Just a quick question, does either Ironwail/Quakespasm and TrenchBroom run in either the Steam OS or the Steam Deck? I’m looking into the Steam OS as my primary gaming operating system, and I would like to know if both programs run in that environment. This is just one of many questions that I need asked before I am willing to jump into a different system other than Windows. Thanks for your help I appreciate it.
Yes, they should do. I’m running linux (CachyOS - same base as SteamOS) and both TrenchBroom and Ironwail run natively. You can check the AUR (Arch User Repository) to see if there are packages you can use:
To install what I had to do was type “paru ironwail” and hit Y. Note that I’m not endorsing installing random AUR packages willynilly, I just know these two are all good.
You can also check github to see if there are linux releases:
