I’ve wanted to record the sims 4 for YouTube, I’ve had problems with obs im the past for various reasons. The latest one is how laggy it causes my game to be when loaded. A week ago it was fine slightly laggy but it didn’t show up when editing the video and it didn’t cause frustration at how slow it was but now after downloading some new content for my game and cheanging the source because I forgot how to get the whole screen. It won’t work. I thought at first it was the games fault but when I close down obs it’s perfect it dosent have any lagging but as soon as it’s on in the background it’s a problem.
