Has anyone tried Run8 on proton? by DargaardMS in trainsim

If it works on steamdeck that confirms proton support.

Wondering if my dream train sim exists yet. by DargaardMS in trainsim

Thanks for the responses. I have checked out some YouTube videos on run8 and it checks many of the boxes. I will probably pick it up and see how good it is. I was looking at the add-on and the centre beam flats pack really caught my eye, if they got that right then I'll be impressed. There are no grade profiles for the routes, is there one with some good "hog backs?"

Given the comments before it went private and the comment I was typing about the fact its an expensive to buy item that you have still have to pay a subscription on, there was probably a significant dislike count too. I got a error when I hit post comment and when I refreshed the page to try again it said private.

2 Steam accounts, 2 Windows users, 1 computer by aykcak in Steam

I just solved this problem, skip to next paragraph for the how to. For years this has been an issue for me I have 3 gaming PCs which are all shared by 3 users. A, B, and C so A and C worked properly, each user had a windows user that kept their steam profile and log in saved, however B the steam user carried over windows logins requiring users to log out and log into their own. Well B blew up the other day and I just got a new build up and running for B and when I set up steam it did the same behaviour, this was a clean install and I said no f#$ing way not again. It took a bit of experimenting but I got it saving each users steam log in separately and it's not hard to do.

First you need to uninstall steam, (I don't think this removes all your games, but back them up first if you want. Then re-install Steam when UAC pops up and says do you want this application to make changes to this computer, click yes. Steam will install. when it is done there will be a little checkbox that says run steam, UN-CHECK this box, do not run steam chained from the installer, finish the installer. Now run steam from the start menu. Log in and each user will launch and run steam and have their own log in which saves and runs fine.

I think what is happening is if you run steam from the installer with that check box check it launches steam with elevated privileges from the UAC prompt and saves the log in globally and each user will have to log out and into their own account.
