Control the scenes

The broadcast scenes show what you set in the staff console: the countdown, the casters, the game clock and short messages. Set them on Browser Sources, or from Controls in Live while you score. Scores come from Live, never from here. A stream is one broadcast night and its matches. A scorecard is one match while it’s being scored in Live. For what each scene shows, see Broadcast scenes.

​

Before you start

• You need access to change the scenes. Your roles decide whether you can use Browser Sources, Controls in Live, or both. See How access works.
• Set up OBS on the broadcast PC. See Set up OBS.

​

Open the controls

In Live, select Controls beside the stream list. The same controls open beside the scorecard, starting on In-Game.

​

Save your changes

Caster Chat, Game Intro, Intermission and Stand By have a Save button at the foot of the controls. Changes stay a draft, marked “Unsaved changes”, until you select Save. Then “Saved.” shows, and OBS updates within a few seconds. Drafts are kept while you switch scenes, so you can prepare several and save each when ready. If a save fails, your draft stays; select Save again. The countdown and the game clock have no Save button. Their buttons act straight away.

​

Starting Soon: run the countdown

1. Enter the countdown length in Minutes and Seconds, up to 120 minutes.
2. Select Start. The countdown starts at once, and its status reads Running.
3. To stop it early, select Stop.

At zero, the status reads Finished and the title “Starting soon” replaces the countdown.

​

Caster Chat: pick the casters

Choose Caster 1 and Caster 2, then select Save. The lists offer everyone with a caster profile, and no one can be picked in both. Choose No caster to leave a slot empty. Names, @usernames and pictures come from each caster’s own profile, so set those up before the stream. The same picks supply the caster credit on In-Game. See Set up your caster profile.

​

Game Intro: choose the lineup

See Set up the Game Intro to choose the map, killer and survivors for each game.

​

In-Game: run the game clock

In-Game takes its teams and scores from the scorecard in Live. Its controls run the game clock, which counts up from zero on the scene.

• Select Start when the game starts. While the clock runs, the button reads Pause.
• Select Reset to set the clock back to zero for the next game.
• To add time, enter Minutes and Seconds under Add time, then select the button below, which shows the amount, such as Add 01:30. You can add up to 2 hours at once.

Until a scorecard is open in Live, the clock reads No scorecard and its buttons are greyed out.

​

Intermission: set the status

Enter the line shown under the matchup in Status, then select Save. It reads Intermission until you change it. Intermission shows the match being scored in Live, with its set score. To show two other teams, turn on Choose teams manually, choose Team A and Team B from the verified teams, and select Save. The set score shows only if they’re the teams being scored in Live.

​

Stand By: set the message

Enter the Message the scene shows, then select Save.

​

Result and End Stream

Result has no controls. It shows the winner chosen when the scorecard was finished in Live, with the final set score, and shows the result as pending until then. End Stream shows a closing “Thanks for watching” sign-off and needs no setting.
