Your tutorial is the only one I found to get my OLED to work with this launcher, many thanks!!! PS - Your bonus tip is the cherry on top. 😊 Two thumbs up!
Thank you for this! That was super easy to follow, got it up and running (really love the idea to link the Games folder) everything is neat and organized 👏🏻
Man this is such a big game changer! Og GTA’s are amazing on a handheld! Also ran a couple of delisted games from back in the days and it’s crazy how good it runs! Thank you so much!
Legend. Got my oled steam deck 2 days ago and through other videos couldn't get anything working. With this video got it working. Ran into issue when trying to enter ny rockstar login details keyboard kept disappearing when i was in desktop mode on the steam deck. So i got into rockstar via game mode and that worked like a charm. Red dead redemption 2 loading up for playing can't wait
A wired, physical keyboard is very useful for many of my videos. Hit up your local goodwill and get one for a couple of bucks and chuck it in a drawer for these weirdo times. Glad you're up and running.
Thank you, i am very happy you showed it step by stem, as most people say Do this! and go trough it like a speeding train, wich makes me non the wiser, but this video does! thanks man.
@@Darkuni Hi, so I got RDR1 through steam and had to download & install the Rockstar Launcher, but it didn't let me install it on my SD card. Do you know how I could find the folder location of where the launcher is installed on the internal storage, and move it to my SD card storage? I didn't change anything during the installation, and I did try to check the CompatData Location you put down in the description, but it isn't showing up for me
thank you so so so so much. i cant say thank you enough. i bought all these games and i couldnt get the keys to work but using your video deff helped!!!
Your videos are so helpful sir thank you so much. Just got my 1tb oled deck and loving it. i really want to install Ubisoft launcher but am a little unsure of the correct and safest way.
@@Darkuni I can't use the linked folder method because it doesn't work anymore, but I can boot up the launcher and start the game from the launcher. It works but it's a bit inconvenient.
When i get to the login page i can't tyyyype anything 😭. Not with a physical keyboard nor with the virtual one. The fields are highlighted but nothing is in them when typing
Well, it is a STEAM Deck, not a Rockstar Deck, right? :) Seriously - wait for a sale and repurchase the games in question on Steam. 100x easier. Blame the greedy publishers for demanding you buy games from their crappy lockers and not steam :)
I thought I was buying a minute PlayStation. That's why I was surprised I have to deal with this garbage. Bottom line I was not able to finish the instructions. I couldn't find That's folder that you need to change. By the rock star launcher.
I installed it and everything worked but after playing for a couple days now suddenly it shows me the install button again, and I can’t access the game. Im confused like should I install it again or wth?
These launchers are a nightmare. When they stop working (and they always do) you don't know if it is something YOU did or if the launcher is just BROKE again. Truth is? I rebought all my Rockstar games on Steam so I don't have to worry about this crap anymore. You could stop into the Discord and see if we can help you before you do everything again.
I can’t find the game launcher files once I downloaded and installed the launcher. I type the file name you said to and nothing pops up. Past deck/home I don’t have a .local file. I can’t seem to save it in a file I can find either.
Found it. You just need to click the three lines on your upper right which is basically the menu and then choose show hidden files and then you gonna find the launcher files and everything else
Hi. Can you make a video for gta5 mods for this launcher? And how can I connect my PS5 controller if I play with the launcher? And Thank you a lot your video is the easier guide for me
Thank you, I followed the tutorial, but after rebooting the deck, Launcher.exe was deleted and couldn’t not start. I would recommend using a simple location like ~/Games/ for the installation.
I've never once (going on 2 years now) had a non-steam game removed from the Deck without me doing something. If you ever figure out why, please let us know.
Hi Shane @MonroeWorld. A mate of mine who's owned his deck for a year now recommends I just dual boot rather than install non-steam launchers with methods like you've posted here. He says when Steam update their OS, it often breaks these kind of installs, and also that these kinds of configurations duplicate game config data on the deck in a messy way. I don't mind 'messy' too much, but I'm stuck between your method here (which I like, because everything is in one place!), and dual boot (the mere thought of which annoys me). What can you tell us about the stability of launchers (and their games) installed this way? My deck should arrive in the next few days, so keen to hear what you think! :) Thanks in advance
When I pull up the the rockstar games launcher properties to assign it a proton compatibility layer there is no option for compatibility under shortcut, all I have is controller?
@MonroeWorld how did you get the rockstar icon to show on the .exe file? when i download the rockstar launcher it just shows as a generic icon inside of dolphin file manager. Thanks for all your content. Keep up the good work!
I went and added red dead 2 to steam from the games folder and it won’t launch. I clicked to force compatibility and it doesn’t do anything. Did I do something wrong
There doesn't seem to be a compatdata in my folders.. I've gone ahead with downloading RDR2 and im hoping the desktop shortcut will take me straight to the game 😬 not sure if I'll be kicking myself further down the line..
buddy, thanks for this tips but can i get a little help with providing a cloud link with the "social club" latest version 2.2.3.4, it's the problem holding my gta5 from running 🥺... .
@@LadyChubby-xk1xj are you saying the version that you're downloading via this video is not the latest? And after you install this version it doesn't update itself to the latest?
Ah, I give up. The launcher doesn't seem to show my library, just available titles to "buy now". Despite the fact that I own RDR2 on Steam which I completed a few months prior. I planned to play the free social club version of GTA V I got a while back, guess that isn't happening.
You own RDR2 on Steam; not Rockstar. Sideloading Rockstar like this isn't going to get you access to the game. You can only play it from where you bought it. This is the same with any publisher's third party launcher. Most people that report an issue with Rockstar not showing their titles is that they had multiple accounts - and what they obtained was on another account. That's the only thing I can think of regarding your GTA V.
@@Darkuni It sucks that R* had to make things so unnecessarily complicated. Thanks for the prompt response, I'll give support a shot to see if there's anything I can do
Your tutorial is good amazing the way you explained followed all your steps correctly but when I am typing my email and password in the box it won't let me type with the keyboard on my steam deck not sure what's missing won't let me type anything to log in this rockstar game launcher
How do I uninstall the rockstar games launcher from steam deck? I cannot find a video anywhere. I found the launcher in Steam. I just don’t know how to delete it.
Just remove the non-steam game entry for the launcher. Anything in the proton prefix that was created for the launcher will be wiped out. Didn't used to be so - but it is now.
My OLED deck wont even run the installer. I click play, the green button turns blue and is stuck there spinning until the end of time. Wont open at all no matter what Proton compatibility layer I use.
@@Darkuni Okay so I restarted my deck and tried again it worked. I was in desktop mode yes but for some reason my deck was just not playing nice. I can confirm that I now have the launcher installed ready to go. I've been through several different videos on TH-cam and this one is by far the easiest and most straight forward to use so from the bottom of my heart THANKYOU
Okay now I'm stuck again, I downloaded GTA VI and when I try to open it it's asking me to reinstall the launcher? It's not opening the game. Any clues?
@@Darkuni when I launch the launcher my games are not showing up. It's asking me to buy GTA IV or input a key if I already own it but I don't know how to find it the key? When I hover over GTA IV press start and the menu appears, normally I go and click "manage" it would normally have an option for "CD Key" it's giving me the key for Max Payne 3 but not 1 or 2 or GTA IV. I previously had all this working on my LCD Steam Deck and GTA IV was playable on that. I have since moved over to the OLED deck and I am lost 🤣
@@themasterofnothing4978 pardon, thanks for replying but can i know the current version of your social club.. 🥺 can you please spare minute and check this out for me?
I got the launcher working... but now when I try signing in with credentials that work fine on my PC, my deck says "Email not found or password is invalid". Any ideas?
okay so i got everything set up like followed up all the steps my rockstar game launcher is working on my steam deck but problem now i am having is when type my email when keyboard comes just typing 1 letter my keyboard disappear and i am not able to type my email or my password something wrong in my keyboard steamdeck
You're likely going to have to use a real keyboard or a BT app on the phone. These lockers are not Deck friendly - we have to work around 'em sometimes.
@Darkuni also when I open rockstar launcher in big picture mode on my steam deck when I type my email password works there perfectly but without big picture mode it won't let me type anything
@@Darkunisorry im just very new to this so I got confused, rewatched again and now im starting to understand what you did with the storage aspect and I did that way and have no issues so far. I’ll be back if I have questions again I should’ve just payed attention 🤣👍
Check this out ... I forgot to add this to the description... th-cam.com/video/j5flKpTP-tg/w-d-xo.html If you're still down, I'll mark the video for a refresh.
@@thegamingdrew3105 So that was it, eh? I guess I'll refresh with this "fix" in the main video. Most of the other big locker videos have been refreshed - suppose I should do this one too.
On my steamdek when launching rockstar launcher cant press button to play game its diaabled and says "this feature is not currently available" i think launcher cant connect to the rockstar services any ideas how to fix it?
Keyboard doesn't work when i want to login.... Tried bluetooth keyboard through my phone, doesn't work either God i would have never bought this if i knew everything would be so annoying
@@Darkuni nah not worth the price of a keyboard, it's 14€ on steam, guess i'll just buy it there 😅 i even tried to map a CTRL+c CTRL+v on some buttons and copy paste my password but didn't work... Thanks for the vid anyway, very well explained !
@@vladiski thing is? If you want to color outside the lines? You need to buy the box of crayons. This won't be the first time you need a keyboard in your deck ownership. I promise you. :)
Did you find any fix for the social club launcher app not finding the already installed gta 5 game, and trying to make me install it again? It's literally in my system taking up storage but I cannot launch it as it says install only.
@@Darkuni I'm not sure, i only installed everything yesterday, and the game launched automatically just fine. I have tried moving the gta 5 folder around to the home folder etc but nothing has worked so far
Im new to pc and steamdeck i tried following all the steps until i had to copy location from the compatdata. But the option wasn't there so i decided to start over so i tried to deleted it and end up deleting that new folder in that compatdata. Idk if i was supposed to. Now it doesn't let me go to its properties when i downloaded it again and added it ro the non steam game. Idk what to do
You're fine Just give it another go. Maybe watch some of the other videos of digital lockers that I've done... The rock stars one of the oldest ones in the queue and it may be a little out of date at this point. All of these are going to get a refresh this year. I just refreshed Ubisoft if you want to referral.
Hi, I just download the launcher successfully, and I downloaded GTA V, when I launched the game, it didn’t recognize that I’m using steam deck, the icons of the buttons in the game still showing PC icons like space, enter, tap… etc. The steam buttons works but not all the buttons, I can aim and fire but I can’t move in the game. How can I change that like I want to use A B X Y buttons, sorry for my bad explanation. Please help.
Pretty much impossible. If your Deck is playing games, you have a compatData folder. Configure Dolphin with this: th-cam.com/video/ckEOi6v7xvY/w-d-xo.html
can i play the game through Steam os? because i tried to add it (non steam) when i launch the game i need to open my internet in order to play it say i need a online verification in order to play the game. when i play it offline it always say " You need a online verification to play the game"@@Darkuni
Well .... where to start ... :P First, you bought a STEAM Deck .. not a Rockstar Deck. Steam isn't going to benefit fiscally from you buying and installing Rockstar Launcher games, right? Rockstar doesn't care about Steam Deck - so they aren't going to make it "easy" for you ... In the end? We need to be thankful we can do this at all....
F rock star social club. Ive been locked from my account from trying to unlinked from steam. No matter the question I rightfully answered Iam being told Iam not the owner to my got dam account. Even when I send them my gamer tag, Id, game price, date, day time as far back to 2015. As well as my email. Still Iam being told Iam not the owner to that account. Stop supporting this bs social club. 😬😬
Not saying this is you, but a lot of people seem to have forgotten what Rockstar account they used to originally buy a game. They end up having multiple accounts and can't find their game because it is on another account. Just a thought.

If you're still down, I'll mark the video for a refresh.
@Darkuni worked to perfection now can finally play red dead 2 cheers
@@thegamingdrew3105 So that was it, eh? I guess I'll refresh with this "fix" in the main video. Most of the other big locker videos have been refreshed - suppose I should do this one too.
@Darkuni yeah crazy how simple just doing that was.
@Darkuni I grew up with windows 😂
On my steamdek when launching rockstar launcher cant press button to play game its diaabled and says "this feature is not currently available" i think launcher cant connect to the rockstar services any ideas how to fix it?
I haven't seen that particular issue. Have you tried other networks?
Keyboard doesn't work when i want to login.... Tried bluetooth keyboard through my phone, doesn't work either God i would have never bought this if i knew everything would be so annoying
That's ... strange. Most people can. Can you borrow or get a super cheap USB-C keyboard?
@@Darkuni nah not worth the price of a keyboard, it's 14€ on steam, guess i'll just buy it there 😅 i even tried to map a CTRL+c CTRL+v on some buttons and copy paste my password but didn't work... Thanks for the vid anyway, very well explained !
@@vladiski thing is? If you want to color outside the lines? You need to buy the box of crayons. This won't be the first time you need a keyboard in your deck ownership. I promise you. :)
same here :(
BRO JUST OPEN IT IN GAMING MODE
What is the way to put the game save file at 100 when downloading it from Rockstar Launcher? Please reply

worked on linux mint
do i need to install rockstar games launcher if i wanna play gta 4 or 5 on linux?. i have those games on steam
No. Steam will handle it.
Did you find any fix for the social club launcher app not finding the already installed gta 5 game, and trying to make me install it again? It's literally in my system taking up storage but I cannot launch it as it says install only.
Same version? I don't believe the binaries between lockers are compatible ... Could that be it?
@@Darkuni I'm not sure, i only installed everything yesterday, and the game launched automatically just fine. I have tried moving the gta 5 folder around to the home folder etc but nothing has worked so far
@@zabbas9371 maybe swing by the discord. One of us there can help you easier than here on YT
@@Darkuni for sure will do thanks
Im new to pc and steamdeck i tried following all the steps until i had to copy location from the compatdata. But the option wasn't there so i decided to start over so i tried to deleted it and end up deleting that new folder in that compatdata. Idk if i was supposed to. Now it doesn't let me go to its properties when i downloaded it again and added it ro the non steam game. Idk what to do
You're fine Just give it another go. Maybe watch some of the other videos of digital lockers that I've done... The rock stars one of the oldest ones in the queue and it may be a little out of date at this point. All of these are going to get a refresh this year. I just refreshed Ubisoft if you want to referral.
If i dowland epic games luncher and rockstar games lubcher i can pkay gta5 online on my pc account ?
No clue. I do not use nor support Epic Games on this channel. Sorry. I'm sure there are other YT channels that can help you.
Hi, I just download the launcher successfully, and I downloaded GTA V, when I launched the game, it didn’t recognize that I’m using steam deck, the icons of the buttons in the game still showing PC icons like space, enter, tap… etc. The steam buttons works but not all the buttons, I can aim and fire but I can’t move in the game. How can I change that like I want to use A B X Y buttons, sorry for my bad explanation. Please help.
Did you try changing the Steam Input to GAMEPAD?
Can you tell me what to do? I want to install the game on the SD card
I don't cover that in this video?
@@Darkuni ah, yes, you did. Im just blind
I don't have a compatdata folder. Why?
Pretty much impossible. If your Deck is playing games, you have a compatData folder. Configure Dolphin with this: th-cam.com/video/ckEOi6v7xvY/w-d-xo.html
@@Darkuni I didn't either until I used your Dolphin Configuration video. Thanks!
Does it work with Gog launcher and with the same game folder configuration ?
I'm not sure I'm clear on your question... Does what work with GOG launcher?
the way to install launcher and games folder using specific link
@@ihatelesenfants1425 Yes, should be the same across them all.
Can i do this on an imac computer? I dont have a windows computer
This tutorial is just for Steam Deck.
@@Darkuni yea I have a steam deck, but i own an imac computer. Can i still follow this process? Thanks for the reply btw
@@orignlchris4766 This is all done "on device" - a PC isn't required.
@@Darkuni thanks💯 my bad im new to the steamdeck
THANKS
great vid thank you brother
i downloaded gta iv and it crashes alot does any body have a solution for this problem
I would check out ProtonDB and Reddit for other users' experiences and fix offerings.
Merci
hello .i just want to ask. i have already Installed the game in Steam. shoud uninstalled it and install again through launcher or should i leave it
No, this video is for people that bought games through Rockstar, not steam.
can i play the game through Steam os? because i tried to add it (non steam) when i launch the game i need to open my internet in order to play it say i need a online verification in order to play the game. when i play it offline it always say " You need a online verification to play the game"@@Darkuni
Why the hell is this so complicated!!!
Well .... where to start ... :P First, you bought a STEAM Deck .. not a Rockstar Deck. Steam isn't going to benefit fiscally from you buying and installing Rockstar Launcher games, right? Rockstar doesn't care about Steam Deck - so they aren't going to make it "easy" for you ... In the end? We need to be thankful we can do this at all....
I cant find the compadata💔
Do you have SHOW HIDDEN FILES turned on with Dolphin? Worth a viewing of my Dolphin Tricks and Tips? th-cam.com/video/ckEOi6v7xvY/w-d-xo.html
F rock star social club. Ive been locked from my account from trying to unlinked from steam. No matter the question I rightfully answered Iam being told Iam not the owner to my got dam account. Even when I send them my gamer tag, Id, game price, date, day time as far back to 2015. As well as my email. Still Iam being told Iam not the owner to that account. Stop supporting this bs social club. 😬😬
It's absolutely ridiculous The hoops and BS that we have to jump through to play games that we own on a device that we want.
I feel this. Happened a few years ago had to rebuy all my shit and can’t use any rockstar games I have on steam that require the launcher
This didn't help
Help what ... exactly?
Why does mine says buy now instead of install now
Not saying this is you, but a lot of people seem to have forgotten what Rockstar account they used to originally buy a game. They end up having multiple accounts and can't find their game because it is on another account. Just a thought.
