You can follow the effort here to squish the bug once and for all.
If you got the issue and want to send your logs etc check the comment a bit down
We will release 0.8.4b
As 0.8.3b did not fix the issue for all users we will do a minor patch of 0.8.4b that should move the folders correctly to retrodeck/ES-DE/ and force set the correct path in ES_Config.
The 0.8.0b branch is still on the old manifest and it is a bit unwieldy to debug and we are making changes to our testing routines and the tester user program.
In some more positive news for @everyone. As soon as we got this fixed we will post our blogpost for August detailing some of the work we have done during the summertime (the new manifest).

As well.
RetroDECK uses ES-DE but don’t support native games yet, so pure ES-DE is better for this.
It’s the spot we choose on the empty canvas for the RetroDECK logo.
But as a DM myself I hope we can both coexist.
The RetroDECK Team loves D&D and TRPGs

I agree, mistakes and vulnerabilites happen in all software commercial and open. Now I can only speak for RetroDECK but, we also make mistakes and need to do minor patches to fix those.
I think Jorge and the team handled it as you should: Be transparent, inform on all channels they can and learn from your mistakes.
Me personally have full confidence in them.
Those that try to hide or shift blame of mistakes are a bigger red flag in my book.
Jorge, Kyle and the others over at ublue is doing a great job with their Fedora spins.
I run Bazzite on all my computers and if you got a full AMD system you can even get full gamemode running by installing the deck image. This in turn give you the best controller experience for games, as Desktop Steam got several issues with Steam Input valve have not fixed yet.
But not all credit should go to them for this but also ChimeraOS team, Nobara and others that are constantly working on an improved gaming experience on Linux.
When developing RetroDECK Steam Input profiles I mainly use the Steam Deck with SteamOS and Bazzite on my desktop to test them.
5·5 months agoA big problem is that the elderly are those getting scammed the most. The elderly have been punished for bank usage every step on the way by the banks that wants nothing more then to cut costs. The banks removed all types of services the elderly population where using. Cash bill payments, cash investment, cash withdrawal/deposit and general handling of cash.
They also made their ID verification extremely unsecure with their property Bank ID solution and did nothing for a decade to make any effort to make it remotely safe to use (until this May of 2024 where you need to scan a QR code next to you with a pin).
All the scammers needed to do was call the elderly say it they where from the bank and ask them to input their pin on the phone to transfer everything they ever had out of their account.
Many of the elderly are tech-illiterate and don’t understand and some even have problems with a normal debit card.
The banks always pointed the blame towards those they removed the services from. Made unsecure solutions that they did not understand all for the sake of vast profits.
As some other user said mugging might be down because it was easier for the criminals to not only steal some few cash from a mugging but everything you ever saved for an entire life with tiny scams.
6·5 months agoDepends on the context of the setting and the story. I mostly tend to allow all official PC races without any objection. I see an adventurer as an outlier of society and not the norm.
In the games I tend to run I either swing between everything is allowed or just one is allowed.
If I want to do an mini adventure about a goblin clan fighting a kobold incursion, then everyone is playing goblins.

It is the version that ships with RetroArch so it got all the features of that.
But it is based on an older version of Citra so there no hotkey support and the performance is not as good.
But it is also the only version we can ship.
The Ponzu feature can be used to load legacy versions of removed emulators without support.
We have pressed the publish button on Flathub (Discover) so it should show up within a few hours :)

2·8 months agoEveryone is removing Yuzu & Citra as they are both made by the same company, shared code and team thus affected by lawsuit.
EmuDeck is also removing both as far as we understand.
ES-DE might also remove support for it, so it can not just find the files.
We are looking into alternatives, I will look into why the link above broke.

RetroDECK is a flatpak application that builds in a variety of emulators and systems into one app you can download from flathub.
We are also working on the “Add to Steam” function. You can read more about it in the links posted in other replies in this thread :)
RetroDECK CM Here:
First Question:
When I plug a controller in and try to play something with Dolphin, many times I have to go and swap the controller in Dolphin’s gamepad setup, otherwise it doesn’t see the controller.
A: We recommend using the Steam Input interface to leverage order switching, look here:
We are also working on better external controller support with a variety of hotkey for the next big update 0.8b.
You can even download and test them right now (check the comments for latest ZIP):
They are subject to rapid change as I’m rethinking several aspects of them, until their first version in 0.8b.
I’m also trying to utilize some features unique features for certain controllers more.
For example right now:
- DualSense and DualShock 4 can use their touchpad for as cursor movement for: Wiimote pointer, Lightgun aim and shoot, General mouse for like point and click SCUMMVM games.
- The Steam Controller can do the same as above but… has back buttons L4 and R4 so I’m using R4 as a mode switcher to change the right circular touchpad into various forms between mousemode and joystick mode. I’m also experimenting with arcade trackball mode for it for games like Centipede.
Second Question:
Someone else mentioned that it’s possible to use emudeck to launch games directly from steam. Is this possible with retrodeck, and if not, are you planning to implement the ability to do something like that?
A: Yes, we are working on it and have it semi working in our cooker (development builds).
