- | |||
- | Please join our [[discord|Discord]] to get involved with racing: | ||
- | * The # | ||
- | * Community races and events will often require you to stream your race. Please do not turn on any stream delay.\\ | ||
- | * Please register your twitch stream with the racebot through the !setstream command. (You only have to do this once, unless you’ve changed your Twitch account)\\ | ||
- | * The restreamer will ask for volunteers to be on the restream. If you would like to volunteer, please have your stream output set to 720p or less, with a bitrate of 2500 or less. Settings higher than that can overly tax the restreamer’s computer and the increased resolution won’t actually show up on the restream.\\ | ||
- | * The seed is rolled about 10 minutes before the start time using the !ff6wcflags command.\\ | ||
- | * When you have loaded the seed and are ready to start, use !ready in the race channel.\\ | ||
- | * Do not discuss the race outside of the # | ||
- | * Setting your stream to emote only is encouraged while you are in the race.\\ | ||
- | |||
- | Special Notes if you are chosen to be a featured runner on the restream:\\ | ||
- | * Turn off your mic.\\ | ||
- | * Turn off stream alerts.\\ | ||
- | * Turn off any stream delay.\\ | ||
- | * Please have game sounds/ | ||
- | * Have a save from a previous game loaded and wait on an world map\\ | ||
- | * The restreamer will let you know when you’re cropped and audio is balanced, and then you can load the seed when it’s available.\\ | ||
- | * If the restreamer asks you to adjust your sound levels or video output settings, please do so.\\ | ||
- | * Once you’re cropped, do not change your layout.\\ | ||
- | * When you have finished the race, keep streaming until the restreamer lets you know you are good to cut.\\ | ||
