Clutch Setup Guide
General Information
This guide will cover items downloaded from NerdOrDie.com and TwitchTemple.com and will take you through the setup process. If you have any questions that aren’t answered in this setup guide, please feel free to contact us.
Photoshop and other third party software is not required to use this product, however specific components can be edited in Photoshop and After Effects, as we provide some of the original files.
The alerts, overlays, and widgets have been designed for use with OBS Studio, Streamlabs OBS, and Xsplit. Please make sure your streaming software is up to date before using this product. If you are not familiar with how to set up and use streaming software, we strongly suggest checking out the below tutorial before moving on:

Streamlabs Alerts
In your downloaded files, open up the standard alert folder.
- Click the Alerts Quick Setup link to begin installing these alerts.
- If you’d like, choose “Create Widget Theme” and name it something appropriate such as package name. The import link will only override your alert package. This means you can combine these alerts with any other scene collection/widgets you’ve made in Streamlabs. If you want to save your old alerts, it’s highly recommended to do this in a new profile.
- Select “Use” for the profile you want to import into.
- Navigate to “Alert Box” and copy your unique URL.
- Paste this URL as a “Browser Source” in your streaming software.
Once you’ve added this into your streaming software test the alerts to make sure they’re working properly.
Width and Height of Source
We generally recommend setting the size to 1920 wide and 1080 tall (more height is recommended if using messages), however, depending on your stream adjust the size here may work better for you. If you need to scale down, you can do so directly inside of OBS Studio. If you’re using the Streamlabs OBS .overlay file, you may not need to complete this step if your alert box is already added in.
Delaying Text-to-Speech
If you’re planning on using text-to-speech you may need to delay them from being read, as there may be an intro animation and sounds (depends on the pack). To do this, you can change the Alert Text Delay in the Streamlabs base options. If you’re using alert variations (such as re-subs) you will need to update in the variations as well.
Once you’ve added this into your streaming software, test the widget to make sure they’re working properly.
StreamElements Alerts Install
In your downloaded files, open up the Streamelements alert folder.
- Head over to Streamelements.com and ensure you’re logged in.
- Double click the Streamelements Alert set up link from your downloads
- This link will automatically open up the Streamelements website and begin the import.
- You should get a notification at the top of the Streamelements website stating the import was successful
- Head over to “My Overlays”
- You should now find the imported alerts named after the pack they are from.
- Click on the “Launch Overlay” to get the URL for your alerts
- Paste this URL as a “Browser Source” in your streaming software.
*NOTE: The Streamelements links are specific to your platform. You can only use the Twitch link for Twitch, and YouTube for YouTube.
Once you’ve added this into your streaming software, test the widget to make sure they’re working properly.
Changing the Icon Colors for the Alerts, Event List, and Alert List
If you’d like to edit the color of the alert icons or event list animations, you can do so two different ways:
- Most Alerts, Eventlists and Goals have a “Custom Fields” section in the widget settings.
- If there are no “Custom Fields” you can add a color correction filter. Right click your sources in your streaming software and add a color correction filter, you can adjust the hue, brightness, and saturation of this source. Please note: this will change all the colors in this source. We recommend leaving the custom options at their default in order to get the best results.
