I cant figure out how to get the new ingame overlay working. I enable the ingame overlay, enter my character name and hit start. Then I start planetside 2, log in and it's still not there. Am I doing something wrong?
Ok... I guess I forgot to do that :P It works now! Thanks!
its still not working for me. do i have to open PS2 as an administrator as well?
This seemed to fix the issues I was having getting it to run. I was running PS2 through steam and having no luck and crashing much more than usual. The simple solution is to run the game from outside of steam and run it as administrator. That seems to have taken care of the problem. I would give that a shot
EDIT: So this didn't actually work as I thought and caused problems with the mumble overlay. Currently not running the overlay to get things working

like i get the login sounds. but no actual visuals
So you're starting the recursion client first as administrator, then the PS2 client, and you're not seeing an overlay?
To answer your question, my guess is yes. We have administrative access so we only ran into the admin issue when we gave it out last night. If you can try some different scenarios for troubleshooting that'd be helpful, but go with the assumption that administrative rights is required. Once we understand the requirements we should hopefully be able to code logic in to check for it.
Seems pretty smooth, for recording purposes, does the overlay pipe out through the same window as PS2. For instance, in open broadcaster, if we have ps2.exe set for game capture, will it grab the overlay?
