FlightGear on Steam Deck

Postby wlbragg » Sat Jul 23, 2022 5:16 pm

I just installed FlightGear (FlatPAK) on my son's Steam Deck. Super simple to install. Add it also as a non steam game to get the overlay capability to map controls easy, It works great. I'll try to post some video later.

Nice.
Is it possible to set the rendering settings higher than default?

Edit:

Thinking about it:
Since the hardware is always the same it would be possible to create a dedicated Video configuration file just for the Steam Deck.
