For capturing the game window without taking up the entire screen (this prevents me from using my twitch chat effectively + timer which I use for speedrunning, I could just have the timer overlap the game but I prefer not to obscure the screen cause it looks terrible).

Dxwnd works but it makes the game unstable so it's not ideal, since I might want to play the game for a long period of time. Having the game crash during a good speedrun would be pretty terrible lol.

I use the same ddraw.dll for Exoddus and I've never had any issues with it crashing, it's only Oddysee that does this (probably because the engine works differently in some way, but it only crashes on the scrabanian nests level consistently - if it crashes anywhere else it's not replicable from what I know).
