CheatDeck Plugin for Decky Loader Steam Deck is GAME CHANGING! Not WeMod Trainer

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Shout out to "Rhythm" on my Discord who notified me about this plugin. Sorry I forgot to mention you in the video!

[@cyber_robot889]

To be honest I'm glad that we have Fling and Cheat Engine more and more games replace fun and quality with grind and boring things - sometimes it feels like I'm not gaming, but got the second or third job....

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

yes, get less and less time to play video games when you grow older. don't want to waste that game time grinding. thanks for the comment!

[@artgutierrez3001]

Very nice… thats why i love the steam deck its open source and u have tons of options with the community support.. thank u for always keeping us up to date.

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

You're welcome 🤗 Thanks for supporting!

[@nnnmmm1987]

Would be great if the plug-in could link to a repository of trainers tested and verified to work by the SD community🙌

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

That would be great 👍

[@DarkMasamune09]

flingtrainers are all tested and verified, you'll have to download it one by one for each game though. I've been using it for years.

[@bossedup957]

That would be so much better cause some of these trainers can be a virus. So I'm not even doing it

Beyond the Ghost Cursor! (See last comment) Keyboard+Mouse/Trackpad Effect: Previously, to be able to toggle between game & trainer required taking it out of full screen mode in options but...some games still take the focus away from other windows (trainer page) or specifically the controls, the deck trackpad cursor. So you will require a keyboard & mouse cause (it's good to have one anyway for other gaming uses & typing etc) this is an external control which will allow your cursor to work again for this type of dilemma. Note: To those unsavvy in tech like myself, you will ideally want a full keys keyboard (that has num lock etc so the keys will also work the toggle on off functions during play), True wireless bluetooth (Not a USB plug in to allow it to work) like a Zedo Foldable from Amazon(does not have full keys but does have a combined trackpad which will do what you need), and a mouse/trackpad. & That is how you deal with this second issue I encountered. Hope this helps... Oh, there are 2 other things you might find troublesome, but I will write their resolution in a new comment....

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Thanks for sharing

[@katanamaru1]

This was much easier than your other methods. Gonna try this.

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

It's easy to setup but hard when you try to find the stand-alone trainers that actually work on the internet.

[@L.Therianthrope]

I hope what I'm about to share helps everyone who has encountered the issue that I did. The Ghost Cursor! (Unable to toggle!) First off, this tutorial is really good & easy to do even if you are not tech savvy. (I'm a bit of a luddite & I managed), but... After following up to 8:27, you discover you cannot toggle the trainer! You press every button, you switch between windows of game & trainer but no dice, you fear you are missing something, an unmentioned program perhaps like this proton thingy? However I spoke too a steam user face to face who looked at the system for a moment, switched between desktop & console & showed me the simple solution! The issue is focus! The game is running on full screen so it ignores the trainer! You load the game, go into main menu option & turn off full screen mode. You may have to shut down game & reload to get it to take effect but now the Cursor is there or you can just toggle what you want with your finger 👉 I am pleased that I can just play games now as & how I would like to! Now if I could just figure out how to use the emulation thing (games run like in slow motion).... Thanks to creator of video & hope what I shared is useful to someone?

tried 3 games. 1) Cyberpunk. The trainer resizing and flashing. Didnt work to choose any cheats. 2) RE4 remake. Trainer didnt show up at all. Tried 30+ trainer instead.

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

for elden ring, someone said on my discord to use "Elden.Ring.v1.02-v1.08.Plus.34.Trainer-FLiNG" this version. for other games i haven't tried so can't really give you advice. stand alone trainers are a hit or miss. that's why i use wemod but it's a pain to get working on the steam deck. once you have wemod installed, you won't use these stand alone trainers.

For about 2 weeks I couldn’t figure out why I couldn’t switch windows. It only showed the trainer screen and not the game but all I had to do was turn on developer mode. Thanks you so much

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Glad it helped! Thanks for the comment!

[@L.Therianthrope]

The Dark Window! Solution: Desktop Gaming Mode Screen Switching to use trainer. You possess a new game, click play &...?...Nothingness? (Example Aliens Fire) The window is there, but there is no title screen meaning no play. This is apparently a graphics card thing requiring an update & if you go to console settings, there is a check for updates button which is supposed to solve the problem. Except it's already done, so what now? Switch to Desktop Mode! I don't know the why, but the game plays fine & as it should be here, but...Now comes the faffy part & this took me a while to figure out. To use the trainer this time you first make sure Developer Mode is on because it might not be on in the desktop side. Ammendment : Just worked out to click desktop steam icon, then press STEAM button to open play library to full screen so game art is a top & once you select the game you want to play from this window it cuts out some of the hassle. You may still need to - go into the game options & select the windowed mode (taking it out of full screen temporary) As you are now in Gaming Mode , but you are in Desktop. This means when you press STEAM button again you can now select the trainer by clicking it with finger on the taskbar it is selected. Press STEAM again to be able to toggle what you want on or off. Return to game is STEAM, task bar game, STEAM & play. (Full/bigger screen in options again if you want). I know this method seems a lot as a process but you get use to it & once in play the fun begins. I believe this works should you encounter other games that do this. Hope this helps!

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

I didn't read all that but thanks for sharing 👍

[@koen-mj8]

I'm extremely mixed on this, from the point of view where + adaptable cheats being used for older games but acting more as quick settings instead of cheats - proactively being pro-cheats may encourage naughty behavior - why for new games, like... + ease of use, and perhaps potential update to add an on the fly mod enable/disable option I can see several upsides but also downsides. It's cool. In concept, with work it could become much much more of a useful tool.

Guys i found a way to use cheat for lutris, you simply create a bat file and include (start trainer.exe and start your game.exe) and launch it on lutris, that way when you play it on game mode it will automatically run 2 windows one for the cheat and one for the game. Cheat deck only works on steam game not for lutris

So I got the cheat deck to work on my steam deck. Im trying it on fallout 4 for example. It opens both the trainer and the game. However I can’t really activate the cheats. Am I doing something wrong? I use the touch pad on the steam deck to move the cursor onto the toggles but I can’t click the toggles to activate them. Nothing I do activates the toggles. Is there a way to activate the toggles natively on the steam deck or do you NEED to use a mouse/keyboard externally to activate any of the toggles on trainers?

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

@@SuperVegetaAF try holding steam button and use right touchpad as mouse and R2 as left mouse click.

[@SuperVegetaAF]

@GrownUpGamingGUG thanks so much for the response! I’ll try it right now. Side question. In your videos where you show “examples” of trainers. Are you using the steam deck solely to activate everything or are you using anything externally?

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Yes the trainers have slide toggles and I can use the steam deck controller to control that. If the trainer only has numpad toggles then I avoid them. Wemod is better as it's unified UI for all trainers.

[@SuperVegetaAF]

@GrownUpGamingGUG ahh yes I love wemod, I use it a lot on my laptop! I think I tried to follow a guide to get it to work properly on the steam deck but to no avail. I would always run into errors and it would just force me to hit retry and never continued past the retry screen so I’ve been trying standalone trainers. Your video on it was simple and straight forward, easy to follow. I did try your wemod tutorial for the steam deck but sadly I couldent get it going properly.

[@SuperVegetaAF]

@GrownUpGamingGUG thanks for the help! It worked great. I was worried I’d have to dock my steam deck and plug in a mouse to get it going lol. I was like at that point of me actually docking my steam deck I might as well play it on my laptop with wemod but this is so much more convenient!

@@jase276 could be the trainer not support the game version you're using.

@@GrownUpGamingGUG I was too hasty, I found out the problem. Some trainers require you to use a certain Proton version in order to have the proper Frameworks and Runtimes. Linux, what a headache. For my case, I needed to have the game in Proton version 7-6. Thanks for the video/tutorial, I can finally stop using Steam Tinker Launch!

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Glad you got it 😄

[@patrickbrandenburg9207]

Thanks for your tutorial. But I have a question. What can I do if a trainer cannot be activated with touch but only with the F keys or the NUMpad, which the SteamDeck doesn't have? That's the case with the FLINGS trainer for The Evil Within 2, for example. I can only activate it with the NUMpad. Is there a solution for this?😊

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

@@patrickbrandenburg9207 yes that happens for stand alone trainers, there's no standard. I also hate it when they don't have slide bar toggles. Maybe try mapping back grip button to numpad key.

[@firemouz73]

Does this only work with original steam games? I tried this with an game which i installed on lutris (and i am starting with steam), there the trainer does not start - just the game. I tried different games. On my original steam games it works. Any ideas why this only works with steam games and not with lutris games?

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Try this for lutris or heroic games launcher kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJ7RYpd3ad5jgKs

Is there a way to have certain cheats auto save/turn on that you toggle ? it doesn't seem to remember that after game exit .

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

That function is available with WeMod but I don't think stand alone trainers have that.

@@GrownUpGamingGUG Does Wemod require active internet to activate the cheat or can they be used/saved offline?

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

@@ckelley32873I think you need to run the cheat once before you can use offline. I'm not really sure as I'm always online 😂

@@GrownUpGamingGUG Great thanks. I had another from cheathappens but If I wanted to activate on a game while on a plane or such withour internet it wouldn't let you as the plugin has to login each time a new game is launched

[@AltairHalim]

Got it working untill the game launched. When i switched to the trainer, the mouse cursor won't move. I tried touching the toggles but its not responding. It's like the trainer is displayed in front but the cursor & trackpad still responding to the game in the back

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Try holding the steam button and use the right touchpad as mouse and R2 as left mouse click.

[@MateusRDMelo]

hello friend. the Trainer does not work on the Steam deck in the game Dying Light 2, It works on PC. Would you know why? All my other games work but not on Steam Deck

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Are you using cheatdeck with other mods? Cheatdeck will insert its own launch options and maybe that messed things up?

[@GamingPalOllieMK]

I installed Decky, installed the cheat thing and linked it to the Fling trainer for Hollow Knight. Perhaps you're missing something, do I need to do something so the trainer runs? It is linked the same way as yours but even with developer mode enabled I don't see an option to Switch windows, now what? The game just runs as normal, I don't know if the trainer is running in the background or not since there is no option to switch windows.

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

As said in the video, not all trainers you download online works, it could be the trainer itself, it could be the trainer does not support the version of your game, it could be the trainer is fake. Try other trainers if it doesn't work. They are free to download.

[@GamingPalOllieMK]

@@GrownUpGamingGUG Thanks, strangely enough an older verison of the Hollow Knight trainer worked and the cheats work just fine, the one from 2021 works great. This is definitely odd

Hi! I have a video recommendation! A lot of us get free Epic games, and a few of the ones we just got for free won’t run on SD. Would you help us making them run? Those are: Ghostrunner, Ghostwire Tokyo, DNF Duel, Outer worlds (no videos), Escape Academy. Please help us!

this is simple but does have it's cons. you have to download your trainers yourself and they may not work or the format isn't consistent. sometimes they don't have slide bars. wemod is hard to install, but once it's installed, it's much easier to use.

How to use numpad to enable cheats? I press steam + x to bring up the virtual keyboard but for numpad 1 if i press 1 it doesnt work.

Some stand alone trainers only have numpad which I avoid. Try to get trainers with slide bar toggle.

[@jobas]

Thanks for this video, this is currently what I am looking for. Also, tried this and not sure if the trainer from fling is not working, but if I do not see the trainer when I hit the steam button even thou I enabled the Dev Mode, that means the trainer is not working right?

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

yes, it's probably the trainer issue itself. download another one. some trainers online are sketchy.
