So lately i havent been able to play sims 4 trough remote play on any device i try to. doesnt work on mobile phone, ipad nor the steam deck. apparently many people have been running into this issue since the last crystal patch. i just hope we get a fix for this sooner rather than later 🙂
Did you try contacting Steam Support for help with this.
its literally got nothing to do with steam. Its either a problem on EA's part or the update/DLC that broke the remote play function of the game.
I think you will find that Remote play is something that Steam offers and the Steam deck as the name suggests are also Steam.
- @jpkarlsen Steam is not the issue. We are well aware that Steam is not an EA product. I have read of similar issues from a few years ago being caused by the EA in-game overlay, but so far no one has found a solution to the problem in this topic, which is ridiculous as it's been an ongoing problem for over a month. I've seen myself the game will stream fine if you accidently stream your desktop. As soon as you click on the game's window, the entire window turns green, so it's clearly a game issue.
