Hi, I've recently gotten into OBS to do some livestreaming for my sports group's events, and have found it immensely useful. However, there are some small things that I would like to tweak, and I am interested in learning programming.
I have some background in programming small projects on the arduino/making simple windows apps, but trying to get into making an OBS plugin has been quite difficult for me so far. I can't seem to find a ground up tutorial on how to start making plugins for OBS studio. What I could find assumes some basic knowledge of C++ (which is have some knowledge, maybe I'm super rusty) but I don't really know what software I need, or how to get started.
After trying to look for info on where to start, I got Visual Studio and tried to copy some code from github to make a .dll file, but have run into problems of the libraries not being available. In previous projects, all i needed to do was to add the libraries in my IDE, but now I am completely lost.
Would anyone be kind enough to enlighten me on the rough step by step process to create a plugin? I probably don't need it to be too in depth as I can probably find out how to do some stuff on my own if I'm given a direction, but currently it seems like tutorials are omitting major steps between starting from scratch to looking at the plugin documentation.
