📋 About This Mod

This mod aims to improve performance, stability & consistency for the Steam Deck & other low powered handhelds/PCs. Offering large performance improvements

Everything I make is free & always will be, but purchasing hardware, tools

& games for testing means I lose money to deliver my content. Please

donate on Patreon or Ko-fi if you wish to help me out.
