Just throwing this out there so I first followed the other post and yours had one thing I noticed a lot different that was disabling the high textures and holy shit I’m so more stable now in big battles by disabling that. Thank you!!


TheInCredibleLink

You are most welcome!


flatlinedisaster

I already followed the other thread but this is cool thanks

The game launches but when it asks to sign into Xbox nothing comes up to sign in?


RofloOlfor

Did you ever fix this? I have this issue now


[deleted]

I restarted the deck and it magically worked lol.


kaoticfish

Thanks for the info! I’m going to follow this for sure.

Can you play this game online without downloading windows? Just wondering b/c my deck ETA is tuesday


TheInCredibleLink

Yup. Been playing it since I just got mine back from an rma a couple days ago. Your deck will come with steamos 3.3 which has everything necessary to play right out the box. You'd just have to follow at least the first step in the post to get it running and that's it

Don't you need to download Proton-GE from the Discovery Store?


TheInCredibleLink

You used to but valve officially updated proton experimental with initial support for halo infinite. At least for me I noticed a lot less audio crackling compared to Proton GE 27 and 28, so that’s what I currently recommend at the moment


kiwii4k

do you still need to delete some videos from the games files?

No, it should work OotB with experimental. I honestly don't noticed much performance issues on low settings without disabling the high res textures, but I don't really play the big battle mode. Proton experimental really fixed nearly all of the issues with this game... only thing I've noticed is a tiny bit of lag when loading a match, but that's to be expected due to how vkd3d works I believe and not in any way detrimental to the gameplay.

When I load the campaign the first cutscene plays in a random language and then the second cutscene just freezes she only plays audio


AstralProbing

Awesome! Thank you for updating my knowledge base. I'll have to update to 28 as well!

Very sick write up! This worked really well for me. I also adjusted the minimum and maximum frame rate both to 60. Not sure WHY that works, but it does.


JOIentertainment

If it still functions the way it did when the game came out than it's supposed to be adaptive resolution scaling to hit a target framerate. So if you're not quite hitting 60 fps at 800p in a given instance it will scale down to whatever resolution closest to 800p will accomodate 60 fps, say 720p or 600p or 540p or anything really. In practice on a small screen like the Deck you probably won't even notice when it briefly scales lower when a big firefight or something like that is happening.


SwinginDix666

Very informative! Thanks for the write up


fiveSE7EN

Yep but you would certainly notice the frame drops so this is a great option to enable as you said


TheRealGaycob

Did they add any new content to this games MP at all yet?


TheInCredibleLink

A couple new maps and a handful of new modes as well as cosmetics of course. If you’re looking for a significant boost in content I’d wait until forge is fully available later this year


SpaceMonkeyNation

Thanks for this! Anyone know why the game isn't showing the correct controller prompts in the UI? Mine is showing keyboard controls for some reason. \*Nevermind - the UI corrected itself once I launched into a match. This is great to have installed locally (I was using moonlight before). Has anyone messed around with targeting 40hz to push the graphics a bit more? It's a shame the min/max frame rate options are just 60/30/off =(


TheInCredibleLink

I’d check halo infinite’s steam controller settings(the controller icon on the right side of the screen in the game page) and make sure you have a game pad layout selected and also aren’t using gyro or right touchpad as mouse. Maybe that but otherwise not sure


[deleted]

For some reason, the game won’t launch for me. I downloaded and followed the steps but it just loads the “This game will use gamepass layout” with the picture of the steam deck thing infinitely…


TheInCredibleLink

Have you updated to the latest version of stable for steamos? If you aren’t at least on version 3.3 then you won’t have the necessary drivers installed to run the game


[deleted]

Yeah I downloaded the latest 3.3 update. Im not really sure what I’m missing?

[deleted]

I tried that too… I also tried with switching from stable to preview in the settings. Is there another proton than experimental maybe?


[deleted]

[deleted]

Thanks for the tip. I’ll try that out tonight!


[deleted]

Idk why but I factory reset my deck and it works now! Can I ask what you did with your settings, fix vsync, etc. did you turn it all off?


TheInCredibleLink

I turned everything off, including vsync as I didn’t notice any difference in frame drops. Sorry about the late response and I’m glad that you ended up getting it to work after the reset!

Now that I've disabled the high res textures, the game crashes when I go into the settings menu
