SamXavia , 11 months ago in How big is your guys' wishlists?

Are you trying to wishlist the whole platform, I'm at just over 300 but that's really pushing the wishlist (It would be larger if they had things like Movies that you could purchase on the platform)

AdmiralShat , 11 months ago in New Steam Deck just passed through the FCC — but is this Steam Deck 2? | (Spoiler No)

Is it possibly their rumored standalone/wireless VR headset?

I just bought a Quest 3, but I’d sell it and go for whatever VR headset valve comes out with next, as long as it’s not $1000 like the Index.

DNU , 11 months ago in Easily Access Browser In Big Picture?

also through the overlay? There is an integrated browser.

etchinghillside OP , 11 months ago

Where?

DNU , 11 months ago

If the overlay is activated in the Steam options, press shift + tab in any steam game and then click the Browser symbol in the bar .

etchinghillside OP , 11 months ago

Could you do me a favor and confirm this is visible for you when you’re in Big Picture mode?

I can see settings in Steam under Display where I enable the overlay, can set things like default browser page and reorder “Web Browser”.

But I don’t see it visible when I open the overlay.

DNU , 11 months ago

Ok, sorry for the misinformation. In the beta there actually was a Browser available but since then it has been removed and there are currently no ways to reenable it.

xionzui , 11 months ago in Latest Steam hardware survey, resolution results seem off?

The 60/20 of two 1080p and two 1440p seems right, but how is there another 50% of “other”?

jaycifer , 11 months ago

Probably can’t resolve monitors with distinct resolutions into one large one. How would a 2160p and a 1440p setup be displayed in this list?

xionzui , 11 months ago

That makes sense, but if 50% of setups are that way, shouldn’t the rest also only add up to 50%? There’s around 150% listed here

JohnEdwa , 11 months ago

Probably based on what the actual monitor resolutions are and not just the raw multi monitor result as you can create an almost endless variation of those when you start matching the resolution position based on the physical location of the monitors.
E.g in a setup like this even if both would be 1920x1080, you'd end up with something random like 3840 x 1428.

OsrsNeedsF2P , 11 months ago in Latest Steam hardware survey, resolution results seem off?

The results are perpetually botched

snooggums , 11 months ago

Copied from another comment (not sure how to link)

Top left: multi monitor resolution These numbers exclude single monitor setups.

Dirk OP , 11 months ago in Flatpak Steam crashes on startup

Hey @DeeBeeDouble remember the Steam issue you helped me with some time ago? I just felt I’ll let you know 🙂

Here’s fun little update on this …

No relevant software was changed, but with the latest system update the Steam Flatpak runs all the udpates as it did before, but now this is logged (all the update and initial installation/setup stuff was done at this point):

During this log output this message pops up at some point:

https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/74b62a22-3a2f-442a-8fe3-046bbe9612f3.png

But no matter what I select except Restart steamwebhelper the Flatpak quits and nothing more happens. When Restart steamwebhelper is selected sometimes the steam UI shows up but I cannot select anything from any dropdowns and cannot change most of the settings sliders. But most of the time this is logged and nothing happens:

So we’re a bit further with this now. I now get an error message most of the time and occasionally can see the steam UI with partial access 🤣

So, who knows … maybe 2-3 more months and I can use Steam again like before …

Don’t buy this shit!

hal_5700X OP , 1 year ago

Why?

NOOBMASTER , 1 year ago

Original is still good enough to play.

Panties , 1 year ago in How big is your guys' wishlists?

Somewhere between 60-100, and it’s only this small because my main gaming platforms are PS4 and Nintendo switch.

fckreddit , 1 year ago in Which upcomming indie game you have high hopes for ?

Mineko’s Night Market.

MrGerrit , 1 year ago in recover account-name

If you haven’t tried yet: paste your steamid on here steamdb.info/calculator/

Maybe it shows your account name.

Edit:

Also: if you by any chance redeemed a game by using a old cdkey and you still have it you could try the account recovering system.

I got my hacked account back this way.

harald_im_netz OP , 1 year ago

MVP for reacting on this old thread.

I tried the calculator to no appeal. Sadly, as I’ve moved eight times (no exaggeration) since I’ve last used the account, I’ve thrown out all cds :-(

MrGerrit , 1 year ago

Damn, it’s going to be tough.

Have you tried www.steamidfinder.com ? I don’t think it would give more information than the calculator, but you can try.

What if you try adding the saving as a new friend? Maybe it will give some more information?

nyakojiru , 1 year ago in How do you organize your Steam library?

Not doing it

CaptainBasculin , 1 year ago in New Steam Link update with 4K and Sensor Fusion Backbone support

I do use it with my phobe, however I never had the need to use it via 4K.

fschaupp , 1 year ago in How do you organize your Steam library?

I put it in respective collections:

• ToDo
• Completed
• Gold & Completed
• Sim
• Casual
• Local Multiplayer …

TableCoffee , 1 year ago in How do you organize your Steam library?

I organize by game release year. Not when it was released on steam or even PC but whenever that game was initially released on any platform. From 1997 to 2023.
