Not capturing native Factorio #261
Description
Describe the bug
Game source black after starting Factorio. Tried with obs-gamecapture %command% and OBS_VKCAPTURE=1 %command% in Steam. On Plasma 6 and wayland option enabled in Factorio. Other games (proton) work without issues.
AFAIK Factorio uses opengl (not sure) and recording works when I run it via proton.
