Changed the first property of game capture to be a "mode" list (with
"any fullscreen window", "specific window", and "hotkey").
When hotkey mode is set, it'll add a hotkey pair to hotkey settings to
activate/deactivate game capture. When the hotkey to activate is
pressed, it'll treat the current foreground window as the target window
similar to "selected window" mode; it'll keep trying to capture the same
window even if the window or its application closes/reopens, and will
continue to do so until deactivated via the deactivate hotkey, or until
a new window is set via the activate hotkey.
I've come to realize that it's probably not wise to deviate from the
original version's functionality due to the fact that the original
version works without issues. I'm wondering if some of the capture
problems have been due to the fact that the direct hook method (via
CreateRemoteThread) was removed, so I put it back in, made it default,
and added an option to use anti-cheat compatibility just like in the
original version.
This fixes an issue primarily with filter rendering: when capturing
windows and displays, their alpha channel is almost always 0, causing
the image to be completely invisible unintentionally. The original fix
for this for many sources was just to turn off the blending, which would
be fine if you're not rendering any filters, but filters will render to
render targets first, and that lack of alpha will end up carrying over
in to the final image.
This doesn't apply to any mac captures because mac actually seems to set
the alpha channel to 1.
The game capture 'Activate' button is likely to fool users in to
thinking it's not actually active if the game capture displays black, so
if it's active, rename the button to 'Reactivate' in order to sort of
hint at the user that it's actually active.
This adds the windows version of game capture.
New features:
- An option to hook any fullscreen application automatically (that
doesn't have borders) so that no specific window configuration is
required. Definitely a sorely needed feature
- An option to force memory capture for the sake of compatibility with
things such as SLI, multi-adapter setups (usually laptops), as well as
the ability to be used with the OpenGL renderer
- An optimization option to force scaling on the GPU before texture
transfer, reducing the transfer bandwidth (which is especially
important for compatibility capture)
- An optimization option to limit framerate to the current OBS framerate
to improve capture performance (mostly useful for compatibility
capture)
- An option to capture third-party overlays (such as steam)
- Logging improvements, game capture log will now be sent via pipe
instead of written to a separate file, making diagnosing problems a
little bit easier
