Bug Report 19.0.3 - attempting to hook process: GRW.exe failing (Ghost Recon Wildlands)

[Djidiouf]

Hi, since the version 19.0.3 of OBS Studio, I can't record anymore (or even have a preview of my recording) the game Ghost Recon Wildlands.

In the logs, here are the errors:

22:42:15.093: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] attempting to hook process: GRW.exe
22:42:15.096: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] using helper (compatibility hook)
22:42:17.110: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] attempting to hook process: GRW.exe
22:42:17.113: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] using helper (compatibility hook)
22:42:17.115: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] hook not loaded yet, retrying..
22:42:19.144: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] attempting to hook process: GRW.exe
22:42:19.147: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] using helper (compatibility hook)
22:42:21.176: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] attempting to hook process: GRW.exe
22:42:21.178: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] using helper (compatibility hook)
22:42:21.180: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] hook not loaded yet, retrying..

Hence, I rolled back and used again the 19.0.2 version of OBS Studio and now, I can record again without issues:

00:54:49.229: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] shared texture capture successful

Here is attached the log file for the attempted capture of GRW with 19.0.3.

Does GRW use easyanticheat?

 

[Djidiouf]

Yes it's using EAC.

 

[Harold]

That's why. EAC isn't caught up on OBS versions yet.

 

[Djidiouf]

That's why. EAC isn't caught up on OBS versions yet.

Oh ok, is there a reason why it was working fine on versions of OBS Studio older than the 19.0.3? Did something specific has changed in the 19.0.3 in relation to game capturing?
The 19.0.3 just includes bug fixing but it seems to me that one of the bug fix also prevent the capture of games previously successfully captured.

 

[Harold]

EAC is on a whitelist policy and they haven't caught up to the fact that 19.0.3 has released yet.

Ok, that makes a lot of sense, thank you for your answer!
