- Fixed some cases where a „Configuration disabled for unknown controller“ message would be shown when trying to edit a controller configuration
- Fixed Launchers in Steam games not using the Desktop Configuration

macOS
- Added basic Steam Overlay support to games using the Metal graphics API (macOS 10.11 and above). Screenshots and Streaming support for Metal games not yet supported.
- Fixed a bug where non-existent “GamePad-1†could appear in subsequent launches of Steam after using a Steam Controller
Linux
- Updated STEAM_RUNTIME_PREFER_HOST_LIBRARIES logic to still prefer Steam Runtime libraries if they are more recent than the host system
- Updated Vulkan loader in Steam Runtime to version 1.0.54, which provides all the extensions currently needed for SteamVR
- Added support for shader cache management on supported drivers (Mesa 17.1 and NVIDIA 381.26.08 or 384.59). Shader caches for games launched by Steam are placed in separate folders next to their Steam Library folder and are deleted when each game is uninstalled, or when switching drivers or graphics cards. Individual shaders are tracked and catalogued by the Steam servers in preparation for distributing pre-compiled shaders. This tracking can incur slight additional bandwidth use. The system can be disabled by setting the environment variable STEAM_ENABLE_SHADER_CACHE_MANAGEMENT=0

- Fixed adding arbitrary binaries as non-Steam shortcuts
- Fixed game support for DualShock 4 controllers when using recent kernels
- Fixed games using the ISteamHTMLSurface interface failing to display content on Linux if they created their browser object too quickly
