After I updated OBS. Elden Ring won't show up in my Game capture. All I get is a tiny red dot. I can't even pull! All my other games works as normal!

Also having this issue since the recent update. I've tried all the other fixes I've found in other forum posts, including basic steps like running OBS and Steam in Administrator mode, making sure the EAC compatibility hook is selected, allowing 3rd party software in the Steam Launch Settings, tried using both Game Capture and Window Capture and neither one is capturing Elden Ring, just black screens. Other games capture fine, but not Elden Ring

I'm also having this same problem. Much like the comment above, I have tried the same things to no avail, mostly. Using display capture works, but ultimately makes things choppy, which is not acceptable.

I can say that when launching/capturing Elden Ring with the Seamless Co-op mod, this issue doesn't occur whatsoever, so it is likely an issue with EAC and OBS conflicting.

Any update on this would be nice. Thank you.

Code:
13:36:59.439: OBS 31.0.1 (64-bit, windows)
...
13:41:49.072: [game-capture: 'Game'] attempting to hook process: eldenring.exe
13:41:49.076: [game-capture: 'Game'] using helper (compatibility hook)
13:41:49.101: [game-capture: 'Game'] hook not loaded yet, retrying..
You likely suffer from the hook's library update. New OBS shipped with new libs. You may try to run older OBS.

Ok, thank you. How would I go about turning back OBS to it's previous state or getting my hands on an older version?

You may try portable mode first (please, read only after "if it was not clear" words): https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/crash-with-«could-not-find-locale-ini-path»-when-opening-app-settings.82157/post-346499

Don't forget to export/import Scene Collections and Profiles (main menu of OBS). And keep backup copy of your profiles and scene collections, just in case.
I really want it FIXED! This is INSANE! What was the new update supposed to do anyway? Instead of BREAKING Game capture?!

same thing happened to me after the latest update 31.0.1. now if you wanna record with OBS you're gonna use window Capture and in its setting choose Elden ring in "Window" ( Btw Elden ring won't show if in the game graphics you don't choose borderless window).. let's continue and choose Window 11 in the "Capture method and in Elden ring settings/Graphics in the screen mode choose Borderless windowed and you should be fine. For me I noticed if you turn off the Ray tracing the quality with OBS should be good though further testing is needed. BTW I used to record with gaming capture till the latest obs update and it stopped working sadly button I do what I shared here and it works just fine with good quality.
