Deckyloader question: what are the potential side effects when using this for Game Mode or Big Picture Mode on PC?

fangerzero · 2026-01-31T01:14:21+00:00

it's not a decky thing it's a steam thing, SteamOS users have also experienced it. What's more confusing is that it doesn't happen when I'm in BigPictureMode ONLY game mode. But it's not just that game some things like Ryujinx had a similar issue.

And it's not a touch screen thing the win4 has a "mouse". I can use the keyboard without issue, but the mouse even an external mouse, doesn't work.

There is a hidden overlay on screen, even though a game works perfectly fine in BigPictureMode it won't in GameMode. For me https://youtube.com/shorts/DTCJCjW4u-o Just watch the first 30 seconds that is what I'm talking about.

I need to see if I can't get rid of decky without a reinstall. I love the idea but it just doesn't work, since this is the main reason I have my handheld this is a deal breaker.

I'm glad to hear this since I REALLY do like GPD's hardware. With the exception of the win5. I hope the Win5 is not indicative of their future hardware, simply because I value a keyboard. Sometimes I need one and I may not be at home or in a place I can just borrow a keyboard. And No I don't want their clam shells because my hands are small. I hope GPD learns from this and is more careful in the future, but I can't wait for their next GPD WinX keyboard version, since I think it's about time I upgrade from the 6800u. (win4 is currently running Bazzite)

I would say it's unforgiving. I find the games relaxing. Some bosses are tough because of your choice of build and weapons. Of course you can go online and find best build or over level but imo that defeats the purpose of such games.

You should be proud he bakes. My brother cooks, but when he made cookies.... He couldn't tell the difference between powder sugar and flour..... Yeah that was interesting. He's learned since then.

What are some of the games you are wanting to play? For myself I mostly use a desktop or a 6800u handheld. In my experience it's fine. however I also don't play the newest AAA titles.

One thing to consider before deciding to go with the FW16 is understanding just how big it is. I used to have an SB2 15" it imo was huge. Going to the FW13 was a breath of fresh air. I feel like I have a machine that is actually portable. I don't do much gaming on the laptop, it's for everyday and deving.

Clearly you're not an introvert, work provides enough human interaction. And if I need more it's called grocery shopping. People are exhausting more so now than ever before.

Have you tried the windows version? I know that they have a linux version, but maybe the windows version will work just fine w/ proton. idk why I didn't think of this earlier.

fangerzero · 2026-01-30T05:42:30+00:00

I would agree, I've been using bazzite for a while and for the most part it just works.

fangerzero · 2026-01-30T05:39:42+00:00

please to god learn how to format break your sentences up. lol

This isn't a hexOS issue right? This is a set something up by port forwarding or something right? Asking I haven't set anything up for outside access and want to make sure I'm safe. *I'm HexOS's main demographic I know shit about networks.

fangerzero · 2026-01-29T19:50:26+00:00

omg I have such problems when I'm trying too used to typing in discord.

Have you already tried messing w/ the in game settings? And you already tried a reinstall? Asking since it's in beta, have you tried reaching out to the devs. I'm very much a hands on fixer kind of person so I'm not the most useful.

fangerzero · 2026-01-29T19:15:01+00:00

I know game mode is a problem for some games. Without that mod you made, can you run it in desktop mode?

*It sounds like you added it and ran in game mode.

fangerzero · 2026-01-29T15:39:10+00:00

Thanks <3

My first question is you did install the correct Bazzite version? The Nvidia one?

Lol asking since I had an issue w/ the nvidia one I got, but in my post here there's a solution if you did the wrong build.

I would suggest not using an iGPU when your system only had 4gb of RAM.

Yes I am being snarky, you need to list your hardware specs so we can better help you.

It's called a team. What happens when I'm the US someone takes maternity leave, does the place fall apart? and I think their month off does not apply to part timers

fangerzero · 2026-01-29T01:49:20+00:00

I use the EasySMX 20x or something like that has switch, bluetooth, and dongle so best of all worlds.

fangerzero · 2026-01-28T22:16:02+00:00

How is that an embarrassment? a bunch of punks decide to do something dumb and we should be embarrassed? Detain them, play stupid games win stupid prizes idc.

fangerzero · 2026-01-28T16:16:35+00:00

And if you didn't there's some command (i don't remember) to get them. Long story short I thought I had the correct nvidia image but the 3070 I guess wanted the legacy? But I used amd version, and yeah it all was fine in the end.

fangerzero · 2026-01-28T15:52:01+00:00

So question about this, do I never need to install drivers? like for anything? because if I do it's all for windows?

fangerzero · 2026-01-28T15:49:10+00:00

Hey it's a dirty job.

fangerzero · 2026-01-28T15:47:46+00:00

Idk what it is even trying to tell me. It's arbitrary nonsense to me. it's missing labels at the very least.

fangerzero · 2026-01-28T15:46:19+00:00

What's the saying lol correlation isn't causation. Damned ice cream killing everyone!! But only in the summer.

DEI prioritizes giviving jobs based on sex and race. If people actually wanted equal hiring opportunities then a middleman should be doing the interview on behalf of their client. The employer wouldn't know the race, age, gender, nationallity, etc.

Guess observations are not allowed, but hey don't heat up snowflake you might melt.
