A DeckyLoader plugin for enabling MTP transfer over USB

DeckMTP

A Steam Deck plugin (for Decky Loader) to enable MTP file transfer over USB. USB cable not included.

Installation

Install through Decky plugin store. One additional step is necessary, you need to enable DRD (Dual-Role Device) support through the Steam Deck BIOS. Without this, it's impossible to create USB gadgets, since the USB controller can only act as a host in that case.

To enable DRD, go into BIOS by shutting down your deck, and holding Volume Up and Power until you hear a beep.

Then, select Setup Utility, then Advanced, then USB Configuration, and finally USB Dual-Role Device. Select DRD instead of the existing XHCI and you're set.
