Installing

Please note: For usage examples we will be using the command prefix !. Remember to use the prefix you setup with the bot.

• Create a guild role called 🔴 Live! (Yes, copy and paste the role name.)
• Make sure this role is below your bot's active role.
• Copy GoLive.dll & Services.GoLive.ini into the CMDModules directory of your bot's installed directory. typically in your AppData folder.
• Open OnStart.core in your bot's main directory and add the following lines somewhere in the script:

REM This command is required to run on bot startup. Please only run the command once.
CMD InitGoLive

• Restart the bot.
• You should see purple log entries in the console output titled GoLive.

Creating Live Alerts

• Simply go into a text channel you want your bot to send the Alerts
• use the command !addalert <DiscordUser @mention> <Twitch username> <True/False Supress @everyone>
  • Please note: If you want your users to get an @everyone ping, make sure you specify False for the supress parameter.
  • Please note: Your bot must have the ability to mention @everyone in order to correctly use this command.

FAQ & Troubleshooting

My bot isn't notifying a channel I went live?

• Does your bot have permission to send messages to your channel?
• Does your bot has the ability to post embeds and links in your text channel?
• This module will only work on Guild Channels. Not Groups or DM.
• Ensure you have used the !addalert command in that channel.
• Does your guild have the designated GoLive role? (🔴 Live!) Is this role below your bot's highest active role?
• Make sure you have enabled Streamer Mode in your settings. Otherwise, you won't get recognized as being live. By default, streamer mode is automatically enabled when you start OBS.
