Steam Deck - Global Controller Layout:

We have done some changes based on community feedback

Layout Changes: - Select is now a hotkey trigger while pressing it down, L4 and R4 are still triggers as well. - The RetroArch combo of Select + Start = Quit now works on many SA-Emulators. - Open Menu is removed from Select. - R5 = A button (this allows for great Wii controls on the right touchpad and pressing down the R5 for A). - L5 = B button.

Global hotkey changes: - Open Menu is on Y. - Increase Emulation Speed is on Dpad-UP. - Decrease Emulation Speed is on Dpad-Down. - Fullscreen OFF command is removed (as emulators have migrated to toggle).

Known issues

  • The built in auto-updater is not working (we are working on it). Discover is ok.
  • Some emulators don't have hotkey support or have bugs affecting their hotkeys.
