The thing that is so rediculous about this is it's nothing to do with the Steam Deck, it's completely on companies like Avtivision. If they were to install a propper anti-cheat than it'll play just fine. Actually, the only reason it's not playing is because they put that stuff on their game and that's the only reason people like me haven't bought their game as they are making it non-accissable for me so good job Activision on keeping a potential buyer from buying your stuff.
You are 100% right, In the case of Activision and Bungie, their anti-cheat COULD work on proton, but they are too lazy for compatibility, Call Of Duty and Destiny could EASILY run on Linux if they even cared
@@SchmutzProductionsalso outher reason used windows 11. Older pc games way easily set up like tron evolution trust this post on protondb said
Too much work to make game functional without a lot of under-the-hood tinkering
Tinker Steps:
Switch to experimental, Changed configuration, protontricks
Used workarounds for SecuROM and GFWL as well as installed PhysX legacy drivers via protontricks
Control Layout:
Switch To Community Layout: TRON Evolution 360 Controller Layout
Input:
Controller Detection
Save Games:
Other
Game saving is tied to GFWL unless disabled using Xliveless DLL hack
A patching tool is desperately needed for this game on both PC and Steam Deck
Windows 11 fixed run natively work fine. Only dual boot windows 11 two reason
1. Care about Online auti cheats games.
2. Care plan very old pc ports that workaround on linux very hard.
There is even an anti-xheat compatibility Layer using Proton on Heroic Launcher 😂. But some games like COD MWII and Destiny 2 could detect it and ban you.
@@ucky9226 Exactly. The worst part about that too is that people even use the anti-cheat capability as a way of cheating themselves and the only thing people accomplish is letting some company access parts of your computer that they have no right accessing. I for one would only use the compatibility and would rather be banned then give them that kind of administrative access to my personal things.
I've been running windows on deck for a while now I enjoy tinkering with the deck. I do play COD on deck just because I'm a workaholic and never have time to sit down but playing it on the go or on break is definitely why I got the deck. I also don't just play cod I use the steam deck like a computer I watch shows play other games and listen to music. But I definitely don't think windeck is for everyone. for the price and the freedom deck provides is ultimately why I got it
I feel like the steam deck was built for people in situations like yours and I truly believe having windows gives the freedom to play/do whatever you want with your deck. Im glad its worked out for you!
I have been dual booting on an sd card have little to no issues however i only play a few games on the sd card as i primarily play single player on the ssd in the deck i don't think i would recomend most people do this as load times for the operting system are slow and sluggish running it off of the sd card but if you want to dual boot while not making a partition on your ssd this is a great option because it saves more space on your steamdecks ssd and it is easier to format the sd card and use it for extra storage if you don't like the windows experience on the deck than to undo a partition
Im glad that worked for you! Thats a super convenient option and like you said, undoing it is as easy as taking the SD Card out.
Hi there,
I’m considering dual boot my steam deck to have game pass games on it.
Which tutorial did you follow to figure out this on your sdcard ?
Do you have a good feed back about the experience ?
Thank you so much, appreciate it
gamepass windows is the only reason why i want to dual boot, i hope we get the drivers for the OLED soon
I'm interested in nothing game related. Windows runs Autocad Inventor the best. I'm looking to take my game device to the next level and provide me a place to continue my 3d modeling hobby to generate printable items on the go.
Hi there. this is a great explanation. I play a lot of Ubisoft titles. The games seem stupid prices on steam but they play junk via the unisoft launcher on deck. Do you think installing windows would be an advantage? Thanks
If you see willing to put in a little bit of work to get it running smoothly, I think it would be a worthwhile endeavor for you, there are way more tools for optimization on windows than there is on linux. Hope this helps! I really appreciate the input!
I'm near the end of Lies of P playing exclusiviely on deck (Gamepass/windows) and perfoermance mode runs beautifully just install steam deck tools and put X360 controller as a default
The deck tools make everything so much smoother of an experience
I want to play World of Warcraft and Call of Duty with my steam games. WHAT is the downside of dual booting? Doesnt it allow you to go back and forward between normal boot and windows boot?
With the proper GUI setup (Check Deck Wizard on YT for a tutorial) you just switch between them on boot, super seamless and makes the dual boot alot prettier.
@SchmutzProductions hey thanks for the reply I will also try gamepass streaming to see if I need to do that for cod and fortnite
You can play warcraft wiv out windows just look it up
@@XBASS247 I been playing wow on steamdeck as is. Working fine without windows :)
I am planning on buying an micro SD card, install Windows on it and boot it when I need/want it, so I keep my future Steam OS intact.
So i cancelled my Xbox live/ game pass, but i have a lot of steam games. I play steam games on my desktop pc, if i dual boot windows on my deck, can i play COD WZ thru my steam games while booting on windows in my deck? (Like how i play cod on my desktop pc thru steam app)
Yes you can! The anti cheat blocks steam os because it cant do the checks on linux that it does on windows. So if you boot it on windows it will work just fine!
Sounds like the best thing is to have a Rog Ally since you can put steam on it also. Unless you just have to have the track pads which I never use on my deck.
Personally I’d rather just keep steam os & get cloud gaming running on it & just play cod etc from there
Yes do it
Is it worth doing if I am looking into modding cyberpunk 2077? I know I can do it in steam os, but I've heard it is much easier on windows.
I would assume windows would be much easier for that. The Linux File Explorer is VERY different from windows and if you are not used to it you can get lost and frustrated very easily.
If you have a desktop you can mod the game on it and then copy the files on your deck
iam puting 2tb ssd into my steam deck i will dual boot it to have more option
1TB per Partition will be really nice for each OS, Plenty of room for games on each
promo sm 😣
Apparently, Gamepass works on Steam Deck.
With Remote Play and Streaming, you can play gamepass on SteamOS but to play games natively from gamepass on the steam deck you have to install Windows unfortunately.
@@SchmutzProductions So cloud gaming instead of installing ? Sad...
@@ucky9226 Yah I wish there was a way to get them locally installed on Steam OS. Maybe in the future it might be possible. The community for the steam deck has done some wild things already.
Can you dual boot windows rn on the steam deck oled or no? If so is it safe to do it because I want to play games with anti cheat
Yes it is safe and the same process as the tutorials you will find on TH-cam.
@@SchmutzProductions I just don’t get audio and some other stuff because of the unreleased drivers right?
@@SchmutzProductions also can I dual boot steam os and windows both? People are saying u can’t
@@suplex3067 With the proper GUI you can have the deck ask you which OS you would like when you boot it up
@@suplex3067 There are drivers out now that allow for audio and they work pretty well in my experience!
What pc you have
Nothing special at all on the desktop side, ive got an i7 4790K, a gtx 1080 TI, and 32 GB RAM
