  • Here's a concise step-by-step guide to making simple, customized alerts that look and sound like StreamElements, StreamLabs, or whatever you desire. I promise you this is both briskly paced and easy to follow. Trust in the Red Arrows.
    I did my best to highlight critical info and afford you moments to pause when you need to copy or check your work vs. mine. I did this with Streamer.Bot v0.2.2 (so it has the Triggers pane) and OBS 30.
    Come hang out at / thadeshammer
    You'll need Streamer.Bot installed and set-up for this video; here's SB's own very quick videos to get that done for you if you're not there yet!

    Brilliant video. I'm so impressed with how well you explained everything. And seeing you do things in such a practical way (such as duplicating show/hide sub-actions and then adding the delay afterwards) demonstrates the "real-life" experience you have that only comes in time with using the program. I was surprised how many tidbits I learned along the way, such as the difference in capitalisation of user and username variables, ability to copy/paste OBS transition settings. Enjoyed the video a lot, thank you!

    Great tutorial!
    I was about to ask "What if you have several scenes and want to use the same alert?" but I think I figured it out!
    You basically want to duplicate the visible/hidden actions and place them at the same location for all scenes.
    But perhaps there is a smarter global way of doing it.

    • @thadeshammer
      @thadeshammer  Před 4 měsíci

      I'm glad it was helpful! There's a few ways to go about it; I use a sort of "master overlay scene" that contains things like my alerts and my emote explosions and nest that master scene in whatever scenes need alerts on em...which is just a more contained (if more complicated) version of what you're doing! If it works it works! Nice work!

    Really great video man. Much appreciated. I'm hung on donations and anything monetary related. I can not get them to work. I was never able to. I used another persons (they offered them for free at the time) but they have since pay walled them so they no longer work for me.

    • @thadeshammer
      @thadeshammer  Před 4 měsíci

      Thanks for your kind words, I'm glad it was helpful. In principle the donation bit will work the same BUT depending on the provider you're using, you may need to take additional steps beyond Streamer.bot or OBS. (For instance, iirc, Ko-fi needs additional configuration on their site and you have to log into Streamer.bot's *website* and paste a key there, or something.)
      In general for me, if a thing seems like it should be working but it's just not, I will tear it down to its studs and build it back up from scratch, following whatever guide step-by-step slowly. In fact, I'm pretty sure I did that a few times back when I dipped into using Ko-fi. (I've since stopped using Ko-fi.)

    • @BeardlessWhelp

      @thetorvic23 Před 5 měsíci +1

      @@BeardlessWhelp hmmm, well then what's the url for the person that paid for the gift? Same thing? That's where I'm not sure because there is that %recipientId% thing too.
      In the sub-action, I did Get User Info For Target, then in the next pop up I did Source Type: Variable, Variable: recipientUserName (how he had it in his video). I guess we can start here, is this right?
      Cause then I do have OBS Set Browser Source Url and all that other stuff is correct.
      I'm new to streamer bot but I do know how to pull a single pfp 😅 just not the double pfp

      @@thetorvic23 Simplest way would be to Add target info from variable recipientUser, get that profile image URL to a new variable, then Add target info from who redeemed.
      Edit for future reader clarity:
      Twitch > User > Get User Info For Target > Source Type: Variable; Variable: recipientUser
      Core > Arguments > Set Argument > Variable Name: recipientUserProfileImageUrl (or whatever you want to call it); Value: %targetUserProfileImageUrl%

    • @thadeshammer
      @thadeshammer  Před 3 měsíci

      Sorry, life ate my content creation time! I use Audacity and trim the sound down to what I want it to be; I actually have in some cases multiple edits of the same audio file (different lengths of the Final Fantasy IV fanfare, different lengths of an applause clip, all in separate audio files) that I have fire off for different alerts. Not an elegant solution but it's concrete and easy to manage.

    I had some trouble getting different images to work per alert. I decided not to use the profile picture of the user, and only have my images in OBS.

      I keep considering making a video to drill into this specific point because it is a little tricky. Honestly, I wanted to bulk that out in the video but I was already out of utensils and time, the world is pretty nutso for me right now.
      Basically, you make the call for info TWICE in the same Action. You call and fetch one person's info, then land it into its own OBS source and local variable; then you call and fetch the second person's info, and land it into a different OBS source and different local variable. Since when you call the second time, you use the normal container variables and blow away the previous values, you gotta stow em someplace safe. Make sense?

    Is there a way to have streamerbot pull a random person from chat without having to write code for it?
    I tried doing the Add Random Users sub action, even left Present unchecked so I'm testing off stream, and even looked at the wiki and tried all 3 different variations listed online and when I test it, the message in obs comes up as the %% code.
    The weird thing is, when I go into the Action History, it shows that it literally pulled like 75 users perfectly.
    Do I have to be live for this to work? It didn't give me that notification that said I had to be.
    Might have to gift a sub on twitch next time I see ya 😅

    • @thadeshammer
      @thadeshammer  Před 5 měsíci +1

      I haven't played with it directly, but SB has Add Random Users and if you set that Count to 1 and check Present Only, I would expect this would pump in the standard variables (and if you want the extended ones, you'd have to call Get User Info for Target). Which variable are you not populating that you expect to populate?
      It sounds like you're just doing this for testing, is that the case? You could set static values for each for testing and see things happen (I do this by just injecting and then later disabling Core -> Arguments -> Set Argument).
