OG Crysis 2007 running on the steam deck using a combo of the C1-launcher and GE-Proton7-37
I can confirm I have indeed got OG Crysis 2007 running on the steam deck using a combo of the C1-launcher mentioned here (https://github.com/ccomrade/c1-launcher) and the GE-Proton7-37 (installed using proton up qt). Little more fiddly than i'd like but hey thats what pc gaming is all about :)
It runs well considering the single thread limits of the cry engine 2 - i currently use all settings very high 800p when portable (using 40fps/40hz) and 900p docked @30fps. I found MSAA is just a step too far and tanks performance. Even managed to copy in a modded install from my main pc. It just blows my mind it runs so well on this hardware!
When the frame drops audio cuts and breaks with the stutter
Massive frame drops when driving
Seems to perform well until you drive anywhere (most of the gameplay requires this). When attempting to drive the stuttering and frame drops are noticable regardless of ANY setting tweaks.. Its a shame as inbetween these moments the gameplay is very smooth and shows promise. Running uplay titles is very tricky ATM (STEAMDECK)
