Screenshot function

Ice wolf · 03-29-2008, 12:50 PM

I think we need an in-game function that allows us to take screenshots.

Getting back on topic, if you really need to save time you can download a program called 'hypersnap' that'll automagically copy and paste the screen whenever you press Print Screen. Screenshotting is so easy however that I don't see it being integrated into the game. It could happen though.

It just takes too long to make decent screenshots in my opinion. (With cropping and all.)

But what would be screenshot using the automatic interface? What if you needed more than was included? Seems like the only way to do it would be to basically duplicate the function of prntscrn anyway, which means you'd -still- have to crop it if you wanted less stuff in the shot.

I personally think that a screenshot function should only take a picture of the game screen; If you needed more, you could do it the normal way. (Because you'll need more than the game screen less often than not.)

Also, I didn't quite understand your first sentence, devonin.

posted this myself some time ago
screenshot dose not mean that a actual shot of the screen is needed a in game button will just reproduce your final run stats and send it to your profile gallery under a "user screenshots" folder like those signatures with the stats or something..
a special code / date time / username will also be on the "screencap"/score capture so you can match any given run in time with the database

I have a thing called screen hunter and it can take a matter of 2 secs to use

you can set it to be used on a certain key
and you can do full screen capture and you can choose your own shape like rectangle or oval or anything

This is it, and it is a free service http://wisdom-soft.com/products/screenhunter_free.htm

Although if you want to upload the pic to photobucket/something, you will want to re save the pic under a .gif instead of a .bmp because it goes to slow when uploading
