Poltergeist: Remote Control Overlay, Alerts & Mod Tools

Semi-free Poltergeist: Remote Control Overlay, Alerts & Mod Tools

See Every Dashboard Feature in One Video​

A new tutorial video builds an overlay from scratch and automates it, covering the canvas, presets, alerts with AI voice TTS, "Trigger Studio", the "Chatbot Builder" and mod permissions.


  • Trigger Studio Setups: Two triggers are built step by step, an alert box that fades in on every alert and a subathon timer that gains time on every sub.
  • Discord Help: Questions about any step can go in the Discord.

Crop Any Element​

Select an element and set "Crop Top", "Crop Bottom", "Crop Left" or "Crop Right" under "Width" and "Height" to trim that edge.
  • Crop Handles: With "Crop with Resize Handles" ticked, the resize handles crop the element.
  • Reset Crop: shows the whole element again.

Viewers Can Gift AI Voice Characters​

The public gift page now offers "AI Voice Characters" under "Gift Type". Gifts of 12 months of Broadcast Suite are now 8% off.
  • Gift Alerts: Voice gifts can fire the "Broadcast Suite / AI Voice Gifts" alert with their own text.
  • Overlay TTS: YouTube and Enterprise accounts can now use TTS.

Ko-fi Donations on Your Alert Box​

Donations on your Ko-fi page fire alerts in Poltergeist. Channel owners link their page under "☕ Ko-fi Webhook" in the right sidebar, the steps are in Linking Ko-fi. Tick "Ko-fi Donations" on an Event Alert Box and each donation shows up with the supporter's name, amount and currency.
  • Alert Template: {user}, {amount} and {currency} fill the alert text, and the Min / Max thresholds count whole currency units.
  • Trigger Studio: The new "Ko-fi Donation" event fires your triggers with an optional minimum amount, and the Chatbot Builder gets it as a system event.
  • Supporter Messages: A message the supporter made public appears under the alert text and is optionally read out by Speak Alert (TTS).

One Alert Box, Many Rewards​

Alert Boxes now take a list of Channel Point reward alerts next to their other alerts. Click "+ Add Reward Alert" in the properties to add one.
  • Own Message: Every reward alert has its own text, with {user} and {tier} filled in on redemption.
  • Any Reward: Leave the title empty on an entry and it reacts to every reward.

Natural Voices for Alerts and Games​

Alert Boxes, Prize Wheels and Carnival Games can now speak with a natural AI voice instead of the browser's built-in one. Tick "AI Voice" under "Speak Alert (TTS)" or "Speak Winner (TTS)" in the properties panel and pick a language and a voice right below it.
  • Fifty Languages: Choose from over fifty languages and thirty voices per asset, each alert or game can use a different one.
  • Broadcast Suite: Available on Broadcast Suite channels, the default TTS stays available for all users.

Roll a Number on Stream​

A new "Random Number" asset under "Spawn Assets" draws a whole number between the "Min" and "Max" you set with a short shuffle. Roll it with the "Roll" button in the properties panel, or from chat with !roll [name] after giving it a "Random Chat Name", with !roll [name] [min] [max] setting a new range.
  • Rolled Event: A new "Random Number Rolled" event in Trigger Studio fires on every roll with the result as {amount}, optionally only when a chosen number comes up.
  • Roll Action: A new "Roll a Random Number" action rolls it from any event, and every action after it in the same trigger gets the result as {amount}.
  • Text Lines: The "Update a Text Element" action has a new "Mode" dropdown, and "Add as a New Line" writes under the current content instead of replacing it.

Arrange the Sidebars Your Way​

Every section in both sidebars can now be dragged into the order you want. Grab and drag a title such as "Canvas Assets" in the left sidebar, or "Content" in the right sidebar with a text asset selected, and drop it where you need it. The tools and property groups you use most sit at the top on every visit.
  • Touch Support: Press and hold a section title on a phone or tablet, then move it into place.
  • Saved Per Browser: Your order is remembered on each device you moderate from.

Full Control Over Your Alerts​

The new "Alert Control" panel in the Properties sidebar (with nothing selected) appears whenever an Event Alert Box is on the canvas.
  • Pause & Skip: Hold every incoming alert, or instantly cut the alert on screen, sound and animation included.
  • Replay: The panel lists the last 20 alerts, one click plays any of them again.
  • Speak Alert (TTS): A new checkbox on the Event Alert Box reads the alert text and message out loud on the overlay and open dashboards, with a mute per device.

Tallies Can Now Fire Triggers​

Trigger Studio has a new event: "Tally Reaches a Value". Pick a Tally (or all of them) and a target number, and the trigger fires the moment the count reaches it, counting up or down, whether it changed from dashboard clicks, chat commands, or another trigger.
  • Auto Reset: pair it with the "Reset a Tally" action on the same Tally to start a fresh round every time the target is hit.
  • Searchable Dropdowns: every dropdown in Trigger Studio now opens with a "Search…" entry, so you can type to find an event, action, asset, or chat command instead of scrolling.
