Valve has a fun solution for the Steam Deck, which is shipping pre-compiled shaders for your device across the wire that get installed along with the game. I'm curious to see whether that will become more widespread eventually.
- phatfish 2y agoI assume other Steam Deck like hardware which is a fixed target could support it, apparently the Legion Go S is going to ship with Steam OS rather than Windows. On PC hardware it seems unlikely, more chance of Epic fixing their engine.
- kridsdale1 2y agoYeah the fixed hardware is key here. The PS5 doesn’t have to compile shaders at app launch time either.
- jayd16 2y agoThat's still pre-warming. Sometimes you can target hardware and do it at dev time but its the essentially the same process.
