What's New in StreamerCatalyst v1.6.0

StreamerCatalyst v1.6.0 is here! This update focuses on deepening your community engagement, making your transitions more professional, and making the switch to our toolkit easier than ever. Here is a breakdown of the most exciting changes and how they help you run your stream.

✨ Major New Features

Public Event Pages

You can now create dedicated, shareable Public Event Pages for your community. These pages allow viewers to see event details outside of your live stream, and you can also add a matching browser source to your stream layout to display event information live. You can preview these pages directly in your dashboard.

Interactive Widget Sounds

Make your overlays feel alive! You can now bind custom sounds to any event across every native overlay widget. Whether you want to upload your own unique sound bites or choose from our shared library, your stream alerts will now have the audio punch they deserve.

StreamElements Import

Moving your setup to StreamerCatalyst? We’ve made the transition seamless. You can now import your StreamElements account, which automatically carries over your:

• Commands
• Timers
• Quotes (including all cooldowns, permissions, and aliases)

To get started with bot integrations, check out our Bot Integration guide.

Ending Credits Widget

End your broadcasts with style. We have added a new native Ending Credits widget that provides a full-bleed credits roll, perfect for acknowledging your community or contributors as you sign off.

📈 Enhanced Engagement & Tracking

Watch Time & Presence Tracking

New presence tracking allows you to see how your community is interacting with your channel. You can also use the new !watchtime command to let your viewers see their own history with your stream.

Advanced Channel Variables

For creators who love custom automation, we have added new channel-stat variables. You can now use $(followers), $(subs), $(subpoints), and $(plus …) within your custom commands and even read them inside an $(eval …) block.

Improved Giveaways

Giveaways just got a major upgrade. You can now set specific time limits for giveaways, complete with a live countdown and an automatic winner selection. We’ve also added a !hypecheck command to help manage the excitement.

AI Privacy Controls

We take viewer privacy seriously. This release introduces a dedicated viewer opt-out page, an opt-in command, and a cross-channel purge tool to ensure your community remains in control of their data.

🛠️ Improvements & Bug Fixes

We have also implemented several high-impact fixes and performance boosts to keep your stream running smoothly:

• Faster Chat & Commands: Chat messages are now processed ~40% faster, and bot commands trigger ~50% faster.
• AI Persona Fix: The AI persona widget is fully restored and now correctly utilizes your persona, lore, and stream context.
• Mobile Optimization: The Commands table and the Stream Planner’s card editor are now fully functional on mobile devices.
• Accurate Sub Counts: Fixed an issue where tier upgrades were incorrectly inflating subscriber and point counts.
• Twitch Sync: If you change your Twitch username, StreamerCatalyst will now automatically update to prevent stale data.
