steamdeck and MOO

[knoxvilles_joker]

Steam deck compatibility. I had to manually set the game to launch with dosbox-staging. The default dosbox setup does not work with kde plasma linux. Then add it as a custom non steam game. Launches like a dream and works.

I am still chewing on how to do the equivalent with a simple shell script which would be an easier mod to the pre-installed game via steam.

But should be a line like this:
flatpak run io.github.dosbox-staging -conf /home/deck/dosbox/MOO/dosbox.conf /home/deck/dosbox/MOO/orion.exe

key notes to fix dosbox to fill screen in dosbox.conf change:
windowresolution = 1280x800

to mount the drive:
(in autoexec section add)
mount c /home/deck/dosbox/MOO/data

c:
cls
orion.exe
exit

Cool, but assuming this for the Original Master of Orion 1 Classic? If so I would suggest posting this to https://steamcommunity.com/app/410970/discussions/ as well.

Done. I only got the steam deck as I am trying to set it up as my main linux programming and hacking rig for hardware (arduino and raspberry PI stuff)
