God of War Ragnarok Steam Deck DLSS Enabler

[@DarthAndre24]

Watched your Syncthing tutorial and it worked with GoW. Thank you! Game still has random freezes in between cutscenes but it runs fine 70% of the time.

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Glad I could help! 😃

[@daddykarlmarx6183]

Dude you're like the only person I've seen even acknowledge that probably, cuteness freeze HARD, particularly the bear fight early on, everyone keeps saying this game "runs perfectly on steam deck" but I currently don't think it's even really playable until I can fix that

[@robinricote5375]

downloading it right now . cant wait to play it ☺️☺️☺️

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Enjoy 😊

[@aymanalqroos9116]

The game worked fine for me first day of launch. I'm on steam os stable with default proton... I see most people say it's great on steam deck. This is the first channel saying there are problems... 😮

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Thanks for watching 👍

[@Secre33]

I'll try this just downloaded the game and see your tutorial how to run thank you

Could you do a vid/research on Anti-Stutter - High CPU and Disk Priority - GoW Ragnarok mod

@@daddykarlmarx6183 those mods that write stuff on regedit are for windows and I don't think it will do anything on steam deck steamOS. At least I don't feel any difference after doing it.

Hey man? Any update on this? I’d like to see a new video about on a new stable mod for god of war rag to get it to run at 60fps stable any suggestions?

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Can you make a tutorial for gta v map editor on steam deck

[@alexpalmiter2175]

Put it in windowed mode if possible. The dlss mod won't work properly in borderless.

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Yes I tried, same thing 😅

[@alexpalmiter2175]

It was worth a shot! I know Black Myth Wukong worked after switching to windowed and restarting the game.

[@kavishgour3267]

I'm a little bit confused about the update process. Currently Ragnarok has v1.1.1 and v1.2 updates. There's two options to update I guess, download the elamigos update and choose the game folder during installation or download the portable torrent version then choose the location of the already downloaded game to rehash. Which one did you go for on the deck ? Thanks man.

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

I got the clean 1.1.1 exe and unpacked it like this video and moved all the update files to the game folder.

[@charlesokwuanga2423]

Hey man? are you running this game on a normal steamdeck or the Oled?

So I was wondering my cheat deck was gone from my steam deck..and it turns out that it's gone? I've tried searching for it on decky loader and it cannot be found... only memory deck shows up when I type cheat. What other cheat application can we use now that cheat deck is gone?

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Go to decky loader settings and store channel set to testing and you should see cheatdeck back in the store.
