Hi first of all thanx for this plugin its awesome and i use it daily. But it does not work when opening an instance of obs via -portable launch command. And what I mean is that it doesn't load. Every other plugin loads this is the only one that doesn't. Can this be fixed somehow? Again thanx.

Check if your version of the plugin is also portable or not ._.

I will explain what I told someone else who said something similar again.
You should NEVER install plugins into portable installs of OBS Studio using installers. Some, like DistroAV and Multi RTMP outputs place them into %PROGRAMDATA%\obs-studio\plugins.
To guarantee portability, OBS Studio run in portable mode ignores %PROGRAMDATA%\obs-studio\plugins, which is why OBS Studio in portable mode won't see plugins in that location. Instead, install and unpack the ZIP file which unpacks into the normal OBS Studio hierarchy.
And before the topic is brought up like the previous person I previously replied to did, %PROGRAMDATA%\obs-studio\pluigins actually IS a standard location. In fact, it is far safer to put plugins there than it is in the "normal" location. I gave a more fully-detailed explanation here.

Okay first of all I never said i installed anything via an installer. I always put the plugins myself from the zips. Second of all if you read what I said, I am opening obs in a portable mode using the "-portable" launch command from the obs shortcut. Meaning its opening a new instance of obs in a portable fashion from the already existing obs already installed. I did not install a separate version of obs. And the portable version sees all plugins except this one.

You can also create a file at the root of the OBS Studio tree called "obs_portable_mode" so you don't have to use that flag. If you use a command line in a command prompt window, you'll need to be in the directory where obs64.exe is. Doing a "Run..." dialog will work as well. If you use a shortcut, you'll need to add that path in the "Start in..." blank in the shortcut setting dialog.

this simply does not work for me. i am on steamos, created a plugins folder in my obs, extracted the tar.gz source code into it, restarted obs, and absolutely nothing happened at all.
