Direct IP connect without Twitch

Azim-Palmer opened this issue 3 years ago · 8 comments

Please add add direct IP connect support that doesn't require any twitch logins etc,

Ideally I could create a room hosted on my machine and expose a port, then people can Direct IP connect to that room.

You may need a means of setting a nickname as that won't be available from Twitch, but nickname changing would be a nice feature in general

That is a planned feature, however the backend (server code) is still not ready to be merged into the app just yet its undergoing a complete rewrite hopefully it wont be long until it makes it to the app ;)

Thank you, I've done a good bit of React but no vue, I'd be happy to help out. Out of interest what's the backend written in?

backend is also js

Direct-IP join would be nice!

Agreed - this would be a winner!

please make this a reality
twitch is just more data collecting bullshit

Anything yet?

I dont understand why twitch is/was necessary in the first place? Surely a direct-connection would have been a much easier approach to begin with?

What steps have to be done for this to work, whats missing? Can we help implementing it?

Yes - without Twitch would be useful.
