Yesterday, July 1st, they announced the Alpha release of this next-generation mod manager and their new Product Manager got in touch to mention they "would be really keen to get feedback from Linux users". So this is your chance to ensure Linux (and Steam Deck) finally become a first-class citizen for game modding.

I tried this out, I was unable to log in with Firefox or Chromium. It appears the only games that it supports in this alpha are Stardew Valley and Cyberpunk 2077. I have Stardew Valley installed and it finds it.

It's a good start, though. I hope this gets updated soon.

I really love the thing. It's been my almost exclusive gaming device for the last couple years, except for the past few weeks where I've been binge gaming shattered pixel dungeon on my phone.

I just screwed myself so hard. Was OP buff as hell warrior class. Killed the final boss with ease, went back up to level 1, and .....couldn't leave. I'd forgotten to go grab the dumb amulet and didn't even notice I wasn't healing on the boss stages on the way back up.

Went all the way back down, grabbed the amulet, started going back up again but at that point I was running low on food. Then due to a quick series of absolute bs and bad luck I got killed. Ruined a fantastic run that I thought was in the bag.

Just install Linux on your laptop or desktop.

If you want a hassle-free setup, get Linux Mint, or if you use Nvidia, Pop!_OS.

To get as close to the Steam Deck setup as reasonable, get EndeavourOS with KDE. It is Arch-based and may require maintenance though.

Kubuntu is a good middle ground, with the same desktop interface as SteamOS (KDE) but also pretty hassle-free setup.

Does it work with nonstandard steam directories and proton?

[–] Sivilian@lemmy.zip 1 points 9 months ago

It only works with Stardew Valley right now, but a gog and steam are support so I think you can point it to where you have the game.

No thanks. Nexus Mods is about censorship.
