Question / Help Max Payne 2 - God awful FPS lag when streaming with OBS

Buchtis · Feb 22, 2016

Basically as per title. Game runs fine but as soon as I start streaming/previewing the window it drops to about 15 FPS. Using 'Game Capture' as window and monitor capture don't seem to work.

Would be really grateful if someone knew a solution to this or has Max Payne 2 on Steam and could try it just to see if it's on my end.

Thanks.

Post your obs log.

Stop using monitor capture in Windows 7, it will kill your performance.

Buchtis · Feb 22, 2016

I'm not unless it's for an alert, should I be using 'Window Capture' instead? Will give it a shot and report back.

Edit - turned off 'Monitor Capture' get exactly the same shit performance as before. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Harold · Feb 22, 2016

Remove all monitor captures and re-enable aero.

Buchtis · Feb 22, 2016

Still didn't work.

Harold · Feb 22, 2016

New clean log from that attempt then.

Tried with x264 preset of veryfast instead of medium yet?

Buchtis · Feb 22, 2016

I have and both don't make a difference.

Buchtis · Feb 23, 2016

Bump.

Sapiens · Feb 23, 2016

It could just be an issue capturing that particular game. Older games can be a little quirky with capturing even when they can be hooked. Maybe try testing with OBS Studio and see if it performs better.

Buchtis · Feb 28, 2016

Will give it a shot but i've heard that OBS Studio isn't a complete product yet, would rather wait until it's complete.

Harold · Feb 28, 2016

It's more complete than old obs.

Buchtis · Mar 19, 2017

Tried this with OBS Studio 18.0.1 and the FPS problem is still there.

Harold · Mar 19, 2017

Provide a log from the studio session then.

Note that this is on a fresh install with the newest version of OBS Studio at this time. I've also tried to mess around with the games settings and various OBS settings, as soon as OBS starts to capture the game shits itself.

Harold · Mar 19, 2017

Remove display capture from your scenes and turn off multi-adapter compatibility hooking.
