Failing to record older games

Hi!

So I've run into issues while trying to record the game Mad Dog McCree (1993) for the PC. I tried using game capture, but that failed to detect anything, so I used window capture instead. What ended up happening was that window capture would only the crosshair and HUD, on a purple background. Link here: https://gfycat.com/everlastingcheerfulbarnowl

I tried using window capture on both BitBlt and WGC settings, both of which produced the same result. The audio records perfectly fine however. After some digging, I think it's because the game runs in layers, so the HUD and crosshair are on one layer, while the moving background is on another layer, and OBS (as well as every other screen recording software I tried) fails to pick up the background layer. Not entirely too sure if this is solvable, but I appreciate any help I can get!

Cheers!

Can you post a log? I just looked that game up on Wikipedia, seems like the prequel to Red Dead Revolver :)

I just recorded a bit of failed gameplay during this log.
