Help with streaming this game on discord?
For some reason when I try to stream it on discord to my friends they only see a black screen everytime. I can just stream my screen instead of the application itself but they won't be able to hear anything. Any suggestions

I always use the hotkey that I bound on discord for streaming the game. Have you done the same? I also play the game in borderless fullscreen mode.

I tried streaming the game while it was windowed mode instead of fullscreen and it somehow worked? That's a fix I found

Disable RTSS if you have it running. That causes a blackscreen in discord / OBS streaming.

You can only stream it in OpenGL without issues.

Its not on the menu. You have to run it with a command added to the end of the shortcut.

Really? They must have patched it out then. Because on release you could use the OpenGL renderer. I know because I did it. As I had the same problem with only a black screen appearing.

it was never patched in or out as it never had opengl support and it was always vulkan only

id abandoned opengl support in favor of vulkan for id tech 7, it's the only api it runs on

Well I didn't imagine it. So opengl code is in there and I used it. I don't care what you say.

LMAO that guy.
"I'll keep embarrassing myself but won't admit that I was mistaken."
It's all right pal, people confuse stuff sometimes. Eternal has never had OpenGL support.
id Tech 7 is Vulkan exclusive.

there's no opengl code in there and it's not usable

this isn't me saying it, it's reality
