Want every bug kill, squad save, and mission victory in Helldivers 2 clipped automatically?
Use this quick checklist to set up your stream so Eklipse AI never misses a highlight.
✅ 1. Confirm Helldivers 2 Is Supported #
Before going live, make sure Helldivers 2 is included in the Eklipse Supported Games List.
If it’s not set correctly, your stream highlights won’t be detected.
✅ 2. Select the Correct Game Category #
Eklipse detects highlights based on the game category you stream under. If your stream isn’t tagged as Helldivers 2, no highlights will be captured.
How to set your game category:
- Twitch
- Go to Creator Dashboard → Stream Manager
- Click Edit Stream Info
- Set category to Helldivers 2
- YouTube
- Open YouTube Studio → Go Live
- Choose Stream → Click Edit
- Set category to Gaming
- Enter Helldivers 2 as the game title
- Facebook Gaming
- Start Live Stream
- Under Gaming, select Helldivers 2
✅ 3. Keep Helldivers 2 HUD Elements Visible #
Helldivers 2 displays critical information—like health, stamina, ammo, minimap, and mission objectives—directly on the HUD. Eklipse relies on these elements to detect highlight-worthy moments, so make sure they remain visible.
Must stay visible in Helldivers 2:
- Health & stamina indicators
- Ammo and weapon info
- Mission objectives and progress markers
- Kill feed and enemy alerts
Safe to cover (optional):
- Chat box
- Minimap (though best left visible for clarity)
💡 Pro Tip: For wide or ultrawide monitors, you can adjust HUD placement using
Options → HUD → HUD Offset to shift elements closer to the center of your screen.
Recommended Stream Overlays: Do’s and Don’ts #
Correct overlay placement is critical — if your facecam or alerts cover Helldivers 2’s HUD, Eklipse won’t detect highlights.
✅ Good Overlay Placement
- Facecam in corners that don’t block HUD info
- Alerts placed away from objectives or kill feed
- All key HUD elements are visible
❌ Bad Overlay Placement
- Facecam covering health or ammo
- Alerts blocking mission objectives
- Widgets overlapping the weapon HUD
Overlay Tip: Test your layout before going live to confirm HUD visibility.
✅ 4. Set Stream Visibility to Public #
Eklipse cannot process Private or Unlisted streams. Always set your Helldivers 2 stream to Public before going live.
✅ 5. Use Correct Language and HUD Settings #
For the best AI detection in Helldivers 2, stick to default settings.
- In-game language: English
- HUD and kill feed: Default style and colors
- Mods: Avoid mods or overlays that change or hide HUD elements
