GAME CAPTURE MODE: I set the game options to "Borderless window" but nothing shows up.. just black screen. No mouse cursor either.

However, when I set it to SOFTWARE CAPTURE and do window capture for dota, a image(dota maing screen) shows and mouse shows. But the problem is that the image is like a screenshot and nothing changes.

I have exact the same problem that this guy posted in a thread back in 2013, he didn't receive any help in his situation.

Thing is i tested with a game in an Android Emulator, and Game Capture works properly. You can check in the log that Capture hooks up to Memu and it works, yet when it tries to hook up to Dota 2 Game Capture just stops.

Dunno if this is somehow a bug or something.

Additional info:

I'm using my GPU for both OBS Studio and Dota 2.
It only happens in a Valve Game.
The game is set to Bordeless Window
You can use Window Capture, but as the fellow stated back in 2013, you just see a "screenshot"
I'm using dual monitors.
It is a desktop PC not a Laptop.

[SOLVED]

Vulkan doens't make OBS Studio work in Dota 2. You have to erase the "-vulkan" in launch options, then erase the Game Capture and create a new one. Thanks to Harold.
