Installing
Windows
Automatic
To install Millennium on windows, we use a PowerShell installer script. To run the script, open PowerShell, paste the following command, and press enter.
This installer is entirely open source and we encourage the community audit the source code.
iwr -useb "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SteamClientHomebrew/Millennium/main/scripts/install.ps1" | iex
Manual
Start by downloading the Millennium's Windows assets from this repository under the name millennium-v0.0.0-windows-x86_64.zip. Simply put all files into your Steam directory, which you can find by running the PowerShell command below
(Get-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Valve\Steam" -Name "InstallPath").InstallPath
Linux
Millennium on linux is mostly uncharted territory. There is absolutely no guarantee that Millennium will work OOB/at all. Proper support is coming, but its not quite here just yet. If you face any issues, report them on the repository, but do not expect a immediate fix.
Automatic
Shell (pre-built binary)
This installer is entirely open source and we encourage the community audit the source code.
curl -fsSL "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SteamClientHomebrew/Millennium/main/scripts/install.sh" | sh
You can then run Steam with Millennium from ~/.millennium/start.sh
Manual
Start by downloading the Millennium's Linux assets from this repository under the name millennium-v0.0.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz. Extract and put all files in ~/.millennium/. Then make the following files executable
~/.millennium/ext/data/cache/bin/python3.11(Used to manage plugin packages; is not daemon)~/.millennium/ext/bin/millennium~/.millennium/start.sh
by running chmod +x path/to/file
You can then run Steam with Millennium from ~/.millennium/start.sh
Optionally, you can also add ~/.millennium/ext/bin/ to $PATH to be able to globally run Millenniums config CLI, although you can alternatively just configure Millennium from Steam's UI (Steam -> Settings -> Plugins & Updates & Themes)
