Question / Help Issue using Game Capture on Monster Hunter World: Iceborne (dx12 only) with Discord Overlay

[dfire]

Here's the OBS log: https://obsproject.com/logs/V_bawdm913gAadF5

Here's sort of what I was doing while the log was capturing:

1. Opened MHW in dx12
2. Opened after crashing, where it launched in dx11 mode (no issue)
3. Disabled Discord overlay
4. Restarted the game in DX12 mode
5. Game did not crash

If I try to hook the game during play, it crashes. If OBS is active while the game is booting up, I get the following error from MHW:

This issue only occurs when the game is running in DX12 mode.

The following settings are enabled in the game capture:

• Limit capture framerate
• Capture Cursor
• Use anti-cheat compatibility hook

If I do not have the anti-cheat compatibility hook, the game terminates abruptly without the fatal error pop-up.

If I disable the Discord Overlay, the game does not crash.

This probably isn't a high-priority issue since it's obviously a conflict with the Discord overlay/the anti-cheat MHW works, but I have not seen this issue mentioned when searching. I'm wondering if there is a way around this, because I do enjoy using both DX12 and the Discord overlay.

3rd party overlays are unfortunately a known crash source, there's no good way for two programs to try and hook the same functions.

Known Conflicts

OBS Studio - Free and open source software for live streaming and screen recording - obsproject/obs-studio

Usually, there isn't an issue in using the Discord overlay and OBS in other games (and in MHW when it's in dx11). I understand though that there's probably not a way to work around it.
