How to setup

These are instructions for regular OBS Studio, but I imagine you can do the same with other streaming software:

• Get the latest release.
• Extract somewhere.
• Drag and drop Game Scoreboard.html into OBS, or add a new browser source in OBS pointing at the local file.
  • If the source looks weird, manually set the source's properties to 1920 width and 1080 height, or set your OBS canvas resolution to 1080p, or make the source fit the screen.
• In the source's properties, change Use custom frame rate -> 60 (if streaming at 60fps of course).
• Also tick Refresh browser when scene becomes active.
• Manage it all with the RR Stream Tool executable.

Repeat from the 3rd step to add the VS Screen.html, though I recommend you to do so on another scene.

Interface shortcuts!

• Press Enter to update.
• Press either F1 or F2 to increase P1's or P2's score.
• Press ESC to clear player info.

Other things to know

• When changing the gamemode (for example form singles to 2v2), or updating custom colors, a browser source refresh is needed.
• The Scoreboard's optional intro will only play when refreshing the browser (so when changing scenes).

2 basic transitions are included in the Resources/OBS Transitions folder, if you don't have a transition yourself of course. To use them on OBS:

• Add a new stinger transition.
• Set the video file to Game In.webm or Swoosh.webm.
• Transition point -> 350 ms.
• I recommend you to set the Audio Fade Style to crossfade, just in case.
• On the scene's right click menu, set it to Transition Override to the transition you just created.

The interface will also update basic text files with the match info at Resources/Texts/Simple Texts/ so you can add them to OBS with ease.

Customizing stuff

To add a new player preset, go to Resources/Texts/Player Info/ and create a new file with the name of your player. You can use the existing file as a template. You can add as many characters as you want in the .json file.

For the overlays, there are PSD files for both the game scoreboard and the VS screen to help you customize them.

If you want to add a new character:

• Add your character assets in Resources/Characters/. For the poster assets, it is recommended that you use the same resolutions as the rest.
• To position the portrait images, you will have to create and edit an _Info.json file. You can use any other character json as a template.
• You can add a character background, but if you don't, the background will show greyish by default.

If you're brave enough to dive into the code, I tried my best to document everything inside the code so you have an easier time, so go grab those html and js files!

If you want to customize the GUI appearance, thats going to be a bit complicated since you will have to learn how electron works yourself. In any case, the source code is also on this github!

And most importantly, this project was created using RoA-Stream-Tool as a base, so if you wanna go crazy on customizations, I really recomend you to check out that first, since it's way more documented (and also has a wiki!), especially if you wanna adapt this to other games.
