Definitely seems like some tinkering is required, but seems like a one time procedure.
I guess the alternative would be to run a console version via emulator
I do hope Valve implement a Community patch system for Proton so these Steam Deck specific tweaks can be easily applied with a few button presses.
this is exactly what Proton-GE does.
That’s what protonfixes does however the handful of fixes they have vs the number in comments on ProtonDB leaves a lot to be desired. As I said, it would be great if Valve did this, a la Workshop, so fixes could be voted and applied in Steam rather than flipping to a different build of Proton and a system where fixes are invisible and limited.
The closest thing we have is the proton issues page where such things can be tested by the community and if a fix is found it will be made available in the next experimental version for everyone by default. The problem with a community patch system is that the issues that most games experience that have issues are deeper than just new launch options or the like. It would require a code change, and this would mean downloading a new version of proton for every game you have a community patch for, which will fill up a lot of space quickly. The ones that do just require a launch option or the like this would be useful for though, it’s just that proton is so good these days there aren’t all that many games that can be fixed so simply, else they likely would have been fixed by default.
I appreciate the insight; thanks for sharing!
Yes, I was wondering if all the tinkering is still required after 1 year. Didn't Ubisoft updated/fixed the Steam version of the game since then? 🫤
I just installed it and gave it a test run; can confirm tinkering is still required. Without it, the audio language is French and the game only shows up in a small square and doesn't use the full screen. The game settings (which presumably fixes this) also doesn't work
Would not recommend without tinkering
thank you
I doubt UbiSoft remembers it even exists 😂
The GOG version doesn't come with widescreen and controller support. I had to install a custom widescreen patch for the game and use AntiMicroX to enable controller support.
The fact that a 20th Anniversary Edition of BG&E exists leaked today, so you might want to wait for that to be a thing.
