So recently, for reasons unknown to me, the old trick of

 WINEDLLOVERRIDES="steam_api64=n,b" %command%

has not been working, at least with SteamOS 3.5 on the Steam Deck.

So here is the fix if you've been having the problem of "SteamAPI_Init() failed" in your logs, particularly when using something like the Goldberg emulator that relies on implementing a replacement for steam_api64.dll. This should work for other cracks like TENOKE's which use the same method.

1.Navigate to the folder of the Proton version that you want to use for the game (it defaults here on the Steam Deck):

 /home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/(THE PROTON VERSION THAT YOU USE)/user_settings.sample.py

2.Rename that file to:

 user_settings.py

3.Within that file, erase everything and add one single line:

 user_settings = {"WINEDLLOVERRIDES": "steam_api64=n,b"}

4.Save the file and check to see if your games are working through Steam.

I don't know why this works over WINEDLLOVERRIDES in the launch options - it really shouldn't. But I've found that it does.

Let me know your experience.

Pretty cool look at the newer systems all compared. Would love to get ahold of the Air 1S, but it's unfortunately really expensive compared to full sized systems.

Just saw that Gary is back home and thought some people might support him after the work he's done for the Switch scene.

On the website, in both Chrome and Edge, I cannot remove posts. The "more" option (the ellipsis) does nothing at all. It's not functional. Clicking it does not work at all, in either browser. This means that mod tools are not accessible.

Just saw this video for the first time on a random channel that uploads some old RnB content - it's incredible! I had no idea Patty could sing in that style. It's almost like Dolly a little bit.
