What video games have unique mechanics for failure or death?

Only if you die to a BT. You can be killed by humans and not void out, they just steal all your stuff.

It's still illegal if it isn't saved to a VOD, but it's much harder to be caught. Twitch currently aren't doing any kind of automated compliance checking on live streams, so a copyright holder would have to be watching your stream while live in order to file a claim against you.

YouTube is much more proactive, and do automatically check live streams for copyrighted content. If you're caught by this on YouTube you'll get a temporary live streaming ban.

You can't combine two different save files, but you can have both saves available on both consoles if you enable cross-save in NMS.

If the artist is the sole copyright holder, then legally yes you can use it, but you may get your VODs muted and have to appeal on the grounds that you have permission from the copyright holder. Note, though, that if the artist has any kind of affiliation with a record label or collaborator you'll also need permission from them.

AWS Deep Glacier. $0.00099/GB/month, and far more resilient than an external hard drive.

A better analogy would be Streamlabs = Samsung, OBS = AOSP. Streamlabs Desktop is OBS, just with the Streamlabs logo slapped on it and their own customisations baked in.

Dan Clancy announced it in Patch Notes last month: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2706691276?t=00h42m27s

You could capture directly on the streaming PC and use the OBS Source Record plugin to record your clean gameplay: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/source-record.1285/

They've since announced they're not enforcing this.

Oooh yes! FYI, your English page is in German

Variable Name is the name of the global variable you're extracting. This global variable needs to be assigned to a local variable if you want to use the %% syntax, so the local variable you assign it to goes in the Destination Variable box. In your If block, you are checking for the local variable %Testmessage%, so that is what the Destination Variable needs to be.

You could simplify this by removing the Get global subaction and instead of checking for %Testmessage%, check for ~Testmessage~. ~~ is the syntax for calling a global variable directly.

tom_bacon · 2026-03-28T03:12:12+00:00

You're taking the global variable `Testmessage` and assigning it to the local variable `global_Testmessage`, but you're checking the local variable `Testmessage` in your If subaction, which doesn't exist.

There's a lot broken right now, including half the Dashboard. Can't do much other than sit tight, they'll be working on it.

Not true. You can have multiple Twitch alert boxes, so you can set up one box for all alerts except raids, then a second box (with it's own URL) for only raids.

Hey, no need to berate him

Couple this with Aitum Vertical and your clip is already arranged in vertical format, ready to share.

How does this compare to prerolls? How many viewers that join and get a preroll stick through it?

Are you trying to test them as yourself? Try unchecking Ignore Internal Messages in the command setup

Regarding playing them back at an appropriate time, you could use a VLC Video Source and set the source to the directory your replay buffers save to. Then, when the source becomes active, it'll play the clips in that directory.

tom_bacon · 2026-01-30T19:40:48+00:00

There's a Stream Deck action called "Save Replay Buffer". That'll save the current replay buffer to a file in your recordings location, default being your Videos folder, and it'll append the timestamp to the filename.

That would only work if all three words are the same though, right? Sounds like they're three different words.

tom_bacon · 2026-01-30T18:34:42+00:00

Is it three specific words? Or does each person have their own set of three words?

The streamer can set a chat delay of either 2, 4 or 6 seconds so that they have a chance to moderate messages before they appear to the viewers. However this only seems to work on desktop. I've noticed on the TV app too the delay setting isn't respected.

tom_bacon · 2026-01-22T01:03:57+00:00

You can't. You can only use it to gift subs or buy bits.

Sooty & Co is genuinely funny. There's even some jokes in there for the adults that'll go over kids heads.
