Stream Setup: Xsplit + Twitch.tv + Mumble
Techs
- Requires a moderate or powerful computer (i7 does it just fine)
Wormkit module D3D9Wnd
- Install Worms Armageddon with the latest update
- Download and extract the archive with the D3D9Wnd module (by Kawoosh and StepS)
- Run W:A, go into Settings and set the in-game resolution to 1280x720 (recommended for streaming, but you can pick your own)
- Go into Advanced Settings
- Tick "Load WormKit modules"
- In the "Graphics" drop-down select Direct3D 9 (shader palette)
- Exit W:A
- Start W:A again. Now you are in a windowed mode
Twitch.tv
- Register at http://www.twitch.tv
XSplit
- Download and install XSplit
- Start XSplit
- Add your twitch.tv channel
- Go to View -> Resolutions -> Edit resolutions and tick 1280x720 (the one you chose in the W:A settings)
- View -> Resolution – choose 1280x720
- Now, set up your scene. Click “Add screen region” and click on your W:A window
- Stretch it in the XSplit window
- Start your broadcast
Mumble
- If you need an easy way to comment games with your friends just use Mumble
- Install client
- Add server:
Label: Worms Address: worms2d.info Port: 64738 Username: (your nickname) Password: (no password)
- Turn your speakers off. Use headphones. Otherwise you will have annoying echo that can ruin your stream

- Make sure there will be no noise in your room (talking, tv or any other sounds except your voice)
- Configure "Push-to-talk":
Configure->Settings->Audio Input->Choose “Push-to-talk” from drop-down menu. Shortcuts->Add->Choose “push-to-talk”->Click under Shortcut tab->Push “Right Ctrl” (or any other key of your choice)
