Even then, the shaders for steam deck wouldn’t work on other devices with different GPU architecture. I think it might require the same CPU architure as well. But, I’m not confident on the second part.
I wasn’t talking about other devices. Just the steam deck. If it’s a game bought through steam you get the pre-cache files. If it’s a game you’re playing on the SD, but was purchased/obtained outside of steam you can still play it but you won’t have the pre-cache files to use.
