Gameplay not captured after quitting for Hacker
7 years ago
United States

Not sure if anyone else has ran into this issue, but recently after quitting once the red message shows up after Hacker and re-entering for me makes it where OBS no longer records the game capture until you disable and re-enable the capture. If you don't, the next 3-4 minutes of gameplay won't show up, but will randomly re-enable itself sometime later (for me it was Office). This doesn't seem to happen when quitting the game normally to reset or otherwise, but only when it plays the segment after being forced to leave and coming back.

I just wanted to throw that out there in case other people didn't know to keep their eye out for it, and see if anyone else that has encountered the issue has some sort of solution or reasoning for it happening. It doesn't seem to 100% happen, but just sporadically.

I just did a stream and I didn't have this issue. That sounds very annoying, though. Let's hope it doesn't happen during my Shots Fired 2 run. >.<

A solution to this would be to run it in a window and use a cropped monitor capture, or run it in fullscreen windowed and do the same without cropping. I usually am too quick to assume multi-monitor setups, though, so I know some options don't work for everyone.

It seems like it happens for a couple people that I watched, where gameplay after resetting is delayed for showing up until they've gotten into the typing section right after the reset. But none to the extent where my gameplay was completely not there past Fall.

It seems to be no longer doing this, though I'm not sure if it's because of a shift to OBS Studio or because I'm launching directly from the .exe now instead of the launcher (which is quicker anyways for anyone that still launches from Steam).

But still something for new people to look out for, so you don't end up not recording half of a run.
