Steam Client Update Released

A new Steam client has been released and will be automatically downloaded. Library

Added a section to display a rollup of new DLC and other game content that has been released since you last visited a game's library page. Once visible, this section will automatically hide after a short period of time.

Tunable Forward Deadzone Angle.

Rapid consecutive Flick-Turns will be fully respected (the previous Flick-Turn was interrupted in the last version)

Flick-Turn Duration becomes a tunable smoothing factor (low pass filter), instead of a fixed duration. The time to complete a turn is relative to the size of the angle being turned.

Flick-Turn is smoothed based on how far the stick is thrown past the inner deadzone, for a less "surprising" Flick-Turn threshold.

Sensitivity Setting becomes "Pixels Per Revolution" (This setting was previously pixels per half revolution).

Sweep rotation sensitivity and smoothing can be tuned independent of Flick-Turn.

More gradual rotation when stick is partially-thrown

Steam Overlay

Fixed web browser crash when loading certain blank URLs

macOS
