I noticed that Twitch allows you to embed their chat into a webpage or whatever. I wondered if it would be possible to have a mod integrate the Twitch chat into the game. Code: <iframe frameborder="0" scrolling="no" id="chat_embed" src="http://twitch.tv/chat/embed?channel=<CHANNELNAME>&popout_chat=true" height="500" width="350"></iframe> <CHANNELNAME> = replace with actual channel name or variable? Could I do it myself? No... no I couldn't.
Yes you could it sounds trivial. Actually if @LavaSnake or somebody else hasn't done it untill I'm home, I'll do it
Twitch also support IRC. It's sad that 3rd party server required to connect to it though browser. PS: Just find out that Twitch now using special token for IRC authorization, so I guess it's shouldn't be too bad to ask users to use it on external server.
I could do it but I'm a little busy with school right now. I'll try to toss it together in a couple days or over the weekend if no ones done it yet.
Are you able to log in to Twitch from that chat window? The PA UI is its own web browser, so it can't know whether you are logged in somewhere else - probably it's also isolated from PA's Twitch integration.
He was planning too Would be great cause I have issues with the iframe. Twitch Chat has some flash stuff in it so don't work properly.
You might have to see what domain PA.exe is posting from and update the CORS. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-origin_resource_sharing You could do this via a proxy of somekind. Let me know if you need assistance and we can knock this out.
Ah not going to do any work on this anymore. It will be done by the devs via the twitch api directly in game which is way better
Umm please no. I can't stream at 3500kbs 720p with no overlays or stream control via using ingame twitch. Copy their implementation or something but this is still a needed mod imo.
Actually it works with obs too. That's what meta was using to stream his last game. Then he enabled the twitch chat in game but didn't enable the twitch streaming in game. So he just went into settings > twitch entered his credentials and in dropdown box didn't enable streaming. So I think pretty much all use cases are covered in standard implementation.
