Twitch2DCS - Simple twitch chat UI inside DCS

@Breakshot if you mess up with twitch acc password (reset) or anything else you need to disconenct Twitch Chat OAuth Token Generator on your Twitch then authorise again and use new OUATH in DCS.

Still no joy! same errors. @Jabbers_

Anyone know when adjusting font size, the chat stops working? Where do I tweak the font sizes?

Quick note.  Possible unreliable or inconsistent bug...

I see this error upon starting DCS and it appears in the log.  I exit and restart DCS and I may not get the error the next time.
So completely random and I don't know of any way to create it on demand.
Just a heads up, or perhaps you know why this might appear?

I am getting the same thing, and unable to make the chat box appear.

I tried yesterday and appart of the same error, the twitch chat box appears and hide with hotkey.. BUT it doesn't show any msg from twitch. of course the key has the oAuth: before (or whatever is the word) because it is included in the key generation. And my user is just the name of the user.. not the full twitch adress... So I suppose it is broken because 2.8

Edit: I made it work. I pasted the key and an error appeared. I removed the *********** and pasted again and the error didn't appear this time. Exit DCS enter and now it is connected.

Thanks for this @Jabbers_ just got it working as I swapped from streaming 2D TrackIR to VR. Super easy to setup

Not sure if this has been mentioned before, but I'm facing some issues that I don't know if anyone has already pointed out. The thing is regardless of whether or not the Mod is enabled in the Special tab of the Options window, it's always on. And regardless or not the chat box is displayed, the box seems to block whatever is behind it, so for instance, I can't sort the server list by ping if the chat box is in the top left corner, because it's blocking it, again, regardless the status of the box (enabled/disabled/shown/hidden). Is there any fix to this or is it just the way to be?

Plan B: how do I uninstall this?

Hi @Jabbers_ ,
I'm not sure if this a bug, or how it is meant to be, but after I unlock the box, move it and re-lock it, the box stays in place, but after a DCS restart, the box moves back to the 0,0 position in the top left. 
I was under the impression that if you move it and lock it, it stays there, but it doesn't after a restart. Is this normal? If not, it looks like the options is not saving my new position.

If this is expected behaviour, how can I move it to the top right instead?

Cheers

Hey folks, does anyone has an idea how to change the message color? Can´t find anything on how to do it, only that it is possible.

thx in advance

have a good one!

I had the same problem, which was pretty random.

I posted on the github a possible cause/solution https://github.com/jeffboulanger/twitch2dcs/issues/13

Current Features

• Ability to use Multiplayer chat instead of Twitch chat. Using Multiplayer chat will only allow you to see twitch chat during multiplayer games.

 

Was this feature removed? It's still listed in the readme, but I'm not finding any references to it

Sorry for being the noob in the room - but how do we move the window in VR? My little blue cross cursor just passes over it, and I cant seen to click/drag it anywhere.

You have to uncheck this box in Options -> Special:

Sadly, it is.

That's weird, that's what I do to move it around: 2023-10-27 09-44-46.mkv

Thanks for the demo - yeah it works on desktop for me too - just not in VR.
