Played the first 15+ hours using D3D11 while streaming with no problems. Got towards the desert area, pirate stronghold and ever since the game will freeze/crash without warning, complete hang. somtimes every 5 minutes, 10, 20. No specific spot or action was triggering it either. have to alt+f4 and alt+ctrl+delete kill dolphin process to restart again.

So looking at task manager, using D3D11 + OBS to stream my cpu is at a constant 100% use. A drop to 60 or 70% for a second or so sometimes. Temps are always fine.

Switching to Opengl has kept the CPU usage under 40% or 50% constantly, and the freezing/hanging seems to have stopped so far. Playing on openGL, I've noticed sometimes a hit on a monster or anything in game might, sometimes, cause a sudden "freeze" for about a frame or half-a-second. This sudden freeze looks really similar to what happens in D3D11 mode, except it's only for half a second and the game continues whereas in D3D11 mode it seems like if it happens once, anywhere, randomly, the game/dolphin will lock

What steps will reproduce the problem?

If I turn d3d11 back on and play for 5-20 mins most likely

With opengl vs d3d11 for this game. Link seems to have a really hard time aiming his bow when using opengl. D3D11 the aiming is always fine 100%. In opengl sometimes, a lot of the times, it looks like link's arm/character isn't aiming right and doesn't shoot where the crosshair is aimed. I'm using the dolphin bar and wiimotion+ controls
