  • There are some extra steps of adding the game steamid to a config file, but you can also use slssteam and just run the game through steam which is much cleaner on steam deck or deck like setups, and you can also use h3adcr-b to manage updates of sls and steam to prevent steam client updates before they are patchable.

    Benefits include seamless deck gamemode/big picture experience, easy proton version switching, mods and advanced config work like regular steam install so following guides for such will be easier. Its also an easy setup to use for linux vr which I have tested using wivrn and after the recent update also steamvr to steam link app on quest.

    Achievements don’t work out of the box, which is great those concerned about stealth or just dont want them, but by reverting the patched steam api dll to the backup, armageddon repacks change the original .dll to .ag for example, then running slscheevo or similar to generate missing files. There is a standard spot to find the .dll in all the common game engines but you can always search for “steam*.dll”.

    Supposedly online also works in a bunch of games but only with other people doing the same thing, with additional titles possible with extra work but I haven’t tested any of this and I don’t know if its different from the usual steam emu online methods.









  • Nothing. Get a mini pc with 2 or more ethernet ports and install openwrt or opnsense or maybe others I haven’t tried, get a standalone wifi AP so if you ever want to upgrade anything you can do it separately, get a network switch to connect additional wired computers or wifi APs.

    Then get in all the homelab groups and find the coolest stuff you also want and start making the home network made by you and for you.

    If you already have a wifi router that can be flashed with custom firmware you can also use that to start out and use it as a wifi access point for a more powerful pc router later
