It just shows TF2 as a black screen, I can still see my cursor though.
I tried it both in full screen and windowed.

did you go into the game capture thing and make sure it was selecting tf2 (hl2.exe) or whatever game you're playing?

hl2.exe is a 32 bit application

Yep, its definitely set to hl2.exe

I don't have one called OBS 32 bit in my program files nor do I get that message.

I'm 90% sure the newest version of OBS makes 64bit version compatible with 32 bit applications, and vice-versa. However that might have been one of the recent test builds, not sure.

When you play in windowed mode, and use window capture does it work for you?

It does, but it lowers my ingame fps by a lot and I heard the Game Capture was just better.

Download the test build: http://sourceforge.net/projects/obsproject/files/test%20versions/OBS_0473b_test11.zip/download

There's two folders in the zip. You want the 32 bit one.

32/64 bit dosen't matter with comparability anymore. Make sure you have the latest version of OBS, it should work in either one.
