On-screen effects triggered by comments - WordParty

How to use WordParty, a template that shows on-screen effects triggered by words in comments

Types of effects

Cracker

Launches objects from the left and right like a party cracker

Drop

Displays objects with physics simulation

Fixed coordinates

Displays images or videos at a fixed position

Confetti [PRO only]

Throwing [PRO only]

Ambient [PRO only]

A particle-based effect that keeps moving continuously in the very back of the screen

21 patterns are available in total. Movement has a two-layer structure that combines parameters with six basic motions: "Parallel flow", "Radial flow", "Pulse", "Arc", "Circular motion", and "Wander"

Shapes are drawn with code — circle, droplet, paper, star, heart, musical note, bubble, and line — and you can also specify an emoji or image as the motif

Key parameters include "Blur" to soften the outline, the "Colorful" toggle to make paper colors random and multi-colored, and "Fix angle" (off by default), which locks orientation for emoji/image motifs only

You can check the available motions in a gallery list that opens in a separate window

Connector [PRO only]

The Connector has no effect of its own — it's a feature for connecting predefined effects

You can combine multiple effects, such as running them in a lottery, in parallel, or with a delay

Trigger [PRO only]

The Trigger has no effect of its own — it's a feature that runs another effect when a special condition is met

For example, it can run a predefined effect such as Cracker or Drop once the Like count reaches a certain value

You can also run a Connector, and further combine it with a lottery or chain it to other effects

How to use

Open "Templates" from the "..." menu in the top right of OneComme

Find the "word-party-xxxx" template and click the pen icon

The editor opens, where you can set up the effects you want to trigger and the words that trigger them

Understanding the editing screen (WordParty editor)

For details on the editor screen, see "Understanding and configuring the WordParty editor"

About saving

Everything is saved automatically, so there's no need to press a save button
(If you might want to revert your changes, copy the template folder to back it up)

Once you've finished configuring it, close the window and add it to OBS just like a regular template

TIPS

If you're setting the blending method for the browser source in OBS, we recommend turning "sRGB" off

How to check your changes

Edits made in the editor are reflected immediately

Just as with checking comment display, use the Dummy Commenter to confirm the effects behave as intended

Notes on using images and videos

Resize images and videos to the size you intend to use beforehand whenever possible

Note

Files larger than 1MB may not display properly, and depending on the number of files, other issues may occur

How to include the audio in your stream

To include sound played by WordParty in your broadcast, open the properties of the browser source you placed in OBS and check "Control audio via OBS" to capture the audio

(The exact wording may differ slightly depending on your OS and version)

To monitor the sound as well, set Audio Monitoring to "Monitor and Output" in the Audio Mixer

Audio will be output from the monitoring device specified in your OBS settings
