Taking A Screenshot
« on: August 06, 2004, 09:44:00 PM »
Ok, so i figured UnleashX is the right place to post this.

I go to the Game section, load my game, and play it. I want to take a screenshot here and there, how can it be done?

You need to have the XDK Launcher (part of the XDK) to take ingame movies / screenies.

Only other way is with a video capture card on your pc.

Doesn't the DOAXBV nude hack/patch have the ability to take screen shots while you're playing the game?  

This needs to be implemented into Halo some how.   :(

If someone can do it, I will overnight them a cookie.

 I found XDK Launcher kit in one search. How come it seems that it's so hard to find. It was such a cinch for me.

 Yes, one of the patches did have this feature. The game slightly hiccupped when u took a screenshot, but hey, it worked!

I think people asked about incorporating it into other games, i think the answer is that all games/developers are different so it could get really complex to incorporate in some/most games.



As for taking screenshots, you do need the xdk however someone made a simple interface for taking screenshots, i beleive you can download it here on x-s (tools section, look around).

Don't worry once halo 2 comes out, youll never need to take a screenshot of "Halo" anyway.
