I modelled and printed a custom mount for my portable monitor and attached it to my steam deck for big screen Minecraft on the couch, it's suprisingly comfortable to hold
So basically a laptop, except you can disconnect the large screen.
And instead of a keyboard you have controller controls. Also there's a 2nd touchpad.
I use my deck all the time to manage my server and do normal desktop things on it, I only go to the server if the thing I have to type is longer than a sentence haha
Steam input is amazing. Macros, macros everywhere!!
Noice
Me: I love my Steam Deck, but I wish it were lighter.
OP:
Looks like he doesn't mind the workout required just to keep the thing facing the right way.
looks portable and comfortable to use. 🫶
Holy shit. Now thats a gaming setup. Imagine pulling that thing out just casualty gaming on the tube or in a plane lol.
I'm sure the people next to you on the plane will be thrilled.
I'd definitely love it. It's no wider than the person in the seat and it would give me something to watch
Imagine pulling that thing out just casualty
I don't have to imagine it anymore XD
Looks like the monitor needs power based on the 2 cords I see. I'm not sure if the outlets the airplane has is enough for it, but maybe? I barely fly, and I don't even remember if they offer charge ports?
Edit: maybe buy one of those crazy large power bricks to bring with you! I got one years ago to use when camping. It's got usb c and 3 other usb ports and it's 60,000mah. It powered my MacBook pro all day, it's a beast and great to have just in case of power outages as well.
Heck yeah, nothing a 3d printer can't solve to make it a all in one.. Edit: the monitor is connected to power and then I just plug the deck into the monitor, so only 1 cable leaving the abomination 2.0
The only thing I would change is to have it on a separate stand connected with a wireless pen. Maybe is just me, but the whole set seems tiring to hold for long gaming sessions.
My wrist hurts just looking at this
What is the monitor model and brand?
It's Aldi's house brand here in Australia "bauhn" basically just a generic monitor
Ah okay, thanks.
Holy moly the chad grip
Impressive! That looks heavy though; remember to be kind to your hands if you're playing for a while
As if the Deck wasn't already heavy enough.
Stay tuned for when I print a holder for the 60000mah battery someone mentioned in the comments before haha
Fellow technical player spotted
XD tis why I love it... What gave it away?
Haha, for me it was the use of miniHUD and what looks to be bulk item storage(?)
Haha yeah I've been working on it for a couple days now and my partner decided to take the pic at the worst possible time, scaffolding everywhere XD, I use basically all the mods scicraft uses, they should be a vanilla feature
You know what would be cool? A mod that turns the second display into that 3ds Like inventory menu
I recommend looking up what people have done with raspberry pi screens essentially giving the deck a second screen that is far more practical than my setup here haha
Since you don't mind trading how you look for functionality, might I recommend: XREAL Air 2 Pro AR Glasses https://a.co/d/cbebx2I (or similar). As long as you're just sitting around, and not on a plane or anything, these are awesome. If the long haul flights is your use case, you'd want the accelerometer addon thing so you can anchor it in space better.
I have considered ar glasses for it, high tech lo life on YouTube got me interested
What Minecraft version do you run on the deck?
1.21, I only updated to that version a couple weeks ago, it was 1.19 for ages before that, I only update if there is something that is worth it for me
YOOOO what's the montor size?? I've got a 14 inch 15:10 from AliExpress and this would be the coolest shit to print out! If you could, could you share the file to it?
It's 16 inches unfortunately, I used tinkercad to mock this up in about 3 hours with some calipers and a model from thingiverse to clip to the back of the deck, one thing I printed after this picture is a clip that goes over the decks screen to stop this abomination from unclipping from the weight
ahh unlucky, well anyways I'll post back in a couple of weeks with my rendition. Finally i get to play DS games yippee
