Worms Armageddon, Directx9 and OBS studio: Fatal Error

[spikespiegel]

I'm getting a Fatal Error every time I use alt tab twice while playing and using OBS Studio do capture the game's screen.

WA caused an Access Violation (0xc0000005)

I suspect it's because of "graphics-hook32.dll", but I have no idea on how to fix this.

Wait until 3.8.

Game capture stopped working for me recently as well.
Display capture is the worst and you don't want that (cause it captures all of your alt+tabbing and monitor screen instead of only ingame). For this type of capture, you don't even need d3d9wnd.
Window capture is what you want to enable down there in sources. It works without trouble.

Let me know was it successful.

Note: if you try window capture without d3d9wnd module, it will only capture your screen during menus. When you enter the game, obs pic will stay freezed. Gl.

How long until version 3.8?

I use game capture. Same thing that I do to every game and it works in every game, but in worms there's this access violation problem.

I always use display capture, I personally find it better performance wise than game capture, I do game from a PC and stream on a laptop via a capture card though so I don't really need to alt tab or anything.

The problem I have with WA though, while streaming via OBS, it's just a blank screen until a game actually starts, everything in the menus says no signal found, but that doesn't bother me too much tbh I can just go to another scene in the meantime.

Of course I wouldn't complain if I knew why or could fix it but I honestly don't play WA enough to worry about it anyway.

Have you tried what I told you?

Not interested. But thx. I already knew that it's possible to capture the entire screen and that's the method I used to use when I was still learning how to use OBS, but today I need my stuff to stay anonymous while broadcasting to the entire world.

He meant window capture. It doesn't capture the entire screen. For that you need to run WA in windowed mode using D3D9Wnd module.

I get it now.  Just tried it and it worked. So far so good, although I still have to using Control + T twice to unpin the mouse. But now the window is too small. Is there any way to set a custom size without use SuperFrontend?

[spikespiegel]

Alright, I'm supposed to use "wkLobbyCmd.dll", but I don't know how to use the command. I'm inside CMD window and it's not working.

Game menus have 640x480 resolution and you can't change that without SuperFrontendHD. You can stretch the 640x480 resolution to fullscreen by enabling 'Stretch' in D3D9Wnd module's frontendsettings. If you enable 'Fullscreen', it will stretch to fullscreen while keeping the 4:3 aspect ratio (so you will have black bars).

Alright, I'm supposed to use "wkLobbyCmd.dll", but I know how to use the command. I'm inside CMD window and it's not working.

LobbyCmd only changes the in-game resolution. You can use it while in game lobby by typing /setres widthxheight.
