Note: This update is for the Steam Deck Beta and Preview channels, and includes new features that are still being tested. You can opt into this in Settings > System > System Update Channel.
The Steam Client Beta has been updated with the following changes:
General- Fixed an issue with art for some games not properly updating. A client restart may be required for some art changes to fully appear.
- Fixed some DLC art displaying in the wrong language.
- Fixed progress feedback for the Eject button in Settings->Storage disappearing as soon as the button is pressed.
- Fixed labels for external drives not being editable during a format operation.
Steam Input- Added "World Space" Experimental Gyro Conversion Mode. This modes feels similar to using a laser pointer. It monitors rotation about the gravity axis to determine both horizontal and vertical output. Some may prefer "Player Space" which is a hybrid of world yaw and local pitch.
- Fix for "Player Space" Gyro Conversion Mode. Gravity axis is now reliable.
- "Pixels Per 360°" Setting value is now copied within the current Action Set rather than across the entire steam input config. This is an accommodation for games with different turning rates in different gameplay states (i.e. Vehicle Mode vs On Foot mode may have a different camera turn rate).
- Partial Regression fix for older Gyro "As Joystick" modes, but there are still known issues. Renovation is planned.
