Live Streaming Guide

I had planned on writing this super, totally awesome guide on “How to live stream” for all of you until I actually found quite a few articles on it already. I mean why rewrite whats already written? Is that like trying to fix something that isn’t broken? So, without further adieu, I bring you my long list of links on how to live stream!

First thing you are going to need is a reasonably stable upload speed on your internet. It is recommended that you have at least a 3.0 upload speed. If you would like to check your upload speed, you can go to speedtest.net and pick an area close to your location. Just click on begin test and Viola! Its like Magic!

Obviously you are going to need a place to stream your beloved gamed play. I recommend setting up an account on twitch.tv. If you need any help with the settings in twitch you can always email me or send me a message on twitch.tv/goblinworks.

The next thing you are going to need is software. I know a lot of streamers have their own personal preference when it comes to the software they use, but I have found OBS to be quite amazing! Its super easy to use, takes less processing from your PC to operate and it is FREE!!! OBS Project

Which brings me to the next step which is this wonderful guide on setting up OBS for streaming on twitch. I found this on the Twitch site itself and it seems pretty self explanatory! Twitch Live Streaming Guide Just follow the steps in order and completely and you will be live in no time.

If you would like the awesome Goblinworks/PFO overlay please email me bonny@goblinworks.com and I will send you the file. We should have it on the site next week as well.

I have had some questions regarding xsplit. I used to use it and found it to be very taxing when playing any type of PC game. It took too much of my PC Powah!!! The streams ended up looking choppy, distorted and laggy due to that issue. The reason I suggest using OBS is because it was a lot easier for me to set up, maintain and the customer service is outstanding. On top of that is barely uses any PC processing POWAH!! so yeah, Thats my two cents.

If you are looking for a free alternative to XSplit, try Open Broadcast Software (OBS). Works just as good and it's free.

Also, lucky dog getting to stream alpha. Where do I sign up? =)

Looks choppy enough that it makes me feel a bit better about missing out. CBDunkerson looked a bit more like CBDrunkerson the way he was running into walls.

Was glad to see the main abilities are mapped to 12 buttons though.

*Looks at the 12 buttons on the side of his razor naga*

Yes that will work nicely.

I've been running a stream, and plan on doing it whenever I can: http://www.twitch.tv/oncallgm

Feel free to come stop by. Will be on for a while tonight.

So what is the official PfO game name for twitch?

So far i have found, Pathfinder Online, Pathfinder Online Alpha, Pathfinder Online - Alpha.

This was the first one used, I'd recommend everyone use this for future claritys sake.

The game on twitch should be Pathfinder Online. You can title the stream whatever you want, but lets keep the Game consistent. Its not going to be alpha forever.

Just a heads up, if people are running livestreams might be good to make sure that you have them set to archive. The two I did tonight are both archived on my channel.

Speaking of the live stream on Twitch, it is mentioned "3pm Pacific Time".

Is it PST or PDT ?

Thanks

We're in Daylight Savings Time now, so all times "should" be in PDT. Someday we'll all just use UTC, but who knows when?

Goblin Squad Member

Obviously that will be when we all live in 'outer' space.

My stream should be back up about 1630 PDT. Pharasma and Zog permitting, it will run until server downtime.

Goblin Squad Member

I'll be streaming as well at www.twitch.tv/sdshannons.

So, I have set up and (loosely) tested my stream. First time streamer, so... expect glitches.

Dak's stream was linked on MMORPG.com. Some of the posters were criticizing the graphics and character models. Other posters were defending it as early alpha.

Point being, the word is out. Most of the sites that follow MMOs now have comments. So go out there and talk to people, talk about the game. If you are having fun (I am and I am not even playing...I am doing diplomacy with other people who aren't playing either!), go talk about it.

Bonny Paz has been spotted all over the place in the last couple of weeks. Ryan has been posting on Reddit (likely others too). So it's moving. Get out there and support it!

Damn. I was trying to think of a pun yesterday, but all I could think of was "birch". I salute you, Guurzak. Now I must commit seppunku.

I'm committing Sudoku as we speak!

I need to search through my twitch.tv footage and find my interactions with you... The highlight thing works alright, but it doesn't appear to multiple clips very nicely (e.g. smahs a bunch of clips into one highlight video).

Grand Lodge PFO Community Manager

There is a site you can go to and pull your twitch vid so you can edit it however you wish and then upload it to like You tube..

Twitch Tools

Is this going to be a thing now? Youtube montages of how everyone kills the CM in game?

Only if you let it happen. You should seek advice on how to be better at PvP. Join us on TS.
