Bandicam Forum

Hello,

I have a hooking issue in the witcher 3. It randomly lose focus (can be 5 minutes or 15) and I'm not able to record or screenshot the game until I alt+tab (tw3 to desktop to tw3).

I tested on fullscreen and windowed fullscren, same issue. (Game recording mode, didn't try screen recording mode)

Thanks

Update here, bandicam lose focus as soon as I left click ? what is this sorcellery ?

Okay, I reinstalled Bandicam 1.0 and it works well, it lose focus only on the last version (3.1.1)...
Problem solved I guess...

Hi,

Thank you very much for your feedback.

Do you play Witcher 3 on Origin?

Please uncheck the "Enable Origin In Game" and try it again.


Please let us know your result.

Nop, I play it with Gog Galaxy (without the overlay) and the bug has return, even with 1.10

Hmmm, there is something fishy with the "run bandicam on windows startup". If I use bandicam who has launched with windows startup, it will lose focus (only) in tw3 as soon as I left click. But if I quit and relaunch bandicam, it works as intended. Strange :d

Edit : So I managed to bypass the problem, instead of choosing "run bandicam on windows startup", I've added a .bat in shell:startup (since windows won't let me add something who require admin right to launch in this folder) with the command : "Start "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Bandicam\bdcam.exe"" So its still launch at startup but the problem is no longer here.

I believe it's the DX11 "problem" and/or 64-bit "problem".

Newer games such as Witcher 3 are 64-bit and runs on DX11. Bandicam either doesn't show up or record when you run Bandicam FIRST. You need to run the game first, then alt-tab out to start Bandicam for it to hook into the game.

Also, if you run Witcher 3 (or any game) in "Borderless Window" mode, Bandicam won't record unless you put it into recording a window mode/desktop mode.

In some cases, running Bandicam BEFORE running the game will cause the game to crash on startup, such as Alien Isolation.
