Run on Steam Deck?

[electrovir]

Would you be able to make a Steam Deck compatible version? Or provide tips on how to run it on the Steam Deck? (Arch Linux based) It looks like this is written in Java, so could I manually run a .jar file maybe?

I use Linux to develop and test, so should be possible to build a version to run on Steam. The way it is now, it would ask you to select the game path, and the SaveData would be searched in the current directory. I can put some code to detect Steam Deck, but I don't have one so the final result won't be as I wish, but I think it can work.

Do you know the full path where Steam Deck installs the game and the full path of Player.chr ?

This weekend I will build a version for Linux and post here for you.

Here is the build for Linux. Use TQRespec.sh to run, or run ./bin/TQRespec inside TQRespec directory.

Copy the database and text to gamedata/ directory, see Running without the game installed.

Copy your savegames to savedata/ directory, see Android support.

At least for now, you can use this way.

If you see any error, look at /tmp/tqrespec.log.

Sweet, thanks! I'll give it a shot!

Just tested (on PC, not Steam Deck). Thank you so much! Any chance of getting the latest version?

One more thing: I didn't notice this until I was checking my system logs. Even though the program launches correctly, I'm getting a coredump when it starts:

I will take a look at this, issue #55
