Sand: A Superfluous Game

STEAM DECK Support

Sand now supports the STEAM Deck

  • You will need to disable shaders in the options menu and enable the controller.
  • I've also disabled shaders for all new installs of the game. The issue is some people don't have the older directX9 files installed (STEAM DECK does not come with them installed either).

Patch 10/9

Solved

  • New dog added and pug now added back
  • Crash when exiting car with followers

Patch 10/8 #3

SOLVED

  • Fixed crash on power use (space or RB)
  • Fixed issue with production limits no loading correctly for saves 2-4

Investigating

  • Some people crash when build menu opens (nothing showing up). I can't reproduce this, but it might have to do with antivirus/spyware software interfering. If you have this error and disabled your antivirus let me know.

  • Reports of crashing when using a power (SPACE or RB). Still can't reproduce this either.
