    OBS Utils/User guide

    Choose the stream camera

    Early access 5.4.1

    The stream camera belongs to the OBS client. Open the Director in your normal Foundry browser to choose what it should show.

    Automatic following uses token permissions to decide which tokens the spectator can follow. You can also choose a custom selection when you want the stream to stay with a particular group.

    Combat has its own mode choice. Following the active combat token is useful when you want the audience to see whose turn it is without moving the camera yourself.

    Choose Clone the Selected Player’s Viewport and pick a user under Tracked Player to follow that player’s view. Clone the DM’s Viewport follows the active GM.

    Fit Map to Screen fits the map to the stream view. It works well between encounters or when the audience needs the wider scene.

    After changing a mode, look at the OBS browser source. If the result is unexpected, check the tracked user, token permissions, and the current combat mode before changing the scene itself.

    With 3D Canvas active, use free-camera mode for Copy GM, Copy Player, and static camera presets. The Director shows the current 3D camera status. If it reports that free-camera mode is required, switch modes before applying a view.

    3D token tracking and camera animations aren’t supported in this release. 2D and 3D presets belong to their respective camera modes; switch back to the matching mode to apply or update one.
