You can also follow the steps below to upload your first application to start streaming your application.
Let's walk through the application together and explore the features of Vagon Streams.
You can simply start by dragging and dropping to upload your application file to your Vagon Streams dashboard.
The upload process will depend on your local connection speed, but we are doing our best to make this process faster for you.
Preparing a Compressed File
While uploading your project to Vagon Streams, you must consider the important points listed below.
The compressed file must be in .zip format.
The compressed file must include all necessary project components and the main executable file in .exe format.
The main executable file must be inside the compressed file root directory.
After uploading your compressed file, the initial modal window will appear on the screen. The system will list the executable files inside your compressed build, and you can choose the file you would like to run automatically for your Streams.
Following the executable file selection, you can give a name to your application and upload an application logo for it.
According to your application requirements, you can choose the best performance for it. If you need more performance options, contact us.
After setting the general settings and performance selection, you have to choose the cursor control preferences for your application.
If your application is optimized and developed for the mouse cursor inputs, you can choose the Mouse Control mode.
If your application is optimized and developed for 360° view control like first-person shooter games, you can choose the 360° View Control mode.
Your application is ready to create Streams now! Let's move forward with the Stream Link creation process.
After uploading your application, it's time to create your Stream Link to share your application with your users! Here is how you can create your first Stream link.
If you haven't created a Stream yet, you can directly start by choosing the application you would like to stream from the Streams tab. Otherwise, use the + New Stream button to start.
Then, you can create multiple Stream links for your applications.
Depending on the location of your visitors, you can choose available service locations for your Streams between the 20 different regions Vagon Streams can be used. When your visitors try to connect to your Stream, the nearest location will be assigned for them to provide the best experience.
Capacity Management Methods allow you to manage visitor load and experience according to your use case. They will ease the integration process for you and manage your Stream Machines on behalf of you based on your selection.
Depending on your needs, you can choose the Capacity Management Method and then proceed to finalize the Stream creation process.
All set! Now you are ready to share your application with a single link with no code integration.
Just copy the Single Link, and share it with your users, that's all!
Do you need to embed it on your website or your platform? Just use the iframe code we created for you.
