New Vegas and Oblivion deployment scripts points to older SteamDeck file structure for external install

Scripts should be easy to fix with a quick find/replace job, turning "mmcblk0p1" into "deck/SdCardForDeck"

Didn't they keep the old path functional through a symlink though?

(deck@steamdeck media)$ ls -la /run/media/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x   3 root root  80 Dec 26 19:02 .
drwxr-xr-x  27 root root 660 Dec 26 19:02 ..
drwxr-x---+  3 root root  60 Dec 26 19:02 deck
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root  52 Dec 26 19:02 mmcblk0p1 -> /run/media/deck/6d6d5c41-a765-4ecd-b471-4beaea3832cd

So this one's a bit weird. If you had an SD card in there before Steam made this change, They have the symlink up so nothing in there broke. However, if you use a new SD card, Steam does not make a new symlink for it.

Ah, interesting. Makes sense why it's breaking for some people now then.

"deck/SdCardForDeck"

Is that something that only shows up if you plug in a new SD card?

All I have in /run/media/deck is 6d6d5c41-a765-4ecd-b471-4beaea3832cd.
