Play RuneLite as "Old School RuneScape" on Steam Deck

Steam Deck@sopuli.xyzEnglish · 11 months ago

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this I just figured maybe someone has experience with launching a non-steam game as a steam game through launch options.

I’m trying to play RuneLite through Old School RuneScape (number go up make feel goooood). My issue is that it loads for a second or two then closes…

What I’ve done:

Went into desktop mode and downloaded RuneLite.AppImage from RuneLite.net
Marked RuneLite.AppImage as an executable
Launched RuneLite and set setting according to Reddit user squeezeme_juiceme here (probably not relevant)
Closed RuneLite to save settings (also probably not relevant, just recanting my process)
Set my launch options as /home/deck/Downloads/RuneLite.AppImage ; killall -9 RuneLite.AppImage # %console%
cried because it’s not working

I’d recommend a decky plugin. https://github.com/ma3a/SDH-PlayTime
