Please create a new issue with the AppId and game name. Include the location and name of the file that holds the configuration. When looking for the file both https://steamdb.info/ and https://www.pcgamingwiki.com can be helpful.
You can add another game by adding it to the paths.txt file.
The format is:
AppID;directory/of/config;configfilename.ext Example:
814380;%APPDATA%/Sekiro;GraphicsConfig.xml Add one game per line and use forward slashes as path separators with Windows style path variables where needed.
If you successfully add another game please open a pull request so others can benefit.
Download the script somewhere and make sure it's set as executable. Also save the paths.txt file in the same place.
Alternatively just use git:
git clone https://github.com/tmplshdw/cloud_config_workaround.git ~/cloud_config_workaround Add the launch option to the relevant game (change the location if you save it elsewhere)
/home/$USER/cloud_config_workaround.sh %command%
Download the script somewhere
Add the launch option to the relevant game
\path\to\download\cloud_config_workaround.bat %command%
Follow Linux/Steam Deck step and ensure you give the Steam Flatpak read/write access to your Documents folder. You may also need to provide read permissions for where you saved the cloud_config_workaround.sh script if you saved it outside your Documents folder. Flatseal can be used to assist with this or in the KDE Plasma settings under Personization -> Applications -> Flatpak Permission Settings.
When you need to run multiple launch options alongside the script, only one %command% is needed at the end. Additional options may be added with a space to seperate each option Ex. /path/to/download/cloud_config_workaround.sh gamemoderun %command%
