Only dropping frames when in a game. Please help!

[Bruiserblues]

So up till about a two months ago I was able to stream with little to no dropped frames. Now when I go to stream, OBS only drops frames when I have a game running. I can stream just fine with Adobe Illustrator or Clip studio paint going. But when I open a game (rocksmith and noita) and try to stream them OBS just drops my frames and the bit rate goes to crap. I have tried the fixes in the forum but nothing changes for me. I am restricted to wifi.

12:34:26.501: Output 'simple_stream': Number of dropped frames due to insufficient bandwidth/connection stalls: 1487 (41.7%)

Dropped frames are 100% ALWAYS a network problem.
Wifi is very often the cause, and should never be used while streaming. You absolutely can run a cable, unless you are magnetically suspended in a glass cube. You can also look into Powerline adapters if a cable is simply inconvenient.
We cannot give you a magic bullet. Your network connection is the problem.

Then how can I stream Adobe Illustrator or another program with no dropped frames? Just so I can understand what is happening. Also prior to this issue the hardware and wfi were the same configuration but I was able to stream via wifi.

Unknown. I'd expect the extremely low-motion nature of Illustrator where nearly nothing on-screen changes with regularity would allow lower bitrates to be viable, especially if you're using adaptive bitrate.
But the fact remains, it is a network issue, and wifi is an extremely common cause as it is extremely susceptible to interference; it is meant for lightweight content consumption from mobile devices where dragging a cable around constantly would be unfeasible. It is NOT a replacement for running cables to workstations, especially in minimum-throughput-reliant and connection-stability-critical applications like livestreaming.

Your connection is the issue. The most common fix is to run a cable, and get off wifi.

Thank you for the reply. I appreciate your time explaining that to me. Have a great day!
