Steam Deck Discussion

we only support the steam deck with the steam tool and no other OS other than windows

But is it possible to trigger similar behaviours seen on the Steam Deck ourselves?

I wasn't requesting, or expecting Linux support to be added. I'm just asking the question, if there is a way for me as a user, of my own volition, to enable behaviour that already exists (Specifically global settings stored in the Aurora folder) when not on a Steam Deck.

Like, how is Aurora detecting that a user is on a Steam Deck, can I modify that? Do you and the CH team not want me to modify that?

It's cool if the answer is "No".

I am running on steam deck ( tried both OS/Desktop and steam game mode) - when I launch the game and it brings up the Aurora I can't tell if it is supposed to auto activate that game. If I toggle on from either the device or my mobile some items seem to work however I don't ever hear the audible message from the demo tutorial videos saying it's activated and the activate button is always greyed out which I'm not sure if that means it's activated or not?

The sound is disabled by default on the steam deck because of a bug that kept repeating the activation sound. If you are using the Aurora steam deck tool then the trainer activates as soon as the game is opened which is why the activate button is always greyed out.

Thanks- the issue I am having now is that I am unable to download/request the offline key on my steam deck in either desktop or game mode. I have tried two different internet sources and reboot . It just says "There was a problem, please check the log file" - when I check the log file it just says "Failed to retrieve offline key, error: Module not found"

Any ideas?

Thanks

Offline keys are not supported on Steamdeck

Thanks - So in order to use I would need to either have active network connection or a hot-spot long enough to login and activate correct? Any need to keep the network connection "live" such as on a plane?

You need internet access to login and navigate through Aurora. If the trainer is opened it stays functional even if you lose internet access.
