Defold 1.4.4 BETA

Gamepad support seems to be broken on Linux, at least on Steam Deck. Trying my Evolution game and with 1.4.4 I get no input and no error messages. On 1.4.3 I get the gamepad input.

@jhonny.goransson could it be related to your gamepad driver changes somehow?

Maybe, need to verify it but it’s likely I guess.

The beta has been updated with support for the latest XCode and macOS/iOS sdks.

The beta server for macOS has also been updated to minimum version of 10.9.
(OSX Mavericks from 2013).
It was necessary since some of the sdk headers are moving away from too versions, and we need to have a decent support using newer headers.

Some other beta updates:

We’ve updated to update to macOS min version 10.13 and iOSmin verion 11.0

All in accordance with Apples recommendations from here

  • We’ve also fixed a (beta) regression with gamepad connections when starting the engine.
  • And we’ve fixed an editor crash when loading a lot of models

Have you got a chance to look into it?

@jhonny.goransson is away this week, but @JCash has been looking into it, and a fix has been merged into the dev and beta branches:
