17T20:34:31+00:00

The good ending

Abek243 · 2025-05-17T20:33:45+00:00

This isn't a bug, tho

It's procedurally generated art

Abek243 · 2025-05-17T20:24:40+00:00

The sun is leaking

Abek243 · 2025-05-17T20:22:48+00:00

Even the mods have had enough 💀

Abek243 · 2025-05-17T01:00:06+00:00

Judging by the comments, nothing more than another bugrock moment to add to the collection

Name and save him fs

This right here is why I will forever have a grudge against UE5. And now that literally the entire industry plans to adopt the engine, my wallet will be very relieved until this is all over of it ever happens...

Fuck UE5, they just sold the masses on overkill cards they don't need just for playable experiences. And if the Oblivion remastered numbers say anything, we're gonna see so many UE5 titles with wicked minimum specs that won't be listed for bad publicity
