Updated the comment on that issue. `OBS_PLUGINS_PATH=/lib/obs-plugins OBS_PLUGINS_DATA_PATH=/usr/share/obs/obs-plugins/ obs` gets fade and cut to work - but segfaults on exit...

-.- well it looks like they dont care

can fix up with a patch for the dumb logic

https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/blob/master/libobs/obs-nix.c#L92

```
  struct stat stat_info;

  for (int i = 0; i < module_patterns_size; i++) {
    if ((stat(module_bin[i], &stat_info) == 0 && !!S_ISDIR(stat_info.st_mode) )
        && (stat(module_data[i], &stat_info) == 0 && !!S_ISDIR(stat_info.st_mode) ) )
      obs_add_module_path(module_bin[i], module_data[i]);
  }
```

first problem is bad plugins/dirs wipe old plugins. check if they exist

second problem they wont fix or say is a void issue for cmake vars

third is, shouldn't user supplied env vars override current plugins? basically the above fixed loop should go first, then the user provided stuff

add:

fwiw - this doesn't fix the double loaded plugins segfaulting on exit. it actually makes it more common because your plugins actually fukin load :)

fwiw - this doesn't fix the double loaded plugins segfaulting on exit. it actually makes it more common because your plugins actually fukin load :)

Comment:
-.- well it looks like they dont care

can fix up with a patch for the dumb logic (plus add hardcoded system directories i guess, see 'second' below)

https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/blob/master/libobs/obs-nix.c#L92

```
  struct stat stat_info;

  for (int i = 0; i < module_patterns_size; i++) {
    if ((stat(module_bin[i], &stat_info) == 0 && !!S_ISDIR(stat_info.st_mode) )
        && (stat(module_data[i], &stat_info) == 0 && !!S_ISDIR(stat_info.st_mode) ) )
      obs_add_module_path(module_bin[i], module_data[i]);
  }
```

first problem is bad plugins/dirs wipe old plugins. check if they exist

second problem they wont fix or say is a void issue for cmake vars

third is, shouldn't user supplied env vars override current plugins? basically the above fixed loop should go first, then the user provided stuff

Hardcodes plugin dir that's set at build instead of fixing cmake vars. Fixes loading duplicate plugin paths instead of on the deletion side.

This message is a bit misleading here: I do not **have** a .config/obs-studio/plugins. Also it's clobbered to extra `/` and `%module%/data` which can't really exist.

Comment:
@sgn thoughts?

Hardcodes plugin dir that's set at build instead of fixing cmake vars. Fixes loading duplicate plugin paths instead of on the deletion side.

This message is a bit misleading here: I do not **have** a .config/obs-studio/plugins. Also it's clobbered to extra `/` and `%module%/data` which can't really exist.

```

Comment:
Yup, OBS launches and records fine for me without the OBS_PLUGINS_PATH override (the segfault on exit stills happens when running with the override but it's a non-issue since OBS runs just fine without it) - perhaps this issue can be closed
