Bug Report DotA 2 Crashes when I press Stream or Preview Stream

[BL00DLocK]

Whenever I have DotA 2 open and I press stream or preview stream on OBS it causes my DotA 2 game to just crash. I am not sure why it is doing this because it was working fine 2 days ago.

If you're using game capture and you get this, this means that there's undoubtedly a conflicting hook program active. Another capture program, such as fraps/etc, or an overlay program such as teamspeak overlay and such, or graphical modification programs such as sweetfx. Sometimes vendor programs such as MSI afterburner can cause this to happen as well. All these things can interfere with game capture and cause a crash in the game itself when game capture tries to activate. See if you have any of those programs running, and if so, turn them off.

I am not using any of these other types of programs

It only crashes when I play DotA 2, no other game does this issue occur.

If you disable the Steam overlay does it still crash?

It still crashes when I disable overlay :(

I'm not entirely sure unfortunately, I've tested this game and valve games pretty extensively, and people use it with these games fairly often as well. I can only tell you what I know based upon past experience with this situation, in that there's some sort of conflict most likely, I'd really have to be on the computer to know for sure at this point in time
