MFC Alerts shows animated effects on your MyFreeCams stream whenever a viewer tips. It runs as a Browser layer inside free SplitCam — set it up once and tips trigger on-screen reactions live.
Install free SplitCam for Windows or macOS, then add your webcam as a source. MFC Alerts will sit as a layer on top of this camera.
In SplitCam, open the Browser tab and navigate to www.mfcalerts.com. Log in, or register if you don't have an mfcalerts.com account yet.
On mfcalerts.com, use Copy to clipboard to copy your personal alerts URL — this is the page that renders the tip animations.
Paste the URL into SplitCam's Browser window and click Add. Then reorder the source list so MFC Alerts sits above your webcam (3-dot menu → Move Up). If it's below the webcam, the effects won't show.
Open Settings → Send test tip and confirm the alert effect appears over your camera. Then stream to MyFreeCams as usual — real tips now trigger the animations.
The single most common mistake: if the MFC Alerts layer is below the webcam in the source list, the effects are hidden. Move it up.
The alerts URL is personal to your account — register on mfcalerts.com first if you don't have one.
Use Settings → Send test tip to confirm the overlay works — don't discover it's broken mid-show.
If the alert effects stop appearing, right-click the MFC Alerts Browser layer and choose "Refresh cache of current page" — that clears a stale overlay.
MFC Alerts is a live browser overlay reacting to tips — a wired link keeps both the camera and the alert animations from stuttering.
A notification system for MyFreeCams that shows video effects on your stream when viewers tip — added as a Browser overlay in SplitCam.
Almost always layer order — the MFC Alerts Browser layer must sit above the webcam in SplitCam's source list.
