Transcripts
1. Intro: Welcome to my course
on how to use discord. Discord you can get
your own community. You can talk about games. You can use it as
a streamer, e.g. but also the company to talk to your clients and customers. In this course,
we're gonna go over how to make your
own discord server. How to make those into
discord server today, your own ear modes
and much, much more. Don't forget to rate this
course when you're done. So let's jump right into it.
2. Join A Dsicord Server: How can you join
a discord server? I prefer doing it
on the desktop app, and I definitely
recommend downloading the app and not
using the browser. Then here on the left,
you've got your servers. And there's also this
plus button at server. This is where you can
create your own server or you can use any
of these templates. But there's also a button
here, join a server. Here you can put in
the server link, copy the server link, and paste it in here and click on join. You can join the server. Usually if you have
a link like this and you've got the app
installed and you click on it. You also can join a server, sometimes his book dough, and this is the only way it
will actually take the link. I feel like this is the
most reliable option, but clicking on it
is the facet one. So I usually just start right-clicking on it
and if it doesn't work, I copy it and paste it here.
3. Where Can I Find Announcements: Where can I find announcements
in a discord server? So here is my disk
richer for and here on the left I see an
announcement channel. It just called announcements. So if I click on it, you
can see there's a lot of promotion
announcements in here, but also there will be
something happening. We did this chord, I will
be posting it in here. Then here the left, you see this icon and it
says announcement. If we hover over it, this isn't an official
announcement channel in Discord. Thinks that people
can follow this into their own discord and people can get the same announcements. So recognizing an
announcement channel is really easy by finding
something with this icon. However, if you're new, you might not have
the availability to the announcement
channels yet. So then what people
usually do is just color channel
announcements. If you're making a
discourse over yourself, make sure that you have a
channel called announcements. We can talk about things
that are changing a discord or important
announcements you want to make. Because if everybody keeps using the word
announcements is gonna be easy for everybody to find because it's the
same way everywhere.
4. Discord Notifications: How to set notifications in a discord server does multiple ways of
getting notifications. E.g. if you join Discord server, you can get notifications for every single message being
sent is Discord server. This court owner can turn it off and put them
on mentions only, and then you don't get that. So that's the first way
of getting notifications, is getting notifications
for everything. If you want to turn
this off and only turn on mentions
want you to do is right-click on the server
notification settings and then put it on only mentions
and not an all messages. Then in a discord server
you can have rules, e.g. here, torture Lord,
huge pillars, but also just Dreamer or stuff
like that I have in here. And those are mentioned because they're
mentioning your role. It's also for owners will
give you a rule manually. Like you're my server here, you can click on this image underneath and you
can get the role. So what I do if I post
something about my twitch, what I'll do is I'll take
the role which alerts and everybody without role will
get a notification for me. You can just turn it on and off by clicking
on these buttons. The way I do this is
with the dark PD. This is how it's called.
This is how it looks like. Basically what it does is if somebody clicks
on the IE mode, it will automatically
assign that role. And if I take him, they got to mentioned
and they get a notification to go to your notification
settings for server, you right-click on any
notification settings. And here we have only mentions, which is if they mentioned
your role or your person. So for me, a tree or e.g. a. Streamer, or you've considered all nothing for
no notifications. If somebody gives you a
role and it keep tagging you and you don't want
that, set it on nothing. You can also suppress
everyone in here. So if you do at everyone, everybody in the Discord gets
mentioned with here it's everybody that has access to this one channel is
being mentioned. You can suppress that,
that I don't do that. Suppress oral mentioned. So every role they mentioned, you can get a notification
for the highlights. When they highlight the message, you don't get a notification. If there's events in
the Discord server, you don't get a notification or mobile push notifications. You can also turn
this off and then you don't get a notification
in your phone. He also mute the server for 15 min and our tree hours 8 h, 24 h, or until I can
turn it back on. It means that we don't get any notifications
for this amount of time or forever or until
I turn it back on. This is how you can set your notification
settings in discord.
5. Connect Discord To Other Applications: Oh, to connect this
score to other surfaces. But you do is you go here to the bottom-left user settings. There you go to connections. Here's see a lot of
different icons. The first one is to
connect to Instagram, PayPal, TikTok,
eBay, crunchy roll. This is an enemy streaming
service, PlayStation, Spotify, Xbox, Epic
Games, Facebook. We can even click on
this to see more. Github, League of Legends, Riot Games to watch a
YouTube for some of these, these are just icons
on your profile. With others, it does more, e.g. with Twitch, you can implement your subscriber modes
to your Discord server. Then all your
subscribers can use these nodes all over Discord. It also, if you go live, you'll get a purple bulb next to your name and a link to your
twitch. But due to e.g. people can click on your YouTube and watch a few
videos immediately. For Spotify, people can see
which song you are listening right on the seconds so they can enjoy the music
together with you. I don't know every instance
of what they exactly do, but most of them at least share your username
on your profile. E.g. I. Collected my petal
length, which is this. And now it's not displaying on my profile because
I've turned this off. But if I click on this, we can
display it on our profile. Here we read it, we have
our name on the profile, but we can also display details. When I add details,
we can click on here. And because I
connected this before, details was the thing, I need to reconnect it by clicking on this
with torch, e.g. we can see these are servers where I have a
subscription on, on Twitch. So I link my Twitch and
these people also link their Twitch to their
Discord server. And now I can see I can
join, it is scored. And then I can use the
modes everywhere in discord because I'm
subscribed to them on Twitch, you can even add multiple
switch accounts. So I have multiple Twitch
account and you can just in both,
There's no problem. There will also detect if you go live on both of them, YouTube. You can also connect
into a disk or surfer, and you could connect
the members of your YouTube channel
and give them extra perks on your
disk or server. How does it look on our profile? So if I click on myself
and then click on Profile, scroll down, we can see
all this information here. You can just click on here, and then we'll redirect
to our socials. This could be nice if you
have social media, e.g. YouTube or Twitter or Instagram that you
want people to follow. But also, if you want to
play with people on a game, it's easy for people to
fight you in the game now. So we can see that this is my betel nut and people
can play Overwatch, e.g. it may really easily because
they know how to add me now, this is how you
connect your Discord easily to other surfaces.
6. Discord Mic And Webcam: How to pick a microphone and a webcam you want
to use in Discord? Yeah, the bottom left you see this cogwheel would
use a settings. If you click on it in
a tab app settings, it says voice and video,
I'm going to click on them. Here you have a default device. This is the microphone, so we click on us and we can select a microphone
we want to use. So for me, this is the mic from the WAF XLR default output. We can select what is your headphones for me because I've used a
wavelength software, I'm going to select the
voice chat bot for you. This might be real-time audio or any other audio device you're using for your headphones
or your speakers. Here we can click on tests
and we can see you can, sorry for the echo, but you get deselect that JC input volume of your microphone so you can make it less load. You can't make it
louder at 100% Sally. And an output volume of what you hear through
your headphones. This is hundred percent,
but you can make it louder. Here we have input mode. How do you talk in discord? You can either do
voice activation. If you start talking, it will pick up
automatically and started recognizing that you're talking and turn on your microphone. We push your talk,
you need to click a button and then
it will activate. So if I click this, you'll see our shortcut is
this tilde thing. If I click that, that means that Denmark microphone will turn on. If I don't click it, no
microphone will go on. We can have a released
delay for a few, releasing it too quickly every time with the
voice activation, we can see this bar. We can see where our
voice is ending. So SVC, or voice is actually a little higher
than this threshold. So this means that if we put up these thresholds
it a little bit, it won't cut off because
we're still above it. But if you have
background noise, it will be somewhere here and it will cut off the
background noise. We can also automatically
determined by clicking on here. And now it
automatically tries to find the best way to do it. But I think if you take it here, you can manually do it. You get a better result
and a more precise result. Now, if we scroll down, we see few settings. This is where you see which
webcam you want to use. Here you can choose the camera. We can choose any of these
cameras that I've connected. Let's see, my Beck came out, I think that's HTML tree. And we get dusty video here so you can see what's happening. Yeah, That's my bad primer.
Hello, Hello, Hello. As you can see, I'm using that right here in the video
settings and we can switch here to wherever we want and we can always look
at the preview here. You can also click
on always preview. Then every time you
click on something else, you're automatically
see the preview. And we can also set one of these virtual
backgrounds like we can do. A background blur is going to work pretty bad because well, it doesn't recognize my face, but if you see if
I turn it around, it recognize my face and it's
going to make that sharp. You can also have a custom
one and have something like this and it's automatically
recognize your face. It's going to put that
in, but it works a little better with a friend Carolyn
does with the back camera. You can basically choose any of these and it will
automatically green screen. Then we got some
advanced options here. This could only uses
the best organic, locally sourced opium voice codec because this is
where you can turn on the open 8264 video codec or turn it off if you don't want to end the hardware
acceleration, if you don't know
anything about computers, just leave it as it is here
we have echo cancellation. If you've echoing
your microphone, if you click this ONE, there might be a chance
that the program can resolve that the
noise suppression, this is trying to reduce
the sounds around you, e.g. your computer friends
or train passing by, we can have standard
crisp or known. And the more we put on. So if you put it on crisp, the more it's going to
affect a voice as well. We want it to be as
low as possible, but still without any
noise in the background, we can automatically control
the gain of the microphone, which makes it go louder. If you talk really quietly, enabled quality of service,
high packet priority. You can see that basically from all the internet
uses you're using, Discord is going to get
priority in your router. If you turn this on, knowing the volume of other appliance by percentage when somebody
is speaking set to zero per cent to
completely this April. So if somebody is speaking
and you're playing a game, it will lower automatically
if you turn this on. So you can hear that person
more clearly when I speak, you can turn it on, you
speak yourself as well, or just when others speak. Another one that's
important to keep on is voice diagnostics
showing warning when discord is not
the audio for him. I confirm this way. You know where your microphone
isn't attached properly. Those are the most vital
parts for attaching the microphone and your webcam
and using them in discord.
7. Make Your Own Discord Server: Hello, to set up discord server to make your own discord server, I recommend downloading
the discord at first, so don't do it in the browser, but in a discord
desktop application. So this is how it looks
like and this is my server. To make a new server, you click on the Plus, but just at server and create my own if you wanna do it just
for your friends here, but for Twitch streaming or for YouTube streaming or
any other community, club or community right here. You can give it a server name. You can call it
whatever you want. If you have a name for a
community, put it in here. If you're gonna make a
server all about a game, you can put it in here for me. I'm just going to
keep it tree server, just to keep it
easy to remember. Here, I'm going to
upload an image, which is basically one of these images you see here on the left. It's becomes a round circle. I'm gonna click on here and
we're going to browse for an image mode here of a cow. So I'm going to
click on this one. As you see, it makes it a circle even though
it was a square. So some things might be outside
of this frame right now. So keep that in mind. I'm going to click on Create. Now it made a new
disk or surfer and it automatically puts it on
the top of your serverless. Now, you're the
only one in here. Let me start out. We have a general chat and a
general voice Chen. To make a new text chat, we just click on the plus here. We can call it whatever we want, media, e.g. and
we can create it. Now, this is a new channel. We can create as
many as we want. Means same goes for the voice. Just click on the plus and make sure that you click on
the voice for this one. You can call it over,
watch chat, e.g. and create a new one
for voice chats. You can use a space for
text just you can't. If you would type
something like Dan over, watch Chen, a dash
in-between will appear. You cannot remove this dash. You can also have categories. So this is a category
with text and voice channels by clicking
on an EDM create category. Now here we can give
it a name, info, e.g. for the information channels and we can direct them on both. Now we have information
channels here to make a channel
with socials, e.g. we have it in the
information section. We can lift these and
place them somewhere else. Just drag and drop. You can even have
your voice chats in the same category as text chats. You don't have to have it in a category called
voice channels. I do recommend
having at least in general chat area of talk to
each other depending on what you want your disk or
two people if you play a certain game at
all and you want to interact with people
about that game, e.g. Overwatch, I just keep using
it as an example right now. You can make it Overwatch
channel as well, where people can talk
about Overwatch, e.g. I. Teach a lot of things
about streaming. I do have some channels about
streaming here as well. If you start out with a server, you can make your announcement gentle and actual
announcement genitalia. But if you grow, you can have it to be an
announcement channel. You see that this is an
announcement channel. This is a text gentle. So this means that we can
publish things in this channel. Basically, if you
click on a plus, we can see that there's
multiple options here. Which one of them isn't announcement channel
people will get notifications for these things when they come out
with Estates General, you can have host
speak and people just listened in without
being able to speak. But this is not available yet when you just
start a server, I think the best thing
you can do is think about why would people
come to my desk, good surfer, and built
your server around that? Because then you know
what kind of channels you need to be you about gaming. Makes sure that you
have some channels where people can
talk about gaming. You do something creative. Have some channels where people can share some
of the creative. If you have a server
or a longer time, you will see which
channels are going to be active and which
ones aren't active. Tried to switch around, delete the non-active
channels at something new in and see
if that works better. Otherwise just delete them. You don't have to add
like 100 channels. But if you have ten
active channels and to have hollow channels
where nobody is talking in, another important thing
is setting permissions. E.g. in the
announcement channel. You don't want anybody
to be able to type here. So we're going to
edit this gentle. Go to Permissions. Everybody that's in,
it's just scored. Can view the channel. Yes. Measure tell, no, we didn't want them to be able to do things. Mesh permissions, No, No. Creating fight, no. Sent messages, no
non-traditional. Sent messages and threat
know create public trust. No, no, no, no at
reactions, Yes. This depends on what you want. If you want them to be able to react with an E mode on it, you can just say
yes, otherwise no. They can use externally
modes on it. That's fine. The rest of it is No, except for message history. If you turn this off,
people don't know what is set in that channel. Less. They are right there at that
moment, that as being said, so I said this is a
yes and no, no, safe. Now, people can see what's
being typed in here, but it can type themselves. I can because somebody, because different permissions
for categories. So instead of going
for this one, because we don't want
them to be able to type into rules and roles
and the socials. We could also just sell
it for info instead. If we right-click on info, we can edit the category and we can edit the
permissions here. If you set a position
for a category info, it will applied to
all the channels in this category except
for announcements, because we just said everything for
announcements manually, manually for channel override
someone one in a category. We can also set
permissions per row. So we can add rules
by going up here, server settings, rules. Here we can create roles, e.g. malt, and what we can do is
we can set these permissions parole so we can plus here and click one
of the other rules. We can also click on one
of the members to set the permissions for
them specifically. But if you have a big server, you probably want them
for roles instead. Though we can say noobs. They can also talk e.g. so we can set this ONE
sent messages every time. It's like on the middle part, it means we're not going to take the real
from this gentle, but we're gonna take it
from the category info. So it's not set
for those things, but we're going to
look at Mars it set for any Info channel, you will get the
highest permissions of your highest rule. So e.g. everybody can
see this channel, but nobody can talk in it, but noobs can talk. So that means that
if you have a noob, you can talk even though you also are part of the
group, everybody. So if I give you
another rule as well, you still can talk because you
are part of the role noob. So you get the
highest permissions you get in one of
the roles you have.
8. Discord Create Role: You have discord server
and you want to add roles. You discourse server,
how do you do then? You go into discord, you go to your server and I
click here on this arrow. Then here we go to
the server settings. Here in the service
settings we go to Roles and it says Create role. Here we see all the roles
that we already have. So we're going to create a rule and we can give it a name. So I'm going to call it test for now because this is
just the test for us. It's Oreo here we can
choose a color or we can click on this
to choose anything. E.g. this purple, if your
server is level two nitro, you can also choose an image, but you have to boost
the server for that. So that costs money. Here you can display the rule separately from
all nine members. I'm going to save this
for a second and go back to the server to
show you here e.g. the Happy Birthday and immoral, the twitches grabber rule, level 20, level 15 are different than just the
online that we have here. So these are just
all nine people. These are online, but these
other roles are separate. They become their own category. If we go back 2D rolled section, if you click this dural test will become its own
category. Hello. And he wanted to
mention this role. This is good e.g. for mud role where people need to take it. Otherwise, if you take this on, what will happen is that people are going
to take this role and people are
gonna be annoyed by all the notifications table can, you can view the
server as if you have this rule so you can see
which permissions they have. So you know, if they can see the things that you want them
to see here on the left, you see all these roles
and the order is actually matter because the higher
does role is on this letter. The hired is sending the
Enter key of permissions. If you put test before months, most Kanban tests, because that rule is higher
than the rule. You have to keep in
mind that if you have boats and they have
their own rules, that you keep them above the roles that you let
them interact with it. Because otherwise they
can change things. E.g. we have the perfect
bulb which needs to give and take The
Happy Birthday role. If you put Happy Birthday
above the pot rule, it can't interact with it. Here we see manage members, which means that we can see
which members have this rule. We can add members in
here to add to this rule. We can also add the row to
people by clicking on them, clicking on the plus and
then giving them test. Just click on here. Now Nim has test and we're moving it by clicking on the X. The last thing I want
to show you guys, if we go back to roles and
go back to the test rule, we can have permissions here. Permissions can be
set per channel, but also in general, here is few channels. Now we can see the channels in a discord, server mesh channels. It can change the channels. Good for a role, not so good for other
things. Manage Roles. It can change these rules just like we're doing right now. Mesh emojis, stickers. It can add stickers
to your server. Beauty audit log can see who left the
server joyed server. We've got banned few
servers, the insides. So as e.g. statistics on how many people joined,
managed web hooks. I mentioned Server. These things are all kind of like
moderator things. So you don't want to give
this to other roles. And the moderator roles. Create an invite from the
server and chasing nickname. Create an invite to the server, which is a new link for
people to come into server. You can also just
share a link that you made yourself in one
of your info channels. And then you don't need this because people can just
use that one link. They can choose a nickname, miniature other
people's nicknames. Again, I wouldn't
allow them to do that. Kick members, band members, timeout members, will actions. So not everybody should
be able to do that. Sent messages. Of course, you want them
to be able to talk. It says messages into
tracks and Baker threats, we have private threats. So these are just
invite only threats. Then they can put
links in the chat, attach files, and at reactions, reactions are like if you resist and leave a reaction like this and you have
this little reaction, I can use external nodes. If they have no triadic, can use image from
other servers. And if they don't, they
can use twitch image of subscribed channels and
saying which stickers I always keep mentioning
at everyone in here out because people
are going to try and spam and you don't want them manage messages
and manage stress. Again, moderation actions. With message history, you
want to turn this on. If you do not turn this on, people could only see the
messages posted when they are active in that one channel and they will not
see anything else. So this is really annoying
if you forget to turn it on. People won't see anything
in the channels. Text-to-speech messages. Usually I will keep this
off because they can become really spammy
slash commands. This could be for boss
to interact with e.g. the perfect board or
the reaction robot connects to voice channels, speaking voice shallows,
and use the videos, kind of speaks for its own. Use activities that
use voice activation. I will just keep that
on. Then they can use they conducted a
microphone, will pick them up. Instead of that, they
have to use push the dark priority speaker. Don't put this on for everyone because if you push the dark, everybody is quiet,
automatically. Mute members. Again, different members and staff members are
moderation actions. You don't want to give
everybody requests to speak. This isn't a stage genital. Stage channels are kind
of like podcasts kind of things or seminar
kind of things. And people can request to
speak and ask you a question. Mesh events. So you can create events like
assembler or something like that that you want to do in
your server and then people can start being part of that. So again, moderation, action
and administrator issue make them an official moderator
in your discourse server. So again, you don't want
to give that to everyone. So that is how you make a role in discord and
how you can set it up.
9. Add Emotes To Your Discord Server: How do we add an email to
your discourse server? Here's my Discord server. What we do is we click here and then go
to surfer setting. Here we see emoji. Here we see all the emojis
that I have uploaded. As we see, we have
50 image slots. If your server is
boosted by nitro, you can have more slots if you're animated the
most with Jeff, only people that have
discord nitro can use them. Here are some
requirements that need to be a JPEG, PNG or JIF. The recommended file size is 256 KB and the recommended
dimension is 128 by 128. I see You think switching
modes or how to 12th. 12th, you can still upload dose, but this court will resize them. The email name needs
to be at least two characters long and contains Alpha numeric characters and underscores you want to add one, we click on Upload IE mode. I'm just going to
click on my cow here. And I was uploading. It's already uploaded. We can already see it and we
can remain here to test e.g. cow test. Now if somebody types
contestable dog, this emote will appear. So it's a little cow. The cow test is
going to be here. If we click on emails here, you can see my mouse
is right here as well. As you see there's
more demos right here. These are my subscriber.
You most from Twitch. You can link your torch
to your desk or server. Then all your subscribers
on Twitch can use your torch E modes in Discord
as well, in any channel, the standard emails
that you upload to your Discord server
can only be used in your desk or server unless
the person has nitro. If you have nitro,
you click on emails, you can click on any
other server and use the most from that
server to server myths, this server has the
settings on that S allowed. A server can decide to turn off emails that are not from that
server in their own server.
10. Discord Nitro Boosting: What's this chord nitro
boosting for a server? Right here, I'm on my Discord server and if we
click on the settings here, we can go to the surfer boost till here we can see the levels. We can boost the server. If we click on this,
you'll see it costs money. The currency will change
depending on where you live. If you still have the
discord nitro classic, you get the discount. So this is already discounted. If two people boost it, we will get 50 more
surfeit ie modes. So a hunter in total, ten custom stickers
lost a total of 15. So you already get five, get better audio quality and
intermediate server icon, custom server invite background, which means that if you
have this invitation link, you will see a background on it. Stream to your friends
and high-quality. So just the quality of
the streams are going to be higher for seven
boost right here, we're gonna get a note of 50, so that would be 150, so that will be one plus two plus the basics 15
custom stickers law, so dirty and total more audio
quality. A server banner. So that's like a little
icon on the top left. So you would have it right here, an upper limit of 50 and
before the whole surfers, so everybody that is trying
to upload something on the server will have a
higher server uploads and ADP 60 FPS streams in your server and
custom rule icon. So you can have like IE mode or something and I can
in front of a role. And for the third one, you get even more slots. So you got tune of
50 emotion total. You've got six
stickers in total. You get better audio
quality again, goes from invite
link for a server. So you can have discord
Dutch cheese, e.g. tree. I don't have that,
but you can have that as discord server
name or your name, obviously not mine
and honored and B, upload limit for your
members on your server only. Then we have an animated
surfer vanished so that surfer vendor is
going to be animated. So boosting is surfer
written nitro and buying a server Bruce does not
give you nitro yourself. So you do not have a
nitro subscription if you boost a server.
11. Discord Streamer Mode: What is streamer mode? So if I go to discord here, it has two modes, enables, say Save friend, we
can disable it here. If you see this
purple banner here, this means this streamer
mode is activated, automatically starts when
you start OBS Studio. This is to prevent from
leaking information. One thing it does is
if I go to my name, I click on myself and
I go to my profile. Here it says streamer
mode enabled. If we disable it and we click on herself scan and
go to a profile, we can see our socials that
we have linked right here. So this is one of
the things it hides. I'll give me set the
streamer mode on. If it didn't automatically go
on down here uses settings. Then we go to streamer mode, and we can enable it
by clicking on this, but it also hides e.g. this here, nasopharynx
in account. It makes sure that
it's some information like e-mail and stuff like
that, It's not leaked. So here are some
options for it and we can set automatically enables disables if mode OBS of exploits are running
on this computer, like I said, it's
automatically start. If you run OBS, you can disable that if you want by
clicking this off. High personal
information, emails, connected accounts, notes,
and anonymized number tags. So this is the tag that I
showed you on the profile, that's the connected accounts. But also to note that
you leave on a person, there'll be hidden if you
turn streamer mode on, and this is also on
height invite links, this will hide the links that will lead to your
Discord server. So if you're streaming
a don't want people to come through you a super
secret discord server. Make sure that you turn
is on disabled sound. The sound effects from going
into a voice chat, e.g. there'll be turned off
or when somebody joins. The scooping. Nice for people to know here, but it could also be
annoying if you don't know who's joining and
when they're joining. So this is a preference thing
if you want this on or off, you can also disable
the sounds of any notifications so they
will not be in your stream. I keep saying stream in here because it's called
streamer mode. But you can obviously
also use it for recording of V0 content instead
of live content, because it's also a
really annoying to hear notifications in
your video content. There it off. You can click on
here or just turn it off in a banner like this.
12. Discord Overlay: You're gaming on stream. And now you also
talking with people in discord that you
can hear on stream. It will be cool for your
viewers to know who is talking, having their name, and I can be displayed with the
voice that here, it's super easy
to set this up in Discord as this code already has a native feature that can show you who is talking
while playing a game. To get this overlay
from discord in OPS, we need to make sure that
we open discord first, go to a name here and goes to the colloquial thing User
Settings, click on that. Then here if we scroll
down a little bit, we see activity
settings, game overlay. We're going to click on that
ever going to make sure that we enable in-game overlay. It could be that
this is already set up for you and then you
don't have to do it, but makes sure to check this. You can also set a keyboard binding to toggle overlay lock. Let me just set this to
Shift F9 for a second so we know that we can
toggle the overlay. Look, how big do we want
to people that are in our discourse to
display in his overlay, do we want them large or small? Display names? Always,
while speaking or never? Never is basically
the same as off. So you probably want
always are only speaking. I prefer always because
then you can see who is already in your disk or a note when somebody
is speaking. But if we prefer only seeing
the person that is speaking, make sure to put
it on this setting instead with the user's display, always are only well speaking, not just the name,
but also the icon. Here I can say in
which corner you want the overlay to be in, top-left, top-right,
bottom-right, or bottom-left depends
on which game you play. There might be information
at a certain corner. You might be wanting your
webcam and certain corners. So pick the one
that fits you best. Here says Show Text,
Chat notifications. I recommend turning these off
because these will also be displayed in your stream
soon, how does this go on? Now, we're going
to start a game. So I'm launching of
watch two at the moment, if we go to discord
and a voice channel, let me go into a lotion
because that's locked. There we go gear when
we start Overwatch, I've got an FPS counter
and everything. But you see that I'm in here. You see you when I start
talking, it lifts up. When I'm quiet, it
doesn't let up. If you have multiple
people in your first shot, this will be a longer
list of people. They will light up if they're
talking and they will go like this when
they're not talking. But how do we actually
display this in your OBS now, I do have OBS here and we're going to add a
game play capture. Game play capture. We're
going to call it Overwatch. To us, is the game over
our shoe and every click. Okay, now we capture a specific window and
we captured a game. It should appear right underneath
here and here as well. However, we can see that the discord overlay
is not in here. What we do is to scroll down and then capture
to a party overlays. If you click on this, it's going to take a second. And we can see that right here, my icon's started to appear
and if you click on Okay, now we can see that this icon is actually displaying
on stream as well. So this isn't easy way to set up the discard overlay in your OBS.
13. OBS Virtual Camera In Discord: You want to join
at this chord call with the output of your OBS. So you can see your camera
or you can still switch genes while showing them
in your desk chord. That is possible by
using virtual camera. I'm going to show you in
this video how we do. I just see I'm recording
this with OBS, so there's a little
stream section, sorry. First thing you want to make
sure is that you OBS setup, like you want it to set your camera to the scenes
that you wanted to, that you set things up like you want it
to ever done that. And we have the scene like
we wanted to. Let's say e.g. say it's this, we're going
to do virtual camera. Start virtual camera. It will just be like recording that has a start
and stop button. So now if you click again,
we will stop it again. We will turn it on. Now
we can go to discord. Now we'll go to the settings, then we go to voice and video. Here, we can set our voice, which is correct already for me, but we can also set our camera. So what we're gonna do is
we're going to click on the camera here and set it on OBS virtual camera here we can test the
video like we see. We can see the same screen because I'm recording
that in OBS right now. So if I make it
smaller, you can see that this is a scene
that we have here. If you would ask something else, you would see that in here too. But I can't do that
because I'm recording this with OBS and then you
can see the other things as you see it's displaying this right here in
the video team. If you have a camera there, it will also display
the camera here. If you have images there, it will also be displayed
if you would switch scenes, it will also switch scenes. So next time you join, it will be using the OVS output. If it doesn't, what
you can do is join a channel dark primitive
video, right here. It works two node camera,
and now it works already. But if it does pick
the wrong one, we can click on turn off camera, but there's a
little button here. We can click on that and select virtual camera here as well. So we do not have to have
it on the default one. If we click this little arrow, we can switch to the
OBS one as well. Turn it off, just click on
stop virtual camera again. Make sure that you always have OBS open with the
virtual camera on. Otherwise, it does
not work because it needs to be opened and
it needs to be running.
14. Course Project (Outro): Thank you so much for
joining my course on how to use Discord for
the course project. What I want you to do is to create your own discord server. With all the knowledge you've
learned in this course, make sure to add voice and
text channels that fit with the topic of your Discord
server at rules to your Discord server to
make sure to keep people organized and set permissions per channel or per category. Once you've done that,
big a screenshot and share it in the projects and resources tab if you
have any suggestions for topics that I need to
still at in this course, leave them in the
comments because I will try and keep this course
as fresh as possible. Tell me what you
thought of the course by giving it a review and don't forget to check my other courses because they might also
be helpful for you. I'll see you in one
of my other courses.
