Twitch Vs Minecraft
by btarg
Twitch Vs Minecraft lets viewers of a Twitch stream send in-game commands to the streamer's Minecraft world through chat.
What it does
Once the mod is configured, the streamer types a command in-game to connect the world to Twitch chat, and a connected message confirms that viewers can now interact with the game. A disconnect command ends the link at any time. Drawing on the CrowdControl idea from Kaze Emanuar's Super Mario 64 Mod, Twitch Vs Minecraft converts viewer chat into random in-game effects, selecting one roughly every half minute.
Setup is done in a configuration file, and the author asks that it be edited with Notepad or Notepad++ to avoid random issues. Changes made while the game is running update without a reconnect. Keys are stored encrypted in Serialised, unreadable connection key files, which should not be shared with anyone. Because the mod is client and server, both the server and every player need it. Forge is the only loader, and files target 1.18.2 only, with 4.0.0 as the latest file from 2023-07-06. The code is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and the project has public links to its source, issue tracker and wiki.
