OBS

[Gennesis X]

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?

Use "display" or "Monitor" capture in OBS instead of game/exe specific?

I use capture game window directly (always used it for any and all games).

To show the game in OBS use "Window Capture" as the source, and switch "Capture Method" from Auto to "Windows 10 1903 and up" (otherwise you get a black screen only).

The Steam Overlay won't open on the main game anymore as when we click "Play" on Steam, it opens up the CDProjektRed GOG launcher now, and then we launch the game from that Launcher. The Steam Overlay would only work on the game if it launched directly from the Steam launcher.

To fix Steam Overlay and RTSS in DX12:

Navigate to your Witcher 3 folder at : ...\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\The Witcher 3\bin\x64_dx12

Then you'll want to delete d3d11tod3d12.dll, restart the game and it'll work then.

I think this forces the game to run in DX11, no many point in doing it...

Well, i did this, and even OBS captured the game by the normal method (game capture instead of window). I dont know if this happens because of the DX11toDX12 thing.

I was having an issue getting the game to display on OBS this worked for me after restarting the game and OBS. Thanks mem!

There is NO file by the name of "d3d11tod3d12.dll" at all in ANY of the Witcher folders at all on the entire hard drive. What are you lunatics talking about?

You just dont know where to look, but following the informed path, indeed there is. But i learned that deleting such dll will fix some stuff and break other things, so its best to left it alone for now, since CDPR announced a fix is in the works and may de deployed soon.

When i typed up that copy/paste to try to assist with overlays not hooking properly last night during the flurry of forum posts i was trying to recall the file name off the top of my head instead of going digging for it, its proper name is d3d11on12.
most users were able to figure it out based on my misspelling, but indeed when removing or editiing files you want to be sure you have the correct one.

that said, remove or change file at your own risk of course. It doesnt seem to break anything from what others have said, dx12 still works, but it is a dx11 to 12 wrapper and if they game needs to make a dx11 call or fall back to a dx11 instruction it may fail.
I did not extensively test it further than 'does overlay work, do RT options show up in menu, does it load to in game (bathtub scene)?, yes to all three', and then i closed the game'

Thank you this worked for me. After this, I was able to game capture the witcher 3 on Dx12.

Brilliant. Worked. Auto Game capture works in Streamlabs and OBS now. Renamed the DLL to .old without removing it.

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!
