Question / Help No Sources at All

I've done as it said, to open OBS up after a game is running, and I've tried it for Haunted Memories (steam download), Five Night's at Freddy's (steam download, and Minecraft (from the MC site). And no matter what I do, or how I do it, it will not show any of those games as sources. And it really is upsetting, because I was hoping to livestream to my friends.

Is there anyway to figure this out? .-.

This is what I get with starting a game and then opening OBS.

You need to right-click on the Scenes list, Add Scene, then right-click on Sources and Add->Game Capture as a source, selecting the process of the game in question.
Programs and other sources don't auto-populate into OBS.

Ferret. Let me just say I love you. That I totally. Love. You. I looked in all the guides and even had my friend who uses OBS try and help me. And nothing told me to do what you did. I love you, so damn much @.@

Cheers, happy to help. :)

Also, think of the 'sources' list like a deck of cards... anything on top will cover up anything below. So if you put a graphic on (right click, Add->Image) or webcam (right click, Add->Video Capture Device) and it's under your game capture, you won't see it.
Similar, you can rescale stuff and drag it around in the preview window by making sure the 'Edit Scene' button is clicked.
Have a good one!
