Twitch2DCS - Simple twitch chat UI inside DCS


Recommended Posts

Yes i know but for others it is already working. I just wanted to share the information how the problem looks like for me.

 

I'll assume that he'll keep a "legacy build" that supports older versions of DCS. But it is 100% not working with the new DCS versions, they must be running older versions of the sim.

Great stuff just in time for it to break when 2.5 releases ;)

 

In theory, the update that broke it was in prep for 2.5, i dont think it will break again, I'm hoping to be able to test it before wednesday tho... life getting in the way right now though.

Awesome tool! Works great in 2.5. Is it possible to make it so the text fades out after a period, say a few minutes? It's a little weird to have one person's comment up for an entire stream.

I toyed with this, was really annoying, especially if you missed the comment. I just bound a key throgh joytokey to my hotas to open close it.

 

Do you also have the cursor arrow almost always present ?

Never experienced this.

 

Installed the latest version and getting both the "module" icon and tab in settings but my page is completely blank in settings? 2.5 bug?

On the attached screenshot you can see the basic cursor that never disappear even when the DCS cross is hidden.

Twitch chat backend uses IRC (Internet Relay Chat), but all other services use some form of HTTP chat. IRC is simple to read via LUA, HTTP isn't (I asked Jabbers the same question a while back as I stream on Mixer, but I can't stream DCS there for this exact reason).

@Salsam ya sorry, http just requires a bit more work then I want to put into this right now. With the addition of the Core 2 stuff Oculus just put out, it kind of negates a reason for this project, as you can have any window from your desktop you want now visible in game

Well, for those few of us still under Win7, Core is not really useable, and twitch2dcs is very usefull

The instructions say to edit a file that does not exist. ""Config/Twitch2DCSConfig.lua""

 

It isnt in the Package to install either.

 

I am running DCS 2.5.2.20601 and Twitch2DCS version Twitch2DCS v1.0.3-beta.

 

Errors recieved when loading into DCS are:

 

[string "C:\Users\OzDeaDMeaT\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Scripts\Twitch2DCS.lua"]:236: loop in gettable

 

[string "C:\Users\OzDeaDMeaT\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Scripts\twitch\server.lua"]:69: calling 'receive' on bad self (tcp{client} expected, got userdata)

Update, i think i found out why it did not work..

I ofcourse had to unzip it and I did that correctly, and i also ingame under the settings special tab enter my twitch name and code.

However I did something wrong with the code.

 

You have to

 

 

I am having a similar problem.. I unzipped the zip file.

But i also cannot find the file.

Instead i start dcs and go to option and press special and there i enter my twitch name and stream code.

 

In step 2 i say

Start DCS and go to Options -> Special -> Twitch2DCS and input your username and Twitch oauth key from TwitchApps.com make sure you include the "oauth:" text. (You may need to restart DCS after this)

 

After i visit the website and enter my twich stream code and generate the require new code then i did not longer get the below error code on my screen..

 

-------------previous text ---------------

 

When i start dcs i vr i see the chat message but it do not relay the chat from my stream ( exampple if i write test then it do not see test ingame )

I only see the twitch UI in the top left corner.

 

I get this error in the main menu of dcs

[string "C:\Users\your-name\Saved Games\DCS\Scripts\Twitch2DCS.lua"]:236: loop in gettable

 

 

maybe i did something wrong :)
