## Game not on the list?
Please create a new issue with the AppId and game name.
Include the location and name of the file that holds the configuration. When looking for the file both https://steamdb.info/ and https://www.pcgamingwiki.com can be helpful.

### How to add a game
You can add another game by adding it to the paths.txt file.

The format is:

AppID;directory/of/config;configfilename.ext
	
Example:

814380;%APPDATA%/Sekiro;GraphicsConfig.xml

Add one game per line and use forward slashes as path separators with Windows style path variables where needed.

If you successfully add another game please open a pull request so others can benefit.

## How to use:

### Linux/Steam Deck

Download the script somewhere and make sure it's set as executable.
Also save the paths.txt file in the same place.

Alternatively just use git:

git clone https://github.com/tmplshdw/cloud_config_workaround.git ~/cloud_config_workaround

Add the launch option to the relevant game (change the location if you save it elsewhere)

`/home/$USER/cloud_config_workaround/cloud_config_workaround.sh %command%`

### Windows

Download the script somewhere

Add the launch option to the relevant game

`\path\to\download\cloud_config_workaround.bat %command%`

#### Controlled folder access

The Windows script stores configs and logs in the `game_configs` directory under your Windows Documents folder, including a redirected OneDrive Documents folder. If Windows Security reports that an unauthorized change was blocked, Controlled folder access may be preventing the script from writing there.

Instead of disabling Controlled folder access, either change `GOODCONFIGSDIR` in `cloud_config_workaround.bat` to a location that is not listed under Protected folders (for example, `%LOCALAPPDATA%\game_configs` on a default Windows setup), or follow [Microsoft's instructions](https://support.microsoft.com/windows/virus-and-threat-protection-in-the-windows-security-app-1362f4cd-d71a-b52a-0b66-c2820032b65e) to review recently blocked apps and allow only an executable you trust.

### If using Flatpak version of Steam:
Follow Linux/Steam Deck step and ensure you give the Steam Flatpak read/write access to your Documents folder. You may also need to provide read permissions for where you saved the cloud_config_workaround.sh script if you saved it outside your Documents folder. 
Flatseal can be used to assist with this or in the KDE Plasma settings under Personization -> Applications -> Flatpak Permission Settings.

### Multiple launch options
When you need to run multiple launch options alongside the script, only one %command% is needed at the end. Additional options may be added with a space to seperate each option
Ex.
`/path/to/download/cloud_config_workaround.sh gamemoderun %command%`
