idtech4 WIP Projects LIVE Twitch Stream

[oneofthe8devilz]

In the spirit of reviving and possibly increasing the community activity here, I wondered if anyone would be interested in joining some live idtech4 Twitch streams where idtech4 fans like us can showcase their latest WIP projects...

I just so happened to experiment with live streaming in the last few days and if there is interest, I could write detailed tutorials on how to setup your free live stream to do some idtech4 project showcasing...

Maybe we could set a date where most of us are available (probably Saturday or Sunday evening) and could agree to register free accounts at www.twitch.tv so that the members/viewers of the live stream would be able to ask questions and give live feedback during the streaming session...

In case there is enough interest I would agree to host the first live stream event, showcasing the latest projects I am working on and if people enjoyed it and would like to host their own streaming event I could put the tutorial on how to host a free live stream up here shortly after...

Thanks for your feedback in advance...

This sounds great. What would be the requirements for a project to be hosted? Would my mod meet those requirements?

That sounds like a neat idea.  My big question is, what do you plan to go on beyond the ~6 or 7 people normally making D3 engine content?

Well... to me 6-7 ppl in a streaming channel talking about idtech4 stuff while watching footage sounds like a pretty cool thing and honestly I don't plan anything beyond that...

If that could happen once a week with rotating streaming hosts I'd already consider it a success.

A first live test stream will go online right now for the next 60 minutes at http://www.twitch.tv/oneofthe8devilz

***update***

And 120 minutes successfully streamed which was actually quite fun

I plan to stream some more this weekend... we had some nice informative chats going on during the live stream.

Another MCS Twitch Live Stream session will be held today on July 18th 2015 at 19:00 CET.

Also announced on moddb.com.

Hope to see some of you guys too tonight.

***update***

And streaming successfully completed, not many questions during the stream this time but at least quite a few new followers to the twitch channel

Also in order to be able to announce and communicate live streams of the latest idtech4 development builds more efficiently to you, a Twitter Account has been created that you can follow. That way shortly before a stream goes live, every follower will be notified on time.

Simply visit and follow my Twitter Account to never miss a live MCS broadcast again.

Plan ahead and get it posted on moddb.com front page news.  Hopefully more viewers!
