TRANSCRIPT EXCERPT
Hey what’s up everyone, it’s Derek from Nerd or Die, and you’re looking at Uplink - our latest stream pack which features alerts and events lists, with overlays and more coming soon. The alerts feature 3D effects, full customization on colors and fonts, custom sounds synced to each of the 7 individual alerts, and the ability to change languages as needed. The event list let’s you change colors, fonts, and opacities to help you fit this widget to your stream’s design. Uplink is available now in the Nerd or Die shop, the event list and alerts work with Streamlabs and support Twitch, RUclips, and Mixer.
In this video we’ll take a look at setting everything up and take a look at all the options included. Please use the timestamps in the video description to jump around the video. One thing I want to quickly mention is that if you’re using a lower end CPU, you may want to consider disabling the 3D effect, as this does tend to use more CPU. Luckily, it’s very easy to do so.
Anyways, let’s get right into it.
Let’s start with setting up the alerts. This can be done very quickly with our Streamlabs quick setup link.
Once you’ve downloaded and unzipped the files, open up the alert folder. You’ll see a few folders and links. You can use the READ ME link to get written instructions on this pack, or the support link if you have any support requests. We've included a folder with the sound files as well - please note that these sound files are named based on the Twitch versions of each alert. Let’s open up the Streamlabs - Alerts folder to get started with the installation.
Click the Alerts Quick Setup link to begin installing these alerts.
If you’d like, choose “Create Widget Theme” and name it something appropriate such as “Uplink Alerts”. The import link will only override your alert package. This means you combine these alerts with any other scene collection you’ve made in Streamlabs. If you want to save your old alerts, it’s highly recommended to do this in a new profile.
Select “Use” for the profile you want to import into.
Navigate to “Alert Box” and copy your unique URL.
Paste this URL as a “Browser Source” in your streaming software. We recommend setting the size to at least 800 wide and 800 tall (more height is recommended if using messages). If you need to scale down, you can do so directly inside of OBS Studio.
Once you’ve added this into your streaming software test the alerts to make sure they’re working properly.
If things aren’t working properly, there’s a chance that your streaming software isn’t up to date. Streamlabs OBS has an auto-updater that should work fine, but if you’re using a certain version of OBS Studio, you may need to re-download and reinstall. On their website, OBSProject.com, you can see that they mention this issue at the top of their homepage. Make sure you’re on version 21.1.2 or higher, or else look at re-downloading.
Also, I want to point out that if you run tests too quickly, it may interfere with the appearance of the alerts. This is only an issue when testing the alerts, as the live versions don’t override one another.
