How to set it up

OBS Studio
  1. Copy the address above.
  2. In OBS, under Sources, press + and choose Browser.
  3. Name the source, then paste the address into the URL field.
  4. Enter the width and height shown above. Leave the custom CSS as it is.
  5. Confirm, then drag the source where you want it.
Streamlabs Desktop
  1. In your scene, add a source and choose Browser Source.
  2. Paste the address into the URL field.
  3. Enter the width and height shown above, then confirm.
Something looks wrong
  • Text is cut off: increase the width and height of the source, not its scale.
  • The page shows an old setting: right-click the source, Properties, then Refresh cache of current page.
  • Blurry digits: resize through the source properties, not by dragging its corners.

How to use it

The overlay is a web page with a transparent background. OBS displays it through a Browser Source. Everything you set here is stored in the address itself, so you can keep several versions, one per scene.

Which settings work best

  • Starting soon screen: large size, centred, with your own text such as "Launch night".
  • In-game corner: small size, no seconds, aligned to the edge of the frame. A moving seconds counter pulls the eye away from the game.
  • Bright backgrounds: keep the shadow on. It stays readable over any game image.

About the time

Rockstar says midnight, local time, in every region, so the overlay counts to midnight in the time zone of the PC running OBS. If you stream to viewers abroad, say so on air. When an official time is announced, the overlay follows it by itself, with no change to your scene.

Questions and answers

How do I add a countdown to OBS?
Add a Browser source, paste the address from this page, set the width and height shown here, and confirm. The background is already transparent.
Does it work with Streamlabs?
Yes. In Streamlabs Desktop, add a Browser Source and paste the same address.
Why is the background black or white in OBS?
Check that the address is complete and that the source uses the default custom CSS. OBS keeps the page transparent as long as that CSS is not changed.
Does the overlay slow down my stream?
It only changes a few shapes once a second. It uses no video and no animation loop.
Can I use it for free on a monetised channel?
Yes, the overlay is free and needs no account. Remember that the site is a fan project and is not affiliated with Rockstar Games.
