Beyond Good & Evil - Steam Deck and installation steps

[legluondunet]

Hello @psstoyanov , that's ok for me.

[psstoyanov]

Thanks, @legluondunet !

I want to check these couple of lines before I make a submission:

MyLittleLutrisScripts/Beyond Good and Evil/Beyond Good and Evil - GOG.txt

Line 31 in 2124230

Height: $RESOLUTION_HEIGHT

On the Deck, the default orientation for the display is portrait so maybe, the script doesn't take the orientation when it's fetching the width && height in desktop mode. I know this is needed for the utrawidescreen fix.

If I can confirm this is the case, might be better just to add the technical note to your installer given someone does install it through the desktop mode on Steam Deck in bge.ini

[psstoyanov]

Confirmed!

The resulting bge.ini when installed from desktop mode is:

[MAIN]
Width=800
Height=1280

[HUD]
HUD_posX_auto=1 // 0 - Off; 1 - On (beta);

[MISC]
PillarBox=2 // 0 - off; 1 - on; 2 - advanced pillarboxing
Gameplay_FOV=1.2 // original value 1.2;

Needs to be adjusted on the Deck if installed from Desktop mode.

I've submitted an updated description with the above information to your installer on Lutris, @legluondunet .

Maybe it's a good idea to add it to the README.md?

- Widescreen patch
- Fix audio sync
- BGE Gog edition does not natively support controller, only Keyboard.  For a better gaming experience, you will find profiles for x360 and Steam Controller in the "gamepad profiles" folder

#### SettingsApplication.exe not running 
disable DXVK before launching

#### Audio is still too fast - when using DXVK on high refreshrate monitor
Set the following system environment variable to limit in Lutris for the game
`DXVK_FRAME_RATE=60`

#### Issue when installing on Steam Deck from Desktop mode:
- Crashed in DeckUI
- It's launching in tall window in Desktop mode
#### Solution:
Edit `bge.ini` as it will have the Width and Height swapped as follows:

[MAIN]
Width=1280
Height=800

#### Note:
The reason for the Steam Deck in Desktop mode to swap the values is because the default display orientation on the Steam Deck is not landscape but portrait mode.

#### Note 2:
Installing on Steam Deck through DeckUI correctly fetches the screen resolution
