Steam's latest beta brings 'Big Art' to Big Picture Mode and Steam Deck, and customizable screensavers too The update makes a number of less flashy changes too. If you play on a Steam Deck, or just rock with Big Picture Mode on your PC, the latest Steam client beta will be of big interest: It adds a new "Big Art Mode" that makes your home screen look a whole lot prettier (this is a subjective evaluation, yes, but I think it's prettier), a new screensaver feature, and a range of performance improvements and bug fixes. There are two screensavers available: - General - Improved Steam Client startup performance - Fixed a case where after server maintenance some users might fail to auto-reconnect to Steam - Fixed bug where being prompted to refresh credentials more than once could trigger an immediate restart - On Windows, using the systray menu to exit while the Steam window is minimized will no longer flash the window visible briefly - Dialogs that appear for serious error conditions now stay above the main window - Game Recording - Fixed some cases where playback would jump to an unexpected point in the timeline when reaching the end of a play session or clip - Decreased performance impact of game recording for some D3D12 games on Windows - In-Game Overlay - Fixed frame rate hitches in D3D11 and D3D12 games when taking screenshots on Windows - Fixed rendering the overlay and using other overlay related features (screenshots, game recording, etc.) in Vulkan games that create multiple windows. - Big Picture Mode - Added explicit warning text to power menu confirmation dialogs when proceeding will shut down an active game - Updated default artwork when an app does not have library or hero artwork - Reorganized the idle timer settings when on battery and AC power - Steam Input - Improved CPU performance at runtime and in configuration loading - Added information about which configurations are compatible in the configurator browser when using a game that requires Steam Input API - Fixed the controller support widget showing "This game doesn't support controllers" for unreleased games that don't have controller support information yet - Fixed controllers not using the desktop configuration on the desktop UI login window - Added the missing settings for adjusting emulated joystick adaptive centering on trackpad - Linux - Improved download speeds on high latency connections.
