ShadowPlay not working with Eve

Exactly what the title says. I'm running in Full-screen mode (similar to every other game I use Shadowplay with) but I can't record Eve. The SP icon doesn't even show up in-game to tell me it's not supported as it does with other unsupported games.

I have a default install of Eve with only the resolution being changed: Has anyone else had this issue?

I was having the same issue as you described.

I figured out what my problem was though. Shadowplay only works if you are playing in fullscreen, not windowed or fixed windowed mode.

So if you have more than one monitor, as most of us do in this game, try switching EVE to be fullscreen mode under Display and Graphics.

(I know it sucks because you end up minimizing EVE when you click out of the screen, but that's just the way it works because Shadowplay is in Beta)

I managed to get it working - Shadowplay was turning itself off whenever the PC restarted, Booting up certain games caused it to start up too, which is why I never noticed it since i always start eve when my PC starts: Eve wasn't one of the games that caused it to boot.

Latest update seems to have resolved the issue.
