Since the latency of Gamescope’s FPS limiter still seems to be a problem, and we’re still doing a pretty slapdash thing of using MangoHUD’s limiter instead, I went ahead and made a script that makes it just a little cleaner.
After you save it and update your PATH variable as documented there, you can just use mangolimiter [-f FPS] %command% as the launch command.
So FYI, the path addition did not work. The folder environments.d wasn’t there, and even after I created, nothing happened, it did not recognize it.
So I ended up adding the following line to .bashrc directly. Also, “mangolimiter” is quite long to type in Deck’s screen, so I’ve shorten to “fps”. I’ll remove the -f parameter, probably, so in the end is going to be just “fps 40 %command%” , but thanks for it
If you created the folder environments.d, then you did it wrong; that directory doesn’t have an s in it. It’s $HOME/.config/environment.d. That will be why it didn’t work. Also, you likely have to at least restart Steam after making a change there, because those configuration files are read at session start.
Did i set it up wrong? my game keeps crashing when I try it. I made a mangolimiter folder inside bin, but was that just supposed to be the file itself? also its saved as a .sav that wouldn’t let me execute it no matter what, so I just did the chmod command
