GamingOnLinux: Mecha BREAK is out now on Steam - works on Steam Deck but blocks Desktop Linux
Pretty much as expected, Mecha BREAK is out now and it's Steam Deck Verified but the anti-cheat is a real nuisance.
You're viewing a single thread.
What parameters are they using to block non-SD devices?
The game uses Anti-Cheat Expert which notoriously blocks any device running Linux, other than the Steam Deck LCD (yes, OLED is blocked too)
Based on what?
Wish I knew it
CPU is the speculation
Played the game for an hour or so on a Steam Deck OLED today. Works fine out of the box, didn't make any changes.
What parameters are they using to block non-SD devices?
The easiest one would be to check for the SteamDeck=1 variable.
So if I added that as a launch argument it would work? Is it that simple?
It works on some games and not others.
I heard it works on Marvel Rivals but It didn't work when I tried it on Ironsight, it just kicked me out.
Rivals works on normal Linux desktops without any hacks
I think you missed a joke here.
It's a real parameter.
