Steam Deck

Project Reignition now works natively on the Steam Deck and other Linux distributions.

This guide assumes you already have HDR set up on your Steam Deck, and that you’re using a GameCube controller for your controls. A keyboard and mouse will also come in handy. If you don’t have HDR set up on Steam Deck, follow my previous guide. 1. Configure Profile and Settings Open Yuzu. Open the configuration menu by going to Emulation -> Configure… From the System section on the left, go to the Profiles tab.

HewDraw Remix, or HDR for short (not to be confused with High Dynamic Range), is – as the GitHub repository explains – “a free to play fan-made modification of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.” The README goes on to mention “various techniques from previous Smash games are added to create a fresh experience that blends the design of the older games with the new, along with plenty of new moves and balance changes to keep the experience unique.

Project M EX Remix, or PMEX Remix for short, is an extension of Project+ that adds a ton of new characters, stages, and rulesets. The project has recently been renamed to REX, and the team continues to expand their ambitious vision of this massive mod. Getting it set up on Deck is very similar to Project+. Requirements As with the case of Project+, you’ll obviously need a dumped ISO of your Brawl disc, along with a USB-C dock with at least two USB ports for your GameCube controller adapter and an Ethernet port if you’re planning on using netplay.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl was regarded as being a major step down from its’ predecessor, Melee, as far as fighting mechanics were concerned. Many of the competitive mechanics were either stripped down or ripped out entirely, including wavedashing and L-canceling. And, for some reason, Sakurai thought it’d be a good idea to introduce random tripping. Thankfully, some very talented modders emerged from the community not too long after Brawl’s release in 2008.

Prior to COVID-19, players who wanted to verse each other in Super Smash Bros. Melee would have to do so locally. Thankfully, it wasn’t all bad news during the lockdown. Project creator Fizzi, along with several other key contributors, didn’t just sit around with their thumbs twidling. They actively went to work implementing rollback netcode to the classic 2001 title, which would allow players across the globe to battle with each other from the comfort of their home.

If you happen to be a Smash Bros. fan like myself, you probably have a GameCube controller that you use to play it with. One disadvantage, however, with using either the Mayflash GameCube controller adapter or the official adapter by Nintendo, is that by default, the adapter polls at a rate of 125 Hz, or every eight milliseconds. Ideally, we want to increase the poll rate to 1,000 Hz, that is, every millisecond.
