I have been replaying some of my favorite 2014 Quake maps, and I noticed a trend in Skacky's excellent output. I think he deserves praise for other things beside his top notch mapping skills, and I feel I need to point this particular thing out. There is just something that stands out right from the start in three of his map jam maps.

(I kid, because I love the maps.)

Lol...

Accounts Obtained

I registered a new account. I have posted as Pekka previously, and I'll be now known as primal here. You could tell this from the IP addresses too, but I might as well admit it openly here.

I also got myself a Twitch account. I managed to stream game audio and good quality video successfully after a few not-so-good attempts. I have a few cosmetic issues to fix, which I will try to do in the coming days. I'll also see if I can get a microphone working some day. In other words, I am not streaming seriously yet.

I am http://www.twitch.tv/mr_primal/

If you have a couple of minutes to spare, please check out the highlighted bit of Quake and tell me if there are any other significant problems with the video apart from the weird aspect ratio. That wasn't intentional.

I'm using simplescreenrecorder to stream on Linux. It was my first time using it. I'll write a few words later about how things work out, streaming from a Linux computer, and what kinds of streams I'm planning in the future.

Being able to see the game window and title bar is very distracting. I don't know what limitations you are facing in your streaming app but if you can fix that it will help a lot.

Audio seemed fine. If you are using a mic at the same time then you want to turn your game audio down to around 20-30% or people won't be able to hear you on the stream.

Microphone audio quality is super super important for streaming. If you have horrid background noise or bad quality mic then people won't want to watch your stream. Take the time to test lots of different things and find out what sounds best.
