OBS
Cannot hook it on OBS Studio, the steam overlay wont open on the main game, only on the RED Launcher.
Any suggestion on how to capture game with OBS?

Unfortunately, with or without the DLL as soon as I activate RT the game crashed. Somewhere I set a setting that blew something up. It worked for 4 hours, then I got to fiddling with graphics settings to get more FPS and broke it. Different topic though!

(Oh - just bin the user settings in My Documents and the game launches and doesn't crash after you hose up all the GFX settings.)

In the end, i left the game as is, and captured the game window, instead of the game process, configuring the option to windows 10 something. It worked. Waiting for the fix now.

The file to rename or delete is WRONG. The correct file to rename or delete is named:
"d3d11on12.dll" NOT "d3d11tod3d12.dll" as this latter file no longer exists at all in the Witcher 3 folders

Here are the COMPLETE steps to fix this.

To fix Witcher 3 (with Next-Gen 4.0 Patch) running in OBS 28.1.2 in DX12 mode:

1.) Navigate to the Witcher 3 folder at (default Steam and Witcher installations locations):
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\The Witcher 3\bin\x64_dx12"
2.) Then you need to either rename or delete "d3d11on12.dll"
3.) Restart the game and it will work then.

You're welcome!
Thanks to SaburMoto on the OBS "Windows Support" Forums who discovered this SPECIFIC file. He rocks!

Because CDPR deleted this file after first hotfix, that's why you don't need to do it anymore.

Capture window directly. Open the game and instead of capturing by game, capture directly the game window. DX 12 have a little issue capturing.

BTW. Obs is great for streaming, but for gameplay video recording better to use shadowplay from nVidia geforce experience, is less demanding
