Some Games won't stream/don't have the option

[Lofter]

I've installed Dragon Age Origins and Mass Effect on my Host, but the Option to Stream it is not available. Other games, like Neverwinter or Magic (or not Steam-Games) appear to be able to be streamed. Is every game supported? Or are there games, that can't be streamed?

Not every game is supported or streams well. Did you try adding the launcher instead of the game´s .exe file?

What do you mean by “appear not to be able to stream?”
Do you get a black screen? Nothing happens? I suggest watching the host PC to see what it does when it tries to start.
As those are Origin games you may need to try launching origin and then launching the game from in there. Different games may need different methods to launch them.

The Option i sjust not there, it just says "install" instead of "stream"

Ok I have Dragon Age origins in my Origin client so I can try it later and let you know if it works for me.
I expect it will.
How did you acquire Dragon Age? From Origin? From Steam? I dont think it is available in steam now, but it was years ago. Somewhere else? Please give more details. If you did not acquire it in steam, did you add it using “add a non-steam game?”

Are you in big picture mode? Or not? Under Install check more options. Is there an option to switch to the host PC?

I bought Dragon Age Origins UE through steam (DAO is still on steam, only DA2 and DAI are not on steam).
No, i am not in big picture mode

Change to detailed list. Hit the down arrow next to install. Choose your host device. That should do the trick.
If that doesn’t work you will need to include more details like a screenshot or something.

I think He means something like this. I used to be able to stream this game. But now half of my games are like this. and yes, Subnautica is very much installed on the host machine.

Check that the games you want to stream are updated on the host machine.

So yeah I'm having this issue now myself. I very much saw it but it failed to connect at one point and now it's not working. The funniest part is every other game is working just not a specific one.

And for the record; all games are able to be remote played if it's your own device. Per steams remote play FAQ. The only limiting factor is Remote Play Together. But standard remote play is ALL games. So don't give me that nonsense...
