NonSteamLaunchers v3.9.7

Bridging the gap between Windows and Linux 🚀

Desktop Version 🖥

• UMU Launcher Integration: NonSteamLaunchers is now an UMU based script. Proton GE will still be used in the meantime when necessary! NSL will now download and install UMU, providing UMU shortcuts automatically, if possible. All of this is done automatically for you! <3 :D

• GEProton Improvements: Reworked the download and extraction process to fix the issue where it would get stuck. No more stuck!

• Scanner Fixes: Improved GOG and EA and itchio and EA scanners to better detect more games and correctly format them for desktop. there shouldnt be anymore differences between the desktop version and the plugin. Dos Box Games are now correctly formatted and working. Feel free to try!

• New Additions: Added Plex, Apple TV+, and Crunchyroll.

• Full Screen Tab View: Added the ability to use multiple tabs on any streaming site in full screen. Moving the mouse arrow to the top or sliding your finger to the top of the screen will enable the "x" to show, allowing "full screen tab view." New shortcuts will need to be made to take advantage of both UMU and the new Chrome streaming shortcuts.

Decky Plugin Version 🔌

-The NSL Plugin Scanners now work on Windows: if you install the NSL Decky Plugin on Windows and run a scan auto or manual, you will be given a nice shortcut for all of your windows games artwork and all. For now, only scanning works, but depending on what you have on your system you will now have all of your shortcuts for all the launchers and games currently supported. <3
This means that when you install Decky Loader on a windows system, and install the NSL Plugin, you will automatically get your launchers and games all setup in steam for you just like a normal windows pc gaming system, all in the correct format!

• Full Screen Tab View: Added the ability to use multiple tabs on any streaming site in full screen. Moving the mouse arrow to the top or sliding your finger to the top of the screen will enable the "x" to show, allowing "full screen tab view." New shortcuts will need to be made to take advantage of both UMU and the new Chrome streaming shortcuts. this will work in game mode as well.
• Improved Notifications: Reworked the code for NonSteamLaunchers.desktop and NSLPlugin.desktop files to provide better notifications, allowing you to easily see what is going on.

Notes 📝

• In order to take advantage of the new UMU shortcuts or any of these new features, Dont forget to delete your shortcuts so NSL can remake them, whether you're using Desktop Mode or Game Mode :)

• There are now two .desktop files:

  • Desktop Version: NonSteamLaunchers.desktop (includes the option to install the latest version of the NSL Decky Loader PLugin").
  • Plugin Version: NSLPlugin.desktop (if you already have Decky Loader installed and dont want to use Desktop Mode.).
