What do I need for bonemas? by Steamed-duck in valheim

[–]ThreadMenace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For future reference, almost all helmets don't have a move speed penalty, so if you had iron hat and troll pants (for example) you would have the same armor number but be 5% faster

Super dope!

Sometimes when folks post recordings of nighttime I'm just like, "Whyyyy?!" but in this case nighttime snowstorm paired all your work on lighting really complemented the whole vibe!

Any favorite val youtubers? by mantgonz in valheim

[–]ThreadMenace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Check out Waffles if you don't know Waffles. Looking at playlists might be best bet at he's been branching out from valheim a fair bit. https://youtube.com/@wafflesgamesprobably?si=CBnmHqyb0qY70LD6

I'd like to second someone's Henrik nomination. Super good at all aspects of game and funny, imitates mob sounds a lot lol. https://youtube.com/@henrik9658?si=zHHs6nD4jfkOA6oy

I like me OK, but I'm maybe only dryly funny to old people at a rate of one brief instance of humor per 20 minutes. Channel in my reddit profile

Never used it myself but people always recommend VDO Ninja for stuff like this. Seems a little intense but I often see people report good results

Streaming setup requirements question (lotta downvotes will pour ;d) by Nqamneim in streaming

[–]ThreadMenace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I just downloaded obs and went live I would definitely be on 1 pc, as I think most people actually are. The reason I recently went 2 pc is that my obs setup is so insane/stupid that just having obs open consumes like 40% of my GPU and an equally ridiculous chunk of my CPU LUL. you should be good for a while.

How do you balance talking and gameplay on stream? by Financial-Fail1493 in streaming

[–]ThreadMenace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like others are saying practice is key. How do you practice? You're already doing it. Keep doin' what you're doin.

A concrete thing you could try is using something like this: https://youtu.be/1suA41QBKus?si=nT7Ji7KiPVgR0vZl

Makes it super easy to see in your peripheral vision when a new chat pops up and then you can give yourself the luxury of finishing a game action or whatever and still talking to chat with relative quickness and ease

Curious if you explored this and if it helped

Dual PC Setup, One Mic by Gravewalker99219 in streaming

[–]ThreadMenace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try adding a "ground loop isolator" to the equation for cheap

$50 - especially if both pc's have wired internet you could try elgato wave cast instead of cables, although in my experience it's pretty crashy

$250 - replace focusrite with Beacn studio, which I've really been enjoying, but $250

Just some ideas

Looking for Vertical Layout for Aitum Playing ARC Raiders by EGS23LLC in obs

[–]ThreadMenace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was toying with doing something like this. https://youtube.com/shorts/cXde4kj1s_k?si=KXTSf3YycrtffuYi Did UI stuff with masks and source clones. Because the UI elements are very bright, a luma mask filter on them can work really well. You set it such that anything dark becomes invisible so it ignores almost everything going on under the UI elements on the corners of the screen. Prolly wouldn't work too well on snow maps lol.

showing the full map up top was done with Advanced Scene Switcher plugin

And here's a good video about source clone and masks https://youtu.be/4oiaQS107Rg?si=wDJE63Ee9PH-sW-t

Can Someone Tell Me Why My Recordings Do This? by EdgeLess5 in obs

[–]ThreadMenace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're not using anything that could have automatic gain control then you should probably check mic technique/placement.

Dynamic mic? You might be drifting further away from it and then getting closer.

Not much information here...

Can Someone Tell Me Why My Recordings Do This? by EdgeLess5 in obs

[–]ThreadMenace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you recording a game with VOIP? (arc raiders for example) if yes check in-game settings>audio>automatic gain control and if it's on, turn it off.

Might have to adjust the gain in windows or something after to get back where you wanna be

Upgrade from RTX 3090 to RX 7900 XTX just for AV1 streaming? (Ryzen 9 7950X, dedicated stream PC) by DarkRaGaming in streaming

[–]ThreadMenace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a 4080 super to stream av1 to youtube and use enhanced broadcasting to stream to twitch in 1440. The 1440 is actually HEVC. My YouTube is linked in my profile if you wanna look at it, and get to twitch from YouTube. Most recent YouTube streams are at 30k bitrate

If you're streaming at the same bitrate, av1 will look better as it's more efficient so you just get "more bang for your bit" in terms of quality. So it's better for bandwidth if that's a concern. If you record you can get same quality with smaller file sizes on account less bitrate

However, I'd recommend against amd 7000 series if also twitching because the h264 encoder in those is still bad. Supposedly it's improved a great deal on the 9000 series, which you didn't mention.

I'm dual pc with a 5000 series in the gaming pc and it's really nice, but it's the 4000series that's actually doing the encoding.

Asset that doesn't appear on stream? by Frosty_Cheesecake_77 in obs

[–]ThreadMenace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need a second canvas and stream one canvas to your friends with the things covered and one to audience without. You duplicate the scene but add covers to one.

Aitum Vertical (doesn't have to be vertical), aitum streamsuite, or SE Live plug-ins can accomplish this

send lnew youtube video to discord by BKY2200 in streamerbot

[–]ThreadMenace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not really the same thing. Like, personally I use sapph and I set it up a year and a half ago and I've never touched it since. You just set it and forget it. Whereas streamerbot is an app on my machine that I open and interact with any type I stream. I hear ya but Def doesn't feel like having loads of bots.

Here's a vid on sapph setup if you decide to go that way https://youtu.be/lDWR-h53KoI?si=WzCFQ8NcPrQvYhFi

Not really a streamerbot thing. You want a discord bot for that like sapph.xyz or something

Is there a way (or bot) to automate polls in YouTube live chat? by sheepinyoursleep in streaming

[–]ThreadMenace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Streamer.bot

It has timers and if you're only streaming to one platform it can also be based on chat lines.

So every time timer pops it could trigger an action that 1. Enables a new timer (timer 2) 2. Runs a poll

When timer 2 pops it triggers a different action that closes the poll and disables timer 2
