Clips not being detected? Check these three things first before reading further:
- Stream is tagged as Monster Hunter Wilds — not just “Gaming”
- Stream visibility is set to Public
- No overlays are covering the kill feed or ability HUD
Configure your stream correctly so Eklipse AI detects highlight moments automatically. Proper configuration allows the platform to read your game state and generate clips in real time.
STEP 1: TAG YOUR STREAM AS MONSTER HUNTER WILDS #
Eklipse detects highlights based on your stream category. It must be set to Monster Hunter Wilds specifically — not just “Gaming” or another game title.
- Twitch: Creator Dashboard → Stream Manager → Edit Stream Info → set Category to Monster Hunter Wilds
- YouTube: YouTube Studio → Go Live → Edit → Category: Gaming → Game title: Monster Hunter Wilds
- Facebook Gaming: Start Live Stream → under Gaming → select Monster Hunter Wilds
STEP 2: SET STREAM VISIBILITY TO PUBLIC #
Eklipse cannot process private or unlisted streams. Set visibility to Public before going live — not after.
STEP 3: KEEP CRITICAL HUD ELEMENTS VISIBLE #
HUD stands for Heads-Up Display — the layer of information your game shows on screen during gameplay. This includes health bars, kill counters, score displays, ability icons, objective markers, and anything else that tells you the current state of the game.
Eklipse AI reads your HUD in real time to detect highlight moments. It does not watch gameplay the way a human does — it identifies clips by detecting specific on-screen signals. If those signals are covered by stream overlays such as your facecam, alert notifications, or chat box, Eklipse cannot detect the event and the clip will not be generated.
(To learn more about how HUDs work across different games, read our general guide: What is a HUD in Streaming?)
| HUD category | What it includes | Why Eklipse needs it |
| Kill and event feed | Elimination notifications, assist confirmations, match events | Main trigger for highlight clips |
| Score and match status | Kill count, match score, round timer, point totals | Identifies high-stakes moments worth clipping |
| Health and resource bars | HP bar, shield meter, mana, energy, or stamina | Survival context — low health clutch moments are prime clips |
| Ability and skill indicators | Cooldown icons, skill charges, ultimate charge meter | Ability activations are a key detection signal |
| Objective markers | Capture progress, mission trackers, zone control indicators | Needed for objective-based highlight detection |
Safe to cover: Decorative or social elements that do not reflect gameplay state — in-game text chat panels (this is the chat panel inside Monster Hunter Wilds itself, not your Twitch or YouTube stream chat overlay), cosmetic UI elements, or ambient flavor text. If you are not sure whether something is safe to cover, leave it visible.
- The general rule: If covering an element would make you worse at the game, do not cover it. Those are exactly the elements Eklipse is reading.
- Monster Hunter Wilds HUD positions: In Monster Hunter Wilds, the hunter’s health and stamina bars are located in the top-left corner. Weapon sharpness, ammo counters, and the item bar sit in the bottom-right corner. Quest objectives and the hunt timer appear in the top-right corner.
STEP 4: PLACE STREAM OVERLAYS CORRECTLY #
Place overlays here:
- Top-center
- Middle-left edge
- Middle-right edge
Do not place overlays here:
- Top-left corner (Health and Stamina) — covering this prevents Eklipse from detecting low-health survival moments and clutch healing.
- Bottom-right corner (Weapon info, sharpness, and items) — covering this prevents detection of specific weapon states and crucial item usage.
- Top-right corner (Quest objectives and timer) — covering this obscures hunt progress and completion signals.
STEP 5: USE ENGLISH AND DEFAULT HUD SETTINGS #
- Set in-game language to English. Eklipse AI reads on-screen text to identify highlight events — non-English characters reduce text recognition accuracy and will cause missed clips.
- Keep HUD at default style and colors. Custom UI skins or interface mods that change how text and icons render will reduce detection reliability.
