The recent EmuDeck 2.2 update came out a bit less baked than desired. The EmuDeck team deeply apologizes for any issues you may have faced updating. The team is working hard on pushing out hotfixes, all of which are listed below.
If you have an issue that is not resolved by one of the below items, please create a GitHub account and open an issue on the EmuDeck GitHub repository at https://github.com/dragoonDorise/EmuDeck. Include logs when possible. For a tutorial on how to retrieve logs, see https://emudeck.github.io/troubleshooting/steamos/#how-to-get-the-emudeck-log. Make sure to upload both the EmuDeck log and the AppImage log.
First, let's begin with Steam shortcuts launching into RetroArch or the emulator instead of the game.
To fix this issue:
- Open the EmuDeck app, you will receive a prompt to apply the hotfix
- Click yes to the prompt and your ROMs will now launch directly into the game
If you say no to the prompt, you may apply this hotfix at any time by resetting the respective emulator on the Manage Emulators page in the EmuDeck application.
The hotfixes below are applied when either resetting the respective emulator on the Manage Emulators page or running through an easy/custom reset in the EmuDeck application.
List of Hotfixes
- Steam ROM Manager parsers have been rolled back. Instead of dynamically loading parsers, the old way of retrieving parsers is still intact. You will receive the full list of Steam ROM Manager parsers when installing EmuDeck or resetting Steam ROM Manager in the EmuDeck application
- Fixed launchers not refreshing properly
- This would cause the headaching issue of ROMs lauching into the emulator instead of the ROM

- Bring Your Own Citra and Yuzu now work correctly if you have the appropriately named AppImages in
$HOME/Applications. The "Reset Configuration" button will now work, apply the appropriate controls, and grab the latest launchers for you. To emphasize, no support for these emulators is guaranteed through EmuDeck
