FAQ

How do I update the app?

All of your personal settings are saved in the user-settings folder. So, make a backup of that folder before doing anything. After that you should be able to extract the .zip file into the same folder you're currently running Firebot from. It will overwrite the old files with the new version. Your user-settings folder should still be intact.

How do game controls work?

The game controls emulate keyboard and mouse movements on the machine that Firebot is running on. Because we are emulating these movements these controls might not work in every game. Test before streaming. With that said, sometimes you can go to your settings and change your emulator to kbm-robot. In some cases it works where the default fails.

The game controls don't work in my game!

Since we are emulating keyboard and mouse movements the game controls might not work in every game. Sorry.

Will I get banned from my game for using game controls?

I've gotten no reports of any bans. However, it is technically using outside scripts to run a game. This could be considered botting by some games. Use at your own risk.

My HTML button isn't outputting HTML!

It's likely that you're using a local filepath that is not formatted correctly. Try changing the filepath to match this: "file:///F:/Downloads/old/ROARRRRR.mp4".

Can I use this when streaming from my Xbox or Phone?

Firebot is designed to be used with a PC and broadcasting software (Xplit or OBS). The overlays and audio need to be picked up by broadcasting software and integrated into your stream at the source. Therefore, this will not work when streaming directly from the Xbox or phone.
