obs zoom in pip allowed?

[Smeagol07]

hi,

 

I can make a zoomed area on my monitor with obs where I can have the middle of my crosshair zoomed 2x, 4x or 8x. 

like I can make in the bottom right corner a 3x3 cm window where I can see the middle of my screen, but in 4x zoom.

is this allowed or not?

i would assume not as you are emulating the use of items (x4 scope or whatever) with an 3rd party program 

Then again if you wanted to you could have a physical magnifier over the screen and get the same functionality to some degree so i'm not really sure. (its the same argument as it being ok to use a hardware cross-hair that comes from the monitor not really sure on the validity of this one,  just because its an option does not free you from the expectation that you play by the rules)

But seeing as it would give you a massive advantage being able to effectively be scoped in and not at the same time as well as extending your engagement range above someone not using that program i would think that if its not explicitly stated in the tos it would not be covered under the ethics of fair play (no external one sided advantages) 

Use at your own risk without getting approval from a bsg staff member and even then be aware the rules may change at some point down the line. 

You should feel bad about using something like that anyway (is what i would say if currently using a scope didn't tank your fps and in some cases make it more of a liability than a high end aiming solution) once that get fixed you should once again start feeling bad
