Ruining It For Everyone Else Since 2004
Revisiting the old Tomb Raiders.

Revisiting the old Tomb Raiders.

I’ve been toying with the idea of recording some classic Tomb Raider sessions (2 through 5), and the possibility of streaming them on Twitch and YouTube. I do seem to have issues with the classic versions and OBS, since they use an earlier version of Direct3D (pre directX 9) I have no choice but to record the entire desktop. I’ve experimented a bit with recording all of the desktop and it doesn’t seem to take much power. There is still streaming it to my laptop and then streaming it publicly from there as a possible solution.

Another problem I notice is that on a vanilla setup on any of those games is being unable to run them on any resolution above 1080p. The game setups give me the option to run at 1440p but they fail every time they launch. I would think someone by now would have come up with a workaround, but it’ll take more research. I’ve already installed the multipatch, though that doesn’t seem to solve the problem. I don’t mind playing at a lower resolution, but if there is an option out there that would allow me to play in my native resolution I’d happily welcome it. :happy:
