DeckSight – DeckSight_r04
DeckSight_r04 is officially live! 🛠️
If you’re looking to squeeze every bit of performance and visual fidelity out of your Steam Deck, this utility suite is a must-have. It’s packed with tools for brightness management via gamma, custom Gamescope scripts for frame limiting, and even HDR workarounds to bring that OLED-style vibrancy to your screen.
What’s New in r04:
- Integrated EDID: The latest BIOS update bakes the Extended EDID directly into the EC Firmware. This is a huge win for system cleanliness—no more extra files floating around!
- Next-Gen Brightness Control: Say goodbye to `brightness-wrangler` and old Decky plugins. The installer now features `decksight-brightnessctrlv3`, which takes direct control of hardware brightness for much smoother transitions. 💡
- Smarter Installation: The new `install.sh` script is much more efficient, automatically detecting and scrubbing obsolete components to prevent system bloat.
Important Notes for the Tinkerer:
- Refresh Rate Info: The 80hz DTD has been removed from the firmware itself. If you want that sweet 80hz smoothness, just use the included Lua script in Gamescope!
- Compatibility: This update is confirmed working perfectly on Bazzite and should play nice with most other Linux distributions.
- System Cleanup: To prevent any messy conflicts, the external EDID files and specific Gamescope environment variables have been removed from this release.
Time to polish up that display! 🎮
