Steps for Setting Up Your Stream

Capturing Gameplay

Start by creating a “Scene” in OBS Studio. This serves as a visual template for organizing your stream elements. Follow these steps:

  1. Click the plus icon in the “Scenes” panel to create a new scene.
  2. Name your scene appropriately, like “Gameplay.”
  3. Add a source. Choose between “Display Capture” if you are capturing on the same PC, or “Video Capture Device” for a console setup.

Setting Up Your Webcam

Adding a webcam enhances engagement with your audience. Here’s how to set it up:

  1. Add your webcam as a new source in OBS.
  2. Adjust the position and size of your webcam feed within the scene.
  3. Add a webcam overlay from the Content Creator Bundle to provide a polished look.

Building Custom Alerts

Custom alerts add excitement to your streams. To configure them:

  1. Log into your Streamlabs account and navigate to “Alert Box.”
  2. Select “Add Variation” to create a new alert.
  3. Upload the appropriate files from the Creator Bundle and configure their appearance and duration.

Use Halo-themed sound effects and adjust the alert fonts and colors to suit your style.

Utilizing Chat and Lobby Scenes

Create a lobby scene complete with a chat feed by following these guidelines:

  • Insert a webcam output.
  • Upload chat overlay graphics.
  • Configure chat settings in your Streamlabs account, copy the chat URL, and add it as a browser source in OBS.

Enhancements and Transitions

For a professional touch during scene changes, use the transition included in the Silver Anniversary Bundle. Here’s how:

  1. Access the “Scene Transitions” panel in OBS Studio.
  2. Select the “Stinger” option and upload the transition video.
  3. Adjust the settings for smooth transitions between scenes.

This will elevate the overall quality of your streaming presentation.
