Am I the only one who didin't know this quick tip becuase I didn't see it anywhere online... So basically I downloaded a bunch of mods today for Stardew and when I went to record through OBS I noticed (after 55 minutes) that it wasn't capturing my game!! It was frozen on the loading screen and was only capturing hte audio... game was palying fine but it wasn't being captured. google had nothing to help, Reddit had many asking questions about this same issues but no answer to help. Finally I found a solution: you put stardew in window mode by pressing the overlapping squares in the top right of the game window. Then, you drag the side of hte game window to amke it larger and BOOM, OBS now captures your modded game! I hope this helps, and I'm sorry if literally everyone already knew this haha.
