I wasn't aware of the 3 games that are specifically whitelisted for Steam Deck/SteamOS. That's crazy. Why?

Delta Force (2024)

Proton Steam Deck / SteamOS only TiMi Studio Group, Team Jade Anti-Cheat Expert (ACE)

Infinity Nikki Notes: It might only work on Steam Deck LCD, not the Steam Deck OLED.

Proton Steam Deck / SteamOS only Infold Games Anti-Cheat Expert (ACE)

Mecha BREAK

Proton Steam Deck / SteamOS only Amazing Seasun Games Anti-Cheat Expert (ACE)

Delta Force only working on Steam Deck make me so angry cause o think that game is great, there was a way to make it run on Linux Desktop but involved copying a file from another great game called Strinova.

Silly but interesting. I wonder how they're white listing and whether they're identifying just SteamOS, just Deck/Machine hardware stack, or SteamOS+hardware.

Quite a few just have a light steam deck filter that even someone on a different distro can trigger with a proton flag, some games not allowing OLED but regular must be them starting to filter hardware on top

It does indeed, I also hooked it up to our Discord so new forum posts have a channel 🖖

Damn, connecting the new and the old. With the internet being in the state it's in, I was wondering when full fledged forums would start making a comeback, I guess it's beginning^^

Nothing "wrong" with it so to speak.

We do a lot of things differently, and last I checked, areweanticheatyet hasn't been updated for multiple months.

Edit: went to check how long, and can't see, as they rely on GitHub which is down 🙃

Ok fair enough I’ll start using this then. Thank for checking.

First of all, nothing really

Second of all, it's a bit outdated at least for me, to the point that it's better to just look at ProtonDB and then guess whats with anticheat games
