anyone? @Kyle Gospo maybe, you know how that app works?
i just finished porting the ui to steam with the correct scaling
that was something
controllers are still TBD
Should just take in the path to what you want added
?
how do i add artwork
sec
make a .desktop file, add these lines to it
and then point this command to said desktop file
look at this weirdness im dealing with now
oh great its just a shortcut? thats it?
can you point me to the waydroid images to get the sizes?
not quite there yet
Yep, they're in the Bazzite repo
Give me a few
sure sure, so i will package it normally
then someone just needs to run that command
GitHub
bazzite/system_files/desktop/shared/usr/share/applications/Waydroid...
Bazzite is an OCI image that serves as an alternative operating system for the Steam Deck, and a ready-to-game SteamOS-like for desktop computers, living room home theater PCs, and numerous other h...
u want bazzite themed?
variants
how do the hero and logo interract?
logo placed over hero
default is left side
oh yeah they are not the same size
this is the point i reached
0 icons
this is the only result on google, good stuff
Look into steam rom manager, it can inject roms + custom art into steam.
does waydroid look properly on bazzite?
im looking at rom manager seems to use a different way
I manually add waydroid to steam, and manually add artwork afterwards
should be done automatically
@Kyle Gospo no?
🤔 not automatic for me then
add-to-steam is a valve script and is supposed to do it
if they broke it, it just means it'll work later
sadly
i read the script
it just calls steam with a special URI
yeah, and if you check valve
's own nested .desktop file that's where those lines come from
any special requirement for the images? maybe the sizing isnt right
you did a 1-1 on waydroid?
the example waydroid ones are 1:1 with valve's nested pics
should have copied those instead lmao
i used valve's guidelines
how is Valves nested shortcut added?
They use the same add-to-steam func
it's part of steamdeck-kde-presets
no mention of add-to-steam for steamos nested desktop in that repo
is it added by default?
neither on bazzite repo
yes, hold on may have the package wrong
It's there
steamos-add-to-steamalong with the desktop file w/ extra params for steam art
yeah but the command that adds it is not there
the script to add it and the desktop shortcuts and the images are there
but not the command that adds it or how it bootstraps it
oh, that I doin't have
we just used yafti
no idea how they're executing it on first-boot
and your yafti config is where, im going to look at it
we don't do it there anymore either
at this time it's up to the end user
did that because of various issues w/ dbus in nested desktop
easier to not advertise and let advanced users play
hmmmm gonna retry later after one of you verifies that its possible
because steam loads no icons for me when I add the desktop shortcut
