NonSteamLaunchers v4.1.8

on GitHub

Waydroid and NVIDIA

I haven't made any adjustments to the launcher errors yet so bear with me!

Desktop Version 🖥

• GUI Improvements: Reworked the main window to include the Website Shortcut Creator inside the window via GTK. No more pop-ups asking if you want to include a website—you can now do it all at once!
• Improved Note System: Better analysis of the note system. I was able to see the notes from the launchers this week—gg guys, it was working great.
• Waydroid Scanner: Waydroid is now supported The scanner still needs work, but it's mostly based on the script by @ryanrudolfoba for the Steam Deck. I’ll continue improving this scanner in the future.
• NVIDIA GeForce NOW: Added the native Linux version of NVIDIA GeForce NOW. This is now located in the top launcher list at the bottom section (launchers are now separated in the main window into Launchers and Chrome-Based Choices).
• Attempted a battle.net Scanner fix for more games: not sure if they are all being picked up now or not still need make sure as i dont have some of the games.

Decky Plugin Version 🔌

Everything above has been applied to the Decky Plugin as well!

• Fixed Decky installation error via WebSocket: Some launchers also aren’t installing on other distros at the moment—please bear with me while I work on a fix. This issue is not present on SteamOS, just FYI.

Notes 📝

• There are now two .desktop files:
  • Desktop Version: NonSteamLaunchers.desktop (includes the option to install the latest version of the NSL Decky Loader PLugin").
  • Plugin Version: NSLPlugin.desktop (if you already have Decky Loader installed and want to install/update and dont want to use Desktop Mode.).

-Plugin Files:

• On Linux: Use the "NSLPlugin.Desktop" file to install the plugin if you have Decky Loader installed already.

• On Windows: Run the "NSLPluginWindows.exe" first, then run No_console.exe or Plugin Loader.exe

Windows Installation Steps:

1. Sign in to GitHub and go to this link.

2. Choose the latest link (or whichever version works for you).

3. Scroll down to "Artifacts" and download "PluginLoader Win". This is a zip file that you need to extract on your Windows machine. Make sure you're signed in to see the download link.

4. Download NSLPluginWindows.exe from here.

5. Run NSLPluginWindows.exe first. This will also create the necessary cef debugging file for Decky Loader.

6. Run either No_console.exe or Plugin Loader.exe, depending on your preference.

7. Go into Game Mode or Big Picture Mode to see the Decky Loader plugin and NonSteamLaunchers.

This setup will automatically add all your non-Steam games with artwork, correctly formatted for Windows. Only scanning will work; nothing else will function, so you can either auto-scan or manually scan your games.
