Broadcast Hijack - Broadcaster Guide

  1. The default setup expects a rumpo van because Config.broadcast.hijack.allowedVanModels is set to that model by default.

  2. Use the vehicle target interaction:

    • Retrieve Weazel camera

    This gives you the kf_weazel_camera item if you do not already have one.

  3. Use the Weazel camera item from your inventory.

    A tripod placement overlay appears with controls like: [E] Place [X] Cancel [Left/Right] Rotate [Up/Down] Raise/Lower [G] Ground Snap

    Place the camera within the allowed van signal range.

  4. Target the deployed camera/tripod setup and use:

    • Attach NHD to camera

    You must have the configured NHD item in your inventory first. Default item: kf_weazel_nhd.

  5. Target the deployed rig again and use:

    • Start Weazel network hack

    If Config.minigame.enabled is turned on, the local hijack minigame must succeed first. On success, the broadcast goes live.

  6. Once live, other players can join the stream with:

    • /tunein
    • the configured tune-in hotkey (default J)

    They leave with /tuneout or by using the same toggle key while tuned in.

  7. During a live broadcast:

    • Viewers see the spectator overlay and stream panel.
    • Overlay chat, emotes, donations, viewer count, adverts, and polls can run live.
    • The broadcaster can stop the session with /broadcaststop.
  8. While broadcasting:

    • Deploy Tripod switches from handheld live mode to a static shot.
    • Re-aim Shot updates the static tripod position.
    • Pack Tripod returns the broadcast to handheld live mode.

Broadcast polls only work while a live broadcast is active, and they use the same permission gate as starting/stopping the broadcast.

  • Start a poll:
/broadcastpoll Best QB? | Mahomes | Brady | Montana
  • Stop the active poll:
/broadcastpollstop
  • If the camera battery expires, the broadcast ends automatically.
  • If the broadcaster disconnects, the broadcast ends automatically.
  • If requireVanLink is enabled and the live anchor loses van signal too long, the broadcast ends automatically.
  • Players cannot tune in while dead, ragdolled or falling, restrained, in a vehicle, or in combat.

The same permission gate controls:

  • starting a live broadcast
  • stopping a live broadcast
  • starting and stopping overlay polls

That gate is configured through:

  • Config.broadcast.startAce
  • Config.broadcast.allowedGroups

If both are configured, the player must pass the ACE check and the framework-group check used by this resource.
