IsSteamRunningOnSteamDeck #27

Probably blocked by same problem as https://github.com/britzl/steamworks-defold/issues/26, but would be nice to have this check: https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/api/ISteamUtils#IsSteamRunningOnSteamDeck

Would you mind trying this branch with a Steam 1.55 update and see if it works well for you:

8bitskull commented 2 years ago

I don't think it's working. I get this:

Oh, that's not the right version. Please try the latest commit on the branch:

Sorry about that!

OK, I created a Windows debug bundle and that works fine, outputs false for the steam deck check (as expected).

When trying to bundle release for Linux (i.e. to test on steam deck) I get this error log: log.txt

In the editor this seems to be the only error, the rest are warnings: image

britzl commented 2 years ago

Ah, thanks. I've pushed a fix.

OK, it bundles now but crashes on launch on the Steam Deck. That's a release build, but I wouldn't know how to get debug output anyway. I do have the err extension in my project, but this particular crash doesn't generate any data (perhaps happens too quickly).

A release build on Windows launches fine.

I have a workaround for now (system is linux + resolution matches Steam Deck + steamworks is active) so it's perhaps not an urgent fix. Happy to test more though if you have further ideas.

I'm actually going to pick up a Steam Deck later today. I'll see if I can do some testing once I've familiarised myself with it. (What kind of developer options are there? Can I sideload apps while developing? etc)

8bitskull commented 2 years ago

Ah, excellent! I have no idea unfortunately - I have simply been uploading test apps onto a beta branch of my Steam projects.

8bitskull commented 2 years ago

Getting (rare, thankfully) comments that indicate my workaround sometimes fails - which I imagine either means the user is running an unusual operating system or has somehow changed the resolution on the Steam Deck. Accordingly, that means the issue is more relevant for me again, as having access to IsSteamRunningOnSteamDeck would be much more reliable.

+1 for this issue, running into the same problem.
