Like the title says. I know there are a bunch of articles out there for how to setup NVIDIA gamestream, moonlight, remote play, etc. but it still took me days of searching and trial and error and optimizing and blah blah blah to get it setup. It was a pain in the ass! But now it’s freaking awesome.
I have playnite setup to launch in full screen directly from moonlight (it’s the best game launcher I’ve used and the only one I actually like) so I don’t even have to tap or click and can just use my controller. I use sunshine instead of gamestream which was a bit complicated to get working how I wanted it to. And then I use a gamevice flex (my favorite phone attached controller) and an iPhone 14 pro max to play.
I love this setup because I can play while my wife watches tv and I can stream remotely away from home and the quality is fantastic. I streamed across the country and beat horizon zero dawn. Probably wouldn’t recommend that for a competitive shooter or anything, but anything else is fantastic.
Anywho, if anyone would like a full setup guide, let me know! I have pretty much no lag, no stuttering, and it is freaking awesome.
I’m interest in remote play. But haven’t used it much due to phone clipped on controller being overpriced. What controller are you using?
I started with just a $15 clip for my Xbox controller, but after a couple weeks of that I got annoyed at the awkward weight and holding my controller. I ended up spending the money on a gamevice flex because it has bigger thumb sticks and grips than the backbone or kishi. Still around $100 I think, but it was 100% worth it, if not necessary. I’ve also used my switch pro controller hooked up to my iPad. All of the controllers worked flawlessly, just a personal preference thing and value for $.
