Make FFXI Beautiful Again On The Steam Deck

Make FFXI Beautiful Again On The Steam Deck

This is a Steam Deck version of @NextGames' amazing guide for modding FFXI to bring this game forward in time a bit. If you haven't seen it yet, I recommend that you open up his video on how to make FFXI beautiful in another browser tab as this guide is meant to be a companion to that video but for those wishing to follow along on the Steam Deck. I will not be repeating his work, just augmenting it with what I discovered works on my Steam Deck.

Document Status

This is currently a Work In Progress. With @Gratiano's contribution, it's content complete but I haven't had a chance to go through and confirm functionality personally.

Current Threads I'm Working On

  • I cannot get ReShade to work. I am trying to get it inserted into the series of translation calls thusly: FFXI -> dgVoodoo -> ReShade -> DXVK -> Vulkan GPU Driver.
  • Once I have that figured out, I would like to see if I couldn't then get it to work in a FFXI -> D8
