I've made some changes for the next stream, including hacking the VASL client to give us a (slightly) better viewing experience, tried to optimise the streaming parameters, for a better quality stream, and even bought a stream deck to aid with transitions, text updates and scene changes.
It was great to get the feedback during the game, and even better that people have enjoyed it a little after the fact, too. Thanks again - we'll be doing it again, soon!
Are you guys SUPER new to VASL?
Yeah the ONE view for the boards is a big limitation. It's best to operate with "perspective"
The STREAM DECK is a must for streaming.
LOL I actually added some VASL shortcuts to one setup to "Delete, DM, clone, ETC."
You just have to get used to the keys on the SD.
When streaming its tough to keep your audience focus. You might see other replays that never zoom in on a CAMPAIGN size map where 3/4 of the map isn't even used.
That'll come with time.
Personally, I like the 120% zoom in VASL. especially with a half board.
I try to eliminate 90% of the white as you mentioned.
Always Clear via the TOOLBAR, Cleans up the sides...but not really necessary..
Would love to chat with you guys on Discord some time.
