Hello all, I'll start this by posting my log file because maybe there's something obviously wrong:

I'm a simple man. I've been streaming fortnite for a few months now, but most of the time it won't work with full screen. I can only stream the game when they patch it and they make battleye the primary anti cheat. When EasyAntiCheat launches with my game, I always get black screen. I need to stream in full screen. No windowed mode, so that means no window capture. I've heard display capture destroys your CPU, but I can't even do that either. It shows my display until I open my fullscreen game, either Apex or Fortnite, then it goes black.

In fortnite, the only things I could do to circumvent this was editing the game files and stuff to force the game to launch with Battleye. The next step I could do is reinstall windows to hopefully set my registry to launch it with Battleye, but that's just a chance and it won't fix my next problem. They patched all my easy workarounds.

Now Apex comes out. Of course - it launches with easyanticheat too. I need to play in full screen to maximize fps, so no windowed borderless or anything. I'd rather not stream than play in windowed.

I'm hoping there's a real simple solution here? I don't understand how EasyAntiCheat could be such a screwy program.

I'm running three monitors, i7 5960x, and a gtx 1080Ti. 16GB Ram but i have more sticks if thats really a problem. The damn program just shows a black screen any time i try to stream one of these fullscreen games.

Just to add to this:

as of v8.0 fortnite patch i was able to use game capture to stream. however, the game patched again last night and I am unable to stream again. No one seems to be having these intermittent problems, or they are at least silent about it and suffice to using Windowed Fullscreen. Personally I'd rather not stream. Clearly this is a compatibility problem between my specific hardware and EasyAntiCheat and OBS.. so... gg's
