Bug Report WarCraft III Game Crashing

[chusrubi2]

Since the last update (I'm not certainly sure it's the main reason), OBS crashes my WarCraft III when I'm trying to stream / previsualize.

The way I do everything:

- Run wc3 as admin.
- Game capturer, source war3.exe.
- Start OBS as admin, select correct Scene+source.
- Start previs.
- The game crashes with fatal error.


This wasn't happening before.

DX8 capture is not supported on Windows 8, unfortunately.

Too bad because it was working till last weeks (as you can see in the recorded videos)...

Ah, strange...I was just reading the error message in the log. If it was working before, then I don't know what's up.

Well, then tell me what to do so we can make a lil analysis of whats going on and what changed to stop working.

Well, you can try downloading 0.637 and see if it works with that: https://github.com/jp9000/OBS/releases/tag/0.637b

Trying tomorrow and reporting here. Let's cross fingers, otherwise xsplit will have to come back :[...


Edit: just tested it now. Same Fatal Error.

Thanks for everything!

Bumping just to let you know it's not an OBS problem, it seems my computer doesn't let any other proccess to "read" memory from Wc3 because it makes it crash.

It's very weird, I never had this error before... I've had lately graphic cards issue (a GTX580 died not so many days ago and I'm back to my old GT220).

I'm still invistegating this issue.

So the last time it was working was when you were using a different GPU?

The GT220 is a really old card and can't really be relied upon to perform the same way in game capture as a more modern card.

It was working with both, I bought 580 to a friend who I trust 100% and it suddently broke up (I bought a new power supply because it was needed so I'm investigating it but everything else works fine...).

I'm streaming with GT220 WarCraft III without any problems, but not in full screen due to the memory issue (which I doubt hard its about OBS).
