💺Remote Viewers

Allows users to interact with an M2 event directly from the website through a video stream, rather than needing to run a local or streaming client. Often referred to as the "lean back" experience

Due for Removal, please see Docs.

31/10/2024: MSquared will no longer directly support Remote Viewers. Currently we are unaware of any customer projects using this functionality. Please reach out if this is not the case.

The Solutions team will be available to discuss how something can be built in project space to facilitate this if needed.

MSquared will not be addressing non-critical issues relating to this going forwards.

Please speak to your Support Engineers for more info.

What does the system do?

This system adds a new, minimal friction way for users have a presence in and interact with an M2 experience through a video stream of the event.

When this system is enabled, each user that is watching the video stream of an event through the experience's web portal with have their avatar automatically spawned in to the world and visible to other players. In addition to this, text chat which they send from the web portal will appear above their avatar's head as if they were a "real" player and they can also emote as normal through controls overlaid on the web stream.
