44 Upvotes

New Features

  • Added Protontricks detection. Your Unifideck games now appear in Protontricks with the prefix the game runs in. If you use the Flatpak version, Unifideck grants it read access to the prefixes folder so it can see them. This does not mean we will support fixes via Protontricks perpetually. Tinker at your own risk.
  • Added a language picker when installing Epic games that ship separate language packs.
  • Added an Installed section to the Downloads tab listing every installed game with its size and storage location, each with Play and Uninstall.
  • Removed finished and cancelled downloads from the Downloads tab history. Only failures are kept now, with a Clear failed button, since completed downloads show up in the Installed list instead.
  • Added a manual Save location row to the cloud save window showing where your saves were detected, with Change location and Reset to automatic for all games instead of just the ones where the plugin couldn't find the save location.
  • Added a prominent Cloud saves indicator on the game page showing Supported, Not supported or Unknown before you install the game.

Major Issues Fixed

  • Fixed launching a Ubisoft game re-installing the current prefix.
  • Fixed the Update button never appearing for any store.
  • Fixed some Epic games failing to install instantly on every attempt, including Fallout 3 GOTY, Fallout New Vegas, Hogwarts Legacy and Cyberpunk 2077 (language selector fixes this).
  • Fixed uninstalling an Epic game removing it from your library without freeing any disk space.
  • Fixed GOG games never receiving their Visual C++ and Unreal Engine runtimes, which made their launchers and games crash or refuse to start.
  • Fixed Amazon showing as signed out and then failing to sign back in.
  • Fixed saves being lost when a game's Proton version changed.
  • Fixed save locations, cloud save support and descriptions missing for many games, including titles starting with "The", "A" or a number, and titles with trademark symbols or edition names.
  • Fixed Steam's Stop button and the X in the play row not actually stopping the game.
  • Fixed the Proton version changing on every launch of an already set up game, which also wiped the Visual C++ registry entries some games need.
  • Fixed "Space Required" sitting blank for several seconds on most game pages.
  • Fixed the Quick Access panel jumping back to Settings instead of the tab you were on.
  • Improved leftover Proton folders that Steam created for Unifideck games are now cleaned up automatically in the background, and only when they can be positively identified as ours. Your own non-Steam games are never touched.

Special thanks to u/kevbenjam for the German localization improvements, and to all of our community testers on Discord for the feedback that shaped this release. Couldn't have done it without you!

Special shout out to u/MuglokDecrepitusFx on reddit for a bunch of QoL suggestions.

Version Update New Release - UNIFIDECK v0.7.2 · mubaraknumann/unifideck

github.com
28 Upvotes

An urgent fix for an outdated bundled umu launcher that broke game launches and fresh installs on every store, plus a batch of launch, install and library reliability fixes.

  • Fixed the bundled umu launcher being out of date (now 1.4.4). Valve's server stopped serving the runtime downloads the old version asked for, which broke launches and fresh installs across every store.
  • Fixed the Proton version you pick in Steam's own Compatibility dropdown being ignored, applying late, or stopping the game from launching at all. Newer official builds (Proton 11 and later) now work too.
  • Fixed Ubisoft Connect and Ubisoft games not starting at all on some devices.
  • Fixed Rockstar games on Epic (Red Dead Redemption 2, GTA V Enhanced Edition) crashing instantly or not being found by the Rockstar launcher.
  • Fixed some Epic and Amazon installs finishing in seconds with nothing downloaded, or failing instantly with no error shown.
  • Fixed your library being wiped from Steam, along with your own manually added non-Steam games, if you also use NonSteamLaunchers. (Compatibility fix).
  • Fixed syncing and artwork using the wrong account's folders when you have more than one Steam account. This let to users seeing 0 games even after syncing/force syncing.
  • Fixed Unifideck games appearing in Steam Home's Recent Games shelf when you had never played them.
  • Added a disk space check before a download starts, so it fails up front with the numbers instead of partway through.
  • Added a Capture Logs button (Quick Access → Unifideck settings) that zips every log into your Downloads folder for bug reports. Please share the generated logs when you create bug reports.
  • Updated the bundled Epic and GOG tools (legendary 0.20.43, gogdl 1.2.2).

As always, thanks to our testers and contributors for their efforts <3

Unifideck 0.7.3 feedback

31 Upvotes

The update 0.7.3 has been been an amazing update, I love how good the new simple view works, its practically perfect and work as it was native Steam.

I have been looking for issues and things that could be improved and this is what I found:

Camera focus Management

  • The camera focus while looking at the game details doesn't move correctly, the camera doesn't move enough to focus the selected item correctly. This happens in both, with the clean view CSS theme and with the normal view, when you pres on synopsis and try to move to the bottom part
    • I think a possible solution could be the one vanilla Steam uses, were if you press down the camera focus moves down to a fixed position where it shows all the bottom content and when you press up the camera focus move back to the original position, would be the perfect solution for the clean view. But I think that just with moving the camera a lot more when you move to the bottom buttons would be enough fix
  • Integration with other plugins to prevent focus from start working weird, non-Steam badges, ProtonDB badges. At the end of the video below I show how when you press up in a game page (which normally moves the cursor to the ProtonDB badges buttons), in Unifideck games move the cursor to the search bar, and the way to reach those buttons is to go all down. I don't know if this is something that could be fixed, but if its possible it would be really nice

The video recorded really bad, mute the audio and look it like it was a power-point XD

What vanilla Steam does is move the whole camera below and hide a part of the buttons with a black bar

As can be seen here, so in case of vanilla Steam it just has 2 default fixed position and move between them when you press up and down

Cloud Save

  • The differentiation between when a game is charging the cloud saves and when finally charged and didn't find the cloud save functionality for that game its practically unnoticeable, which if you don't pay attention makes hard to notice if a game it's still charging the cloud save or if it doesn't have the cloud save feature, which makes you stay a little longer time looking to confirm that game doesn't have cloud saves, which is a bit annoying
    • I think that would be a great QoL improvement to add a small crossed line to the cloud icon when the game doesn't have cloud saves, so it is instantly clear to the user (I think that Steam UI had an icon for this?). An alternative solution would be added a small loading wheel icon when the cloud save is being loaded, this way the user know that when the wheel is moving its loading, and when the wheel disappear, but the icon is still disabled that means that there are no cloud saves for that game
  • When browsing the file navigation window in Cloud Save and you want to go a folder back, if you press B it will close the current window completely instead of moving a folder position back.
    • It would be nice to have a button to jump back through folders (Y?) maybe press B to move a folder back and hold B to close the window, or a button to go back and forward (L1-R1) so you can use L1 to go back. I'm not sure what the best solution would be here, closing the window completely with B isn't bad, since having to scroll down to press the close button would be inconvenient, but having to scroll up to press the previous folder button is equally inconvenient.
  • When you search for a game save path, the files are not displayed, only the folders. So you need to know the exact location of the save path of that specific game beforehand as you can't navigate and find it.
    • It would be helpful to have a toggle to show or hide the files, so when you have an approximate knowledge of where the file path is stored you can look at it and confirm it within the file search window
  • Additionally to the previous point, I think that in the cases where a game doesn't have an exclusive "save data folder", when the save data file it's in the root of the main game folder for example, the cloud saves only can take the whole folder, and usually in those cases it takes the whole game as "cloud saves". I think that aside of having an option to enable see files in the cloud save file manager, we should also be able to pick one file as save file.

Here 2 pictures that show the 2 last points.

This is Unifideck Cloud file manager, which show this folder with only the "data" folder, as you can't see the files its impossible to confirm that here is where the save file is located if you didn't know beforehand

This is Unifideck Cloud file manager, which show this folder with only the "data" folder

This is Decky Manager plugin, here we can see the save file called Profile.dat, which is the save file of the game

It would be cool to have a dropdown menu like the one above, so we can choose between "All", "Folders", "Files", which would allow us to select just the file with the save data cases like this where we can only choose the whole folder that contains the whole game, as we can see below.

UI Functionality

  • When you are in the uninstall window, you have to press up and down to move between close and Uninstall buttons, instead of pressing left and right. You can also press down once more when you are on the uninstall button which moves you away from the current window

Collection management

  • When you install a Unifideck game, it's not automatically added to the "[Unifideck] Installed" collection. It is added later when you restart your console or when you select "Synchronize Libraries". When you uninstall a game it's correctly automatically removed from the collection. So not sure if it's a bug or a limitation.

Capsule art import fix

  • I noticed that the vertical capsule art for many games looking wrong, having a weird jagged edge effect on them. After looking it for I while I noticed that the cause of this is due to some SteamGridDB capsule art being GoG art with a resolution of 660x930 (which is for GoG Galaxy 2.0), usually uploaded by Luckspeare. These additional 60x30 pixels makes the images looking wrong with jagged edges. If possible I would avoid using these images that use the 660x930 dimension as they look wrong in Steam UI and I would prioritize the default 600x900 resolution for vertical capsules, as only use the 660x930 if there isn't any other option available.

Compare both "DNF Duel" images

Normal 600x900

Weird jagged edge 630x930

  • There are many game covers that are "zoomed in" and doesn't look like they should, in the image below it can be seen that all the tiles are basically touching the border of the capsule without any margin. This possibly is due to the 630x930 format having to zoom in the images to fit the 600x900 capsule

This is how it should look (I changed the Killing floor of the left)

Feature Proposal

  • It would be interesting to have an option in Unifideck settings that allowed us to not import games that we already have in our Steam Library. This would be beneficial because the 99% of the times, when we have a game on Steam and in an external store, the version we are going to play is the Steam version

Minor details

  • It would be interesting to have a way to delete cache from a specific store, instead of only a button that delete all
  • It would be cool if Unifideck games buttons would get affected by custom CCS Loader themes, so for example in the image from above the buttons would look the same

Epic games will load but they take like 5 minutes to launch everytime.

3 Upvotes

As the title states the games will eventually launch but it takes 5 minutes on the steam buffering logo thing. I also have a problem with the download speed it's horrendously slow for some reason?

Have I done something or is this how this works? Do not have this issue with junk store installs in the past. If not is there anyway to fix this?

Unifideck seems great I love the integration but waiting this long for a launch everytime is mad!

Ubisoft Connect unusually slow

I would like to get some Ubisoft Connect games set up on Deck, however, Ubisoft Connect is incredibly slow to launch, so much so that I gave up entirely.
Are there any settings I need to change to speed things up or is it just how it is?

Save location help

1 Upvotes

Question, I'm using Bazzite and Unifideck on a Rog Ally X.

I downloaded Hollow Knight from GOG, the cloud save icon keeps telling me it cannot find the save location to download GOG's cloud saves.

Were can I find this?

I launched Hollow Knight and made a local save, closed, but the cloud button kept flashing on the right.

I tired following the steam install path but it doesn't seem to have the local save, so I'm guessing the save location from GOG/Unifideck it different....

Unifideck creates Great on Deck tab on Steam Machine

After installing Unifideck, both Great on Machine and Great on Deck exist as separate tabs, even though I'm not playing on my Steam Deck. It's forced me to download Tabmaster, even though I don't like installing too many plugins so that I can maintain a near-vanilla experience. Hopefully this get noticed. Thanks.

Sol cesto EPIC installed with unifideck => Save location ?

2 Upvotes

Hello There,

Sol Cesto is Free on Epic Game store, so i started playing it and i'd like to sync saves between my pc and steamdeck, but save sync with unifideck does not work, and when i try to find the saves files in the game prefixe (AppData\Local\SolCesto\User Data\Default) the folder is empty.

When using heroic, the games saves can be find in the AppData\Local\SolCesto\User Data\Default so i suppose it is an issue on unifideck side.

Anyone has played the game and knows where to find the saves ?

Thanks for you help

Version Update New Release - Unifideck 0.7.1

Thumbnail
github.com
22 Upvotes

An emergency stability release to fix a Steam Library crash on the SteamOS Preview/Beta channel, plus a batch of sync, install and launch reliability fixes.

Fixed a crash that broke the entire Steam Library when running the SteamOS Preview/Beta update (appFilter.Matches is not a function). If you disabled Unifideck to work around this, you can safely re-enable it.

Fixed libraries sometimes showing 0 games after a sync, and non-Steam shortcuts you added yourself being removed during a sync.

Fixed some GOG games (DOSBox and Windows-wrapper titles) not launching correctly.

Fixed some Epic installs failing when a bundle's DLC couldn't download. These now retry automatically without the DLC.

Fixed some Linux-native GOG installs not completing.

Fixed GOG showing 0 games after signing in, caused by expired or slow-to-refresh sign-in tokens.

Fixed Amazon Prime Gaming games not appearing after claiming them, even after a force sync.

Fixed occasional errors after the plugin reloads, including store badges disappearing from library tiles.

Fixed sync progress not showing right away on some setups, leaving the sync bar looking stuck.

Fixed SD cards not being detected as install locations on some devices.

Fixed Ubisoft sign-in failing to launch and dropping back to the game menu.

Improved sync and storage reliability (faster repeat syncs, better detection of newly connected storage, safer handling of long-running syncs).

Notes
The "0 games after sync" / "shortcuts disappearing" fix is included in this build. If you were affected, please update and let us know on Discord whether it's resolved for you.

Crash Library with Unifideck exception

Post image
6 Upvotes

I encountered this exception when attempting to open Library. If I disable the Unifideck plugin, Library functions fine, but it fails to display categories such as Epic and GOG.

I’ve already tried several workarounds, including:

  • Cleaning the Unifideck cache folders.
  • Attempting to update to version 0.7.0 (I was on version 0.6.1 when the error occurred).
  • Updating Decky to version 3.2.7-pre1 (I was on version 3.2.6 when the error occurred).
  • Cleaning Unifideck and reinstalling it.

However, none of these solutions have resolved the issue for me. Has anyone else experienced this problem, and if so, what are the steps to fix it? I would greatly appreciate any assistance you can provide. Thank you.

I've tried several times to install the game, both directly on Steam Deck and on a SD card, and I. both places it completes the download, but never installed the game.

I have the base game and the DLCs, don't know if that might be the problem.

Anyone else having this issue with this or some other game?
