    Because there is no way to install Decky from the game view/mode itself.

    Basically, think of it as a mod, or maybe a mod manager, but for the game view/mode itself.

    … Can you install a mod for Skyrim… from within Skyrim?

    Probably not lol, that would be a hell of a spell.

    Yeah, you gotta go tinker with things in the background for the foreground to get a bunch of nifty new neat stuff.

    And more specifically, with this update to Decky Frame Gen… install is manual because this is experimental.

    They don’t want to push an update that could break as a mainline update… so, they don’t.

    If you want to volunteer to be a guinea pig, you gotta get on the treadmill.

      This is not what I was referring to. None of the guides actually go through the DeckLoader install process, they generally just link back to a previous guide on how to do that.

      And more specifically, with this update to Decky Frame Gen… install is manual because this is experimental.

      It’s not manual though. If you already have DeckyLoader installed, you can just install DeckyFrameGen from within the DeckyLoader menu in game mode. I’m pointing out that it’s silly to go into desktop mode to do a manual install when it’s literally just 2 clicks inside DeckyLoader
