A place to discuss and support all things Steam Deck.
Replacement for r/steamdeck_linux.
As Lemmy doesn't have flairs yet, you can use these prefixes to indicate what type of post you have made, eg:
[Flair] My post title
The following is a list of suggested flairs:
[Discussion] - General discussion.
[Help] - A request for help or support.
[News] - News about the deck.
[PSA] - Sharing important information.
[Game] - News / info about a game on the deck.
[Update] - An update to a previous post.
[Meta] - Discussion about this community.
Some more Steam Deck specific flairs:
[Boot Screen] - Custom boot screens/videos.
[Selling] - If you are selling your deck.
These are not enforced, but they are encouraged.
Rules:
That's probably not it, but in Linux the case of filenames matter. The standard folder for Heroic installs is ~/Games/Heroic and not /games/heroic. Make sure you are looking in the right folder.
~ means your home folder, so on the Steam Deck that would be /home/deck.
A slash / at the beginning indicates your system drive. While it is not impossible to configure Heroic to install games there I doubt this is the case unless you know what you are doing.
Click on the game in your library. On the game page click the three dots menu in the top right. Click Browse Files.
It doesn't work 😭
The path shows /games/heroic/silksong/ for example, but when I click it it doesn't open and when I navigate to that folder it's empty
Do you need to open the folder as administrator (right click folder in Dolphin, click "open as administrator")?
Seems unlikely, but do you have "show hidden files" checked off?
Heroic's installed as a Flatpak, right? Any path that flatpak doesn't actually allow out of the sandbox is going to be inside the sandbox.
find ~/.var/app/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl -iname games
That's probably it, i don't know what I'm doing lol
I'll check again with this suggestion, I'm convinced, I'm just digging in the wrong places, hopefully the lil ~ and the case will be the answer to my problems
