V0.12 (w/1st hotfix) and steam in home streaming issues.

First of all i want to thank the BeamNG devs for a wonderful game and I think they are really creating something special.

However, I use steam in home streaming a good bit so I can project my gaming PC onto our TV via a laptop running steam. It works well except for a few things.

1) When I begin streaming the resolution for BeamNG maxes out and the menu/play area becomes a small square in the corner. This not only doesn't look correct it distorts clickable areas so i have to guess where to click things to even change this. My resolution on both PC and TV should stay at 1080P but it changes when streaming.

2) It would be nice of the audio channel automatically changed so I could hear the game through the TV instead of having to change it in settings. This is made even more frustrating due to problem #1 above.

3) For some reason when v0.12 dropped my xbox controller won't work with the game from the laptop i'm streaming to. This alone makes the game unplayable through steam streaming for me.

This is a wonderful game and I hope this is food for thought as to what to address in the next hotfix.

Thanks!

 

Thanks for the reply.

I have attached an image of what i get every time i load up BeamNG to stream. I'd like to point out this started happening when v0.12 was released. The audio was the only issue prior.
The resolution changes to 2048x15xx. I can change the resolution but I have to change it every time I load the game which is not ideal. If you look at the screenshot you can see where the cursor has to be just to highlight the exit button. Settings menu gets hairy as you can imagine. I've tried safe mode. deactivating all mods. It just won't remember the last resolution i set. If i play on the gaming PC it's all fine. I have to reset the resolution once and if i play it again on the game pc it remembers. It's only when streaming.

As far as the controller, I have it plugged into the laptop i stream to. It worked fine prior to v0.12. The controller works fine when plugged into the Game PC.

On a side note I have noticed that before 0.12 when i loaded up to stream i would get the launch menu and would have to click 'launch game'. After 0.12 that doesn't pop up. It just starts with the wrong resolution. If that means anything.

Thanks
