[News] PowerTools v2.0.0

NGnius@lemmy.ca to Steam Deck@sopuli.xyz – 42 points – Internal Server Error - git.ngni.us

Steam Deck plugin for controlling additional power settings. New in this version:

  • Online repository of setting profiles
  • Settings variants for every game #82
  • New save file and override file format
  • Steam Deck OLED compatibility tweaks
  • UI fixes (hopefully somewhat future proof)
  • Bugfixes
  • Removed some legacy code

It should be available on the main Decky store soon™ (it's already on the testing store). I lurk here too much to ask for a favour, but if you submit a testing report you can speed up getting this version onto the main store.

Oh cool, thanks for making power tools! This update looks really nice too!

I always have it installed, but don't usually mess with it unless someone tells me a specific setting needs to be changed (like how SMT used to need to be disabled for emulators, or some games that have performance issues unless the CPU frequency is manually capped). Letting people share profiles for games sounds like a great way to let even less technical users benefit from power tools.

Looks great! I haven't played with it before, but the multi-profile per game feature looks very handy
