Livesplits overlay still works if I'm in windowed mode but not in borderless. Not really keen on sharing my taskbar etc. There's got to be something I'm missing.

EDIT - OK. I Think I got it. If I launch the game in windowed and than switch it to borderless it seems to work. Will report back after further testing. EDIT 2 - Got it sorted. Thank you for your help and for patience with a noob like me.

Thanks for the replies. I'm getting there. So for this game there doesn't appear to be any auto splits so that's fine. I can just set up a few to my liking and hotkey them during a run. I'm able to do a screen cap with OBS of the game with LiveSplit overlay the way I like it but I can't actually see LiveSplit over my game when playing. I'd like it to be that way and just record the screen.

OK. I figured OBS out more or less and am moving on to setting up a timer. I think I understand how LiveSplit works but am unsure how I need to set it up to be official. Total noob here so sorry if I have stupid questions.

Hey all. I'm 40 years old, from Rochester, New York. Been playing games since I was very young and have always found speedrunning quite entertaining but have just decided recently to give it a go myself. Currently, I am practicing runs of the Battlefield 4 campaign. I'm not even near the point where I'm ready to start uploading runs but I've got time since I still haven't figured out how to set up a decent timer and capture software, but I'm not really doing this to compete with anyone but myself.
