Dear UnityHQ members,

I have posted this problem on the Steam forums aswell, but I wanted to share my questions with you here too:

I recently tried to stream the game 'No One Lies Forever 2', but this won't work.

In case I add the game to Steam as a non-Steam game and press 'Stream' on my guest computer, the host starts the game's launcher. I can see the launcher and I can hear the music playing. I cannot press any any buttons, but I can see the mouse moving on the guest's screen.

When I try to launch the game on my host and connect with my guest afterwards, I get a black screen, also hearing the ingame music and also seeing the game's special mouse cursor. All this for about 1-2 seconds, then the connection closes without any errors.

Does anybody know what I can do now? I have tried out multiple resolutions and grafic settings, with no positive result. Furthermore, it is not possible to launch the game windowed.

I also found out something very interesting. No One Lives Forever 1 and Contract J.A.C.K. (part 3 of the series) DO NOT work aswell. They show exactly the same behaviour.

Any help is appreciated!

if somebody experiences the same problem, please share your solutions.

Have never tried to add them but I'll give it a go and see if it works.

There's a bug with the Nvidia drivers and Steam's in-home streaming that is supposed to be fixed with version 378.72: http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4405. I don't know if this issue is applicable to the original poster's situation, but it is something to conside.

Thanks to you two. I have tried updating the drivers, with no success.

Eliteone, have you already tried it?
