Screenshot Captor DirectX Capture Addon - EARLY BUGGY BETA

(1/6) > >>

mouser:
If anyone wants to try the new screenshot captor addon for capturing DirectX full screen images, I have uploaded it here:


* https://www.donationcoder.com/Software/Mouser/screenshotcaptor/downloads/beta/ScreenshotCaptorSetup.exe (v3.02)
* https://www.donationcoder.com/Software/Mouser/screenshotcaptor/downloads/beta/ScDxAddonSetup.exe
You will need to install the new screenshot captor release, and then the addon.  The addon will also make you install the SlimDx runtimes, and you will have to reboot your pc after the install.

Then you can set a hotkey for DirectX full screen capture (may default to Ctrl+Alt+Shift+X).


How well does it work?

Well.. It's a bit hit or miss at this point -- and I have to warn you that there is a fairly good chance it will crash your directX application when invoked.

If your directx game has its own way to take screenshots, that will without a doubt be a better solution than trying to use SC to take them.

So this is only for people who really like testing stuff early.  But I would like to hear reports of whether it works for you.


Thanks to Justin S, who's code powers this addon.  See this thread for a more discussion of the issues involved: https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?topic=29890.0

No brave souls with DirectX games to capture want to give this a try?

I am able to get captures of "The Ball" and "Counterstrike:Source" but not Crysis2 or Skyrim. Rapid shots crashed Counterstirke. I pressed the key about 2 time a second.

I think because it is running a command line to do the inject and copy multiple screenshots are likely to be a bit buggy in the same app.

Mouser - it is probably worth investigating the reverse p/invoke method so you can communicate to the .NET assemblies directly. This can be done in C++ .NET using some attributes, or via a custom build process with C# (decompile to MSIL, edit, recompile -> also known as creative roundtripping).
