NonSteamLaunchers v4.2.5

on GitHub

Discord and Xbox Update

Desktop Version 🖥

• Patching Proton for Discord: created a patch to allow for Discord to be used in Game Mode. All you need to do is hit the "Update Proton GE" button and NonSteamLaunchers will apply the patch for the current proton GE. This will allow Discord (Native Linux) to be able to be used in Game Mode, so you can finally stream the video and audio and capture your game to your friends. This will automatically work for all of your NSL Games.

-Chrome Shortcuts: Many fixes towards the Chrome Shortcut code to allow for different regions, i didnt know that was an issue at first but now things should be alot better for any bookmarks in chrome for Amazon Luna, GeForce Now and Xbox Game Pass.

-Many fixes towards the EA App , Ubsioft Connect and GOG Galaxy Scanners: been slowly applying fixes for alot more games, for example some games that were part of a bundle for Ubisoft Games. etc.

-Decky Plugin has been fixed: Please run the NSLPlugin.desktop if you have an old version. Also added a suprise. See below for a new Scanner exclusively for the Decky Plugin :)

Decky Plugin Version 🔌

• Decky Plugin has now been fixed and should be working again.
• All updates from desktop version has been applied.
• Added Native Microsoft Windows and Xbox Games to the NSLGame Scanner for the Decky Plugin: you should now be able to find your Microsoft Windows Games using the Scanner now if you are on the Windows Platform using the plugin. The Scanner is a bit rough, so some more work will defintely need to be done. But for the games that i have it was able to find them and launch them through Steam. Happy Gaming <3

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.
