Hello!

I’ve been a somewhat new member of the community here. My crummy windows PC can’t really handle any games outside of maybe some GBA emulators.

However! I recently was gifted a Steam Deck.

As a test, ages ago, I tried to set up Yuzu and Tears of the Kingdom on my W11 machine.

It crashed on launch, but BG3 didn’t! It ran on 2 frames per second.

I have a few other similar games that I would love to play on my Deck. But I’m not sure how to get the files transferred!

I tried using KDE Connect to move the Repacked files over, but couldn’t get that working.

I then tried dropping the repacks into a USB and transferring that, but it didn’t seem to work either — the file wasn’t recognized.

Should I just set up my Steam Deck from scratch and ignore my seedbox of a laptop?

Okay. So I was able to install to Lutris, set it up, and got this error when installing to my SD card. It has 117 GB free, and I only need around 70 GB free according to the installer.

Error message I got was.

An error occurred while unpacking: Not enough memoryl

Unarc.dIl returned an error code: -5

ERROR: archive data corrupted (decompression fails)

I'm guessing this is a fitgirl repack? Try the "limit to 2GB memory" checkbox on the first page of the installer.

Update!

I ended up grabbing the Dodi Repack of Dispatch — just as a test — and got that working. So I think I’m good to go now.

Thanks for your help!

Yeah. I’ll see if that works. Might be worth a shot. Also might try Streamrip.

The error you were getting was about memory, not storage. I haven't used steamrip before, so I can't really give you any useful advice on that front.
