Download Here: Community Modern Package v2.23
¶ First Installation
¶ Install the latest version of OBS Studio
- Make sure you have the latest version of OBS Studio installed
- Close out OBS Studio for the next step (it will be launched automatically)
¶ Install the latest BGG Modern Package
Once you've downloaded the latest release, run the .exe.
When running the program you will likely get a windows warning saying "Windows protected your PC". Click on More info double check the .exe name as the one matching the Github file. Once verified, then click Run anyway.
- The above window should launch. Select the destination folder where you want broadcast related files stored. The location or drive shouldn't matter.
- Click Install!
After the installation is complete, OBS Studio, the BGG Local Server (preview below), and the Scoreboard.exe should launch.
In order to make the new overlay compatible with OBS v24 and up, a local webserver needs to be run in order for formatting to work correctly in OBS. Absolutely no information is collected or sent with this.

¶ Using the Tool
The Overwatch Scoreboard Tool.exe is the way to change your dynamic elements within the broadcast and its design. There are four tabs:
- Match: Team, team colors, player names, heroes, roles, maps, scores
- General: Event name, talent, social media, match designation & naming, broadcast colors, assets
- Replays: List of replays & replay controls
- Bracket: Team listing, record, and bracket
¶ Match Tab
- Put in your Team Names in the corresponding spots for Team 1 and Team 2. Note that if you need to swap sides during the match, simply click the Swap button and then click Update
- If you have player information, enter their names, select the hero, and role under the corresponding team. Once you're done, click the Update button.
- Enter in the maps or map type placeholders (Control, Hybrid, Assault, or Escort). The tool and package are able to handle up to 7 maps and will only show as many spots as are NOT blank. For example in the above image, only 5 maps will be shown (see map scene below)

Utility 15-Utility-18: Descriptions of the corresponding matches designated inUtility 1-Utility 4as below:
➡ 
Utility9(Optional): You can indicate how many maps/games are in the series by writing Bo1, Bo3, Bo5, Bo7, and so on as in best of x maps. This will help show how many maps are total in the series within the in-game scene (see the below examples with or withoutUtility9used):
Utility9 = Empty: By default, the text at the top center of the In Game scene will show the current map based on what is checked as "completed" on the Match Tab in the scoreboard tool
Utility9 = "Bo5": In this example since "Bo5" is typed into Utility9 then the logic will show the total number of maps

For the current package, we have scenes built for a single elimination bracket from the quarterfinals onwards, or a double elimination bracket from the Winners and Losers Semifinals.
