Fortnite on Steam Deck: Best Quality/Performance settings 60+FPS

[@deabru]

Well, that works. Now I would focus on battery duration.

[@RgbWave]

Hey, the battery lasts around 1,30h to 2h, i made a interesting video on how i attached a 20k mha battery to the steam deck, i recommend you watching!

[@TheDragonScar0]

i need help, i am trying to use the controls on the steam deck on fortnite using SWICD and it will not work, the anti cheat kicks me out. can someone please help me

[@RgbWave]

Thats weird, shouldn’t happen, never got kicked out of a game because of it, prob they updated their security, havent played in a while

[@TheDragonScar0]

Could you try it, and see if it's the same for you? (no pressure)

[@RgbWave]

@@TheDragonScar0 Ofc, when i do it il tell u 👍

[@sammatharu1951]

Swidc works fine for me

[@Uniquename12345a]

Use Steam deck tools much simpler and better

[@cristianjuarez9496]

Are you running Fortnite using Windows. I currently have EPIC games launcher as a non steam game and am able to launch it using steam os.

[@RgbWave]

Hey, yes I'm using windows 11

[@cristianjuarez9496]

@@RgbWave I wonder I used settings I saw on another video and I can run it and join a pregame lobby. But once the game is about to start the whole app closes. I’m wondering if it’s the anti cheat since I’m not using windows.

Did you disable high resolution textures and how do you get it to open when I try to open it it always takes a long time and did you change the vram as well

[@RgbWave]

Hey, the sd card plays a big role in this, you have to have a fast one if you want windows and games to open faster, yes, i did change the vram in the bios, tbh i didnt see a big improvement

Thanks for posting. Will you stil recommend installing windows on SD card ? I heard there will be some lag if it is from SD card. Your thoughts on this?

[@RgbWave]

Hey, depends on the SD card you are getting, I recommend getting a faster and better quality SD card from a reputable brand, but I already played cyberpunk from the SD card and it runs great

[@BigRezla]

@@RgbWavewhat sd card do you use?

[@MohidAbdullah-f1k]

No please dont use sd card for windows its so slow

[@alpha_btw7396]

hi! could you also try performance mode?

[@benjaminalarcon5159]

hello I downloaded Windows 11 on my steam deck and Fortnite I have drops in fps in the lowest graphics can you explain how you did it please

[@RgbWave]

Hey, did u download windows 11 in a Sd card? If yes what kind of sd card you got? You also have to change the vr ram in the bios settings to 4gb, i will make a video showing how to do that, and thats all i did to play fortnite on my steam deck

[@benjaminalarcon5159]

@@RgbWave if I have windows 11 I have the bios in 4gb and I installed the windows in the internal memory and the sd is Samsung 512 gb evo select and I installed Fortnite in the sd and the windows in the internal memory and with that I have drops in fps and I try to see how connect my nintendo switch controller to the steam deck.

[@RgbWave]

@@benjaminalarcon5159 Im not sure what might be wrong, the only difference is that you have windows in the internal storage but that shouldn’t impact the performance in my opinion, i would suggest you to lower the 3d resolution, see if theres any change in fps and lag

[@benjaminalarcon5159]

@@RgbWave ok I will do it and one more question how can I see the frames of the games

[@RgbWave]

@@benjaminalarcon5159 To see the frames you will have to download a app to see the frames, i use this one called msi afterburner with riva tuner, theres many videos showing how to do that and it’s pretty easy

[@antwanminson]

Yeah were you able to fix the screen tearing?

[@thecleanversion]

If you have the fps over 60 it will no matter what have screen tearing on fortnite
