Step 1: Get OBS.
There are a few other streaming software options, but OBS is free, and still stands up to professional-grade software.
Step 2: Link your OBS client to your [Streaming Site] account.
How this is done varies, but if you're using Twitch, you'll need your stream key, but I'm not aware of the specific requirements of other sites. When in doubt: Google.
Step 3: Set up your scene.
Your scene is, by default, completely blank. There will be some boxes at bottom. Click "New" or whatever on the right one, and add Game Capture and select the program/game you're streaming, or select desktop capture.
Step 4: Stream.
Congrats, you're ready to stream to the whole world! Just hit the stream button and you should go live (Again, this depends on the service you're using).
Optional step 5: Accessorize
OBS lets you deck out your screen, having multiple screen and camera captures, images, audio, etc.... It's all under that little new button. A little fiddling can net you anything from the mundane to the magical.
Step 6: Get laid.
Just here because every good process in life should include this.
Pretty much this.
I encountered an issue with streaming KotOR 1 on my Twitch channel about a month ago. I couldn't get the game into a windowed mode to do a window capture (playing it off of Steam), and when I do game capture, pre-rendered cut scenes didn't display, and the video of the game itself would flicker. This only appeared on the stream, not the actual game itself. I was kind of bummed that the issues popped up, because I really want to stream this game and comment on it. Does anyone have any advice on how to fix this?
