Downloading and Compiling

If you're on a pretty up to date distro you can go to Releases instead. Afterwards skip straight to Usage or Installation and Uninstallation

Requires: 32 bit versions of g++, OpenSSL & pkg-config

Then run:

git clone "https://github.com/AceSLS/SLSsteam"
cd SLSsteam
make

Usage

LD_AUDIT="/full/path/to/SLSsteam.so" steam

Configuration

Configuration gets created at ~/.config/SLSsteam/config.yaml during first run

Installation and Uninstallation

Any distro:

./setup.sh install
./setup.sh uninstall

Arch Linux:

Download latest SLSsteam-Arch.pkg.tar.zst then run:

sudo pacman -U SLSsteam-Arch.pkg.tar.zst

NixOS:

Add this to your flake inputs

sls-steam = {
  url = "github:AceSLS/SLSsteam";
  inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
};

Then, add it to your packages and run it with SLSsteam from the terminal

environment.systemPackages = [inputs.sls-steam.packages.${pkgs.system}.wrapped];

Alternatively, to have it run with steam on any launch, add it to your steam environment variables

programs.steam.package = pkgs.steam.override {
  extraEnv = {
    LD_AUDIT = "${inputs.sls-steam.packages.${pkgs.system}.sls-steam}/SLSsteam.so";
  };
};

Configuration on NixOS

You can configure SLSsteam declaratively using the home-manager module

Add the module to your imports

imports = [inputs.sls-steam.homeModules.sls-steam];

Then configure it through services.sls-steam.config. For example:

services.sls-steam.config = {
  PlayNotOwnedGames = true;
  AdditionalApps = [
    3769130
  ];
};

You can find further details in the definition file

Updating

git pull
make rebuild

Afterwards run the installer again if that's what you've been using to launch SLSsteam
