Your Steam client can now help load certain games a little more smoothly. The new shader pre-caching feature, which went into beta in November and now comes to all users via the latest stable client update, allows Steam to download pre-compiled shader code for OpenGL and Vulkan games. So instead of having your PC compile high level shader code into a version tuned for your GPU, Steam will snag it for you before you ever launch the game.

PSA PSA Verify integrity of game cache from your browser using steam://validate/ to avoid locking the Steam client submitted 4 years ago by DontMoveToAustin I see people post about being unable to use the Steam client while verifying their game cache once a week, so I thought this little tip might be helpful. From your Steam Client, open the Settings panel by selecting 'Steam Settings' from the top left client menu. In the Settings panel, select the Downloads tab and you'll find the 'Clear Download Cache' button at the bottom. Then select 'OK' to confirm and acknowledge that you'll need to login to Steam again. Latest Steam Client Beta Introduces Shader Pre-Caching for Games. For OpenGL and Vulkan games that Steam decided to take the matter into their own hands through this baking-in in the Steam client. At the same time, with DX12 games dwindling in number and becoming few and far between with sometimes questionable games over their previous.

Note that the feature uses a 'small amount' of bandwidth, and can be turned off in the settings menu if you're not cool with Steam messing with your shaders. The size of the shaders should be fairly negligible compared to the gigs and gigs games themselves require these days, though, and you can see how much space they're taking up in the settings. With Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus and a variety of other games installed, one of our Steam clients was holding onto just 9 MB of shader data.

Pre-compiled shader caching is not new in general—AMD and Nvidia both cache compiled shaders after a game's first load—but Valve clearly felt there was more to be done for OpenGL and Vulkan-based games.

The update also includes a host of controller support improvements, including treating the controller like a mouse if a game opens a launcher before actually launching. 'Several dozen Xbox-compatible controllers' will now be properly detected as Xbox controllers, rather than generic controllers, and Steam now supports a few more PS4 controllers: the HORI TAC4, HORI TAC PRO, Hitbox PS4 Arcade Stick, and Venom PS4 Arcade Stick.

Hey guys.
Im trying to install Just Cause 3 but Steam wont let me install it, claiming that my harddrive is full.
However, my disk still has 80GB of free storage. I have deinstalled all programs that sucked up a lot of space but Steam still says that i have 0 MB available.
I have tried rebooting several times as well as ending the Steam client via Task Manager. I also signed back in and back out again as well as clearing my download cache in Steam.
If anyone knows how to resolve this issue ill be for ever greatful.
thank you in advance.
