I was told by moderators as long as you show what emulator you are using at some point in the run, it's ok. I did not want to have to download OBS classic so I just showed my entire display at the end of the run.

Thanks Alaris_Villain for clearing that up! I really appreciate it.

So I opened up OBS to make this change, and I am having issues find out how to capture my game and show the top bar that has the name of the emulator and all that. Basically asking the question again, if i just show that I am using project 64 1.6 in the beginning and then switch to game capture/window capture, will that be allowed?

Nothing wrong with using emulator, just follow the emulator rules obviously, I like this new rule.
