Trayus Posted 48 minutes ago Posted 48 minutes ago Hello folks! I'd like to formally put out a request to have the castability (? streamability?) of the game, specifically KotOR 2, looked at and hopefully patched! Some background on the issue: attempting to stream KotOR 1 and 2 via programs like Discord and/or OBS is immensely challenging, at least while using the Snigaroo's mod builds. Streaming/recording results in either intense choppiness in the streaming program, or even a failure to render the game correctly in both the streamer and the game itself (an example of this happened today, where my KotOR 2 was visible on my screen while it was not in OBS; the mouse cursor however was visible in OBS, while it was not on my main screen with the rest of the game). Historically, the only way to work around this was to force the game into windowed mode via the .ini and make some alterations to the .exe through Windows (disabling fullscreen optimizations, setting it to run in Win XP SP3). As of yesterday, using the mod builds with KPM and Scaled Kotor, I was able to get KotOR 1 to stream in fullscreen! I believe that the Movies Patch*, Borderless Fullscreen Patch, and the Alt Tab Patch may also play a part in making this functional. However, KotOR 2 remains unstreamable, even with the edited .exe to allow it to utilize the Movies Patch (*which, as I'm writing this, suggests that that is ruled out as part of the solution for the 1st game). So I'd like to request that we put a lens on this to try to resolve it once and for all! I don't have the knowledge or the tools to develop a mod like this on my own (at least not right now), but I do have the means and the time to assist with troubleshooting and testing, and I'm more than eager to lend a hand in the service of fixing this!
