- In this video I will show you how to adjust the game path if the Launcher Config file in order to fix the "Insufficient disc space " error and update Genshin Impact seamlessly on your Deck every time!
Thanks to @MMaximus for spending his time finding this and showing it to us!
If for any reason this method is not working for you you can always use my old foolproof method that will always work despite what an update brings: ruclips.net/video/3sswIYc09wc/видео.html
I have a insufficient storage space bug...
I managed to simplify this process further, though it required a PC + usb C flash drive (warpinator will probabably work too). I just copied my PC genshin install to any directory on my SD card/SSD (I tried both), added the genshin launcher to steam, set the proton version to the latest one, then corrected the install location from the genshin launcher, and It just 100% worked. I didn't have to do any additional controller mapping either. Also as a side note: when logging in you can use the steam button + right track pad to control the mouse. No need to map that one either.
Simplified for you. Wouldnt be for people who dont have the files
Skill issue
pretty clear and easy to follow guide :) thanks for sharing!
This is still giving me unsufficient storage. And the storage it shows on the launcher isnt what my storage is where genshin is downloaded
Hello! Some people do have that issue. Try the foolproof method in the pinned comment instead.
Thanks for the simple tutorials, got GI running quickly and without an issue for a few days, but when i tried to launch it today, it takes a bit to load on the login screen and wants me to login again (weird but not a problem) but now it constantly gives me a "connection failed. Try again later" error. Network is good and GI works on phone for the same network. Ive tried reinstalling launcher, rebooting SD, and launching from Desktop with the same problem. Havent deleted and reinstalled everything again just yet since i wasnt able to leave it to install 70Gb at the moment. Lol Hoping theres a simple fix im just overlooking here.
Just to update this: turns out it was the network after all. I had good connectivity for everything that I could tell and speed test showed fine. I wasn't at home or on a normal network. Once I got home, tried to log in again and worked great. Very odd since Genshin loaded fine on other devices but could've just been an issue specific to the SD and network speeds. That's it though. Running great presently.
Hello! That's an odd one indeed. I would suggest starting with different proton version. If its not doing anything for you put your deck into a battery storage mode and start it from there. Delete all of the saved networks and connect again (also test with hotspot on a mobile connection) if nothing works I would suggest deleting the game from compatdata and installing it fresh.
Have you played GI on Deck for around 3 months at least? Were there periods of the game not working with this native install cause kernel anti-cheat was working? And is it risky in any way cause I thought the only reason it works "natively" on Deck like this is the anti-cheat not working properly for the game.
Hi! Welcome to the channel!
The game was no working for about a week after update 3.7 (Not sure about the exact version)
To put your mind at ease, not a single person in the community has came back reporting that he was banned, and there are 10s if not thousands of players playing GI from a Steam Deck. I also do not believe HoYoverse will leave their most popular game without anti-cheat running on any platform.
weird thing, i ended up doing the same thing every step but when i go to open the launcher, it ended up having to redownload the whole game again. idk if anyone else is having this issue?
Hi! Sorry to hear it is not working for you, this one is very dependent on any path changes the game devs make. Try the fool proof method instead, this one works flawlessly every time:
