The Saboteur™

The Saboteur™

Game launches to display settings - Steam Deck
Hi! When launching the game on Steam Deck, the game launches the display settings and then closes back to game page when accepting or cancelling from the settings menu. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing the game which is not changing the launch to open the game. Advice would be appreciated!

I think iv worked it out.

We need to edit the config file in "My Documents". To do this, go on the Steam Deck desktop mode, go to the following folder;

"/home/deck/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/24880/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/My Documents/My Games/The Saboteur™/SaveGames/"

Open the config.ini file and change the settings to this;

DisplayProfile 0
ScreenWidth 1280
ScreenHeight 720
TextureQuality 3
SliceQuality 2
ClipRange 3
ObjectQuality 2
RainDensity 75
Shadows 1
RefreshRate 60
PostProcessing 1
VSync 0
Windowed 1

What this does is change the refresh rate to 60hz, turned off v sync and also added a line to force windowed mode. Lastly i used a 720p resolution as 1280 x 800 seems to stretch a 4:3 resolution and is not proper widescreen.

Had the same problem, in game properties on steam, you have to set launch options to ''Play the Saboteur'' instead of ''Video setup''
This is so helpful, thank so much.

This is one of my favourite ever games and now I can enjoy it again on Steam Deck! 😁
