Even so, it is nice to see fixes for Proton problems pop up as quickly as they have been, here and for Dead Space especially. I’ve been curious to try gryo controls more often, after belatedly watching Team Fortress 2 YouTuber SolarLight’s video on the subject, so that improvement sounds good to me too.īetween this Ubisoft Connect issue, GTA Trilogy – Definitive Edition, and the Dead Space remake, it’s not been the Steam Deck’s best month. That always bugged me!Įxtra cursor keys on the onscreen keyboard is another nice touch, and gyroscope calibration has been upgraded to more intelligently account for possible drifting. My personal highlight: the Navigation pane in the SteamOS overly is now centered properly. Too many to just paste here, really, so have a read of the patch notes for the full list. On a happier note, there’s dozens of positive changes in the client update, ranging from UI improvements to bug fixes related to specific mice and keyboards. Hopefully this fix makes it way to Proton’s stable branch asap, as without it, all you’ll see after launching is this error screen: The horror. From my checks this morning, this does the trick, though the expected caveats about experimental branches lacking full testing will apply.

Valve’s fix does require a moment of manual input, but it’s easy enough if you now find yourself locked out: open the Properties menu of the affected game, head to the Compatibility section, check "Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool" and select Proton Experimental from the list.
