My need screencapture is this: I need to screenshot a dualview desktop, each 1920x1080. Total = 1920x2160 (one on top of the other).
You are right. The problem lies on the moment of disk access.
I found a solution. Making an async call (libxprocess>ProcessExecuteAsync) to an external screenshot.exe, to wich I send the path I want it to save the jpeg file.
Works perfectly!!
Now I just have to find one screenshooter that works fine as well on Linux (Wayland).
Hi!
I know GM has the screen_save feature, but it hangs (lags?) the game while saving. I think a solution would be an external screenshooter. Something that I can call with a path+filename argument and it saves the screen or part of it (even re-scale it would be great).
Does your Screenshot program do it? Would it screenshot without making the program/game/runner lag?
Really good to see all your great work, man! Keep up with your creativity feeding GM community with great tools!
Hi Samuel!
I have tried to run a program using "execute_shell" or "ProcessExecuteAsync" in linux (ubuntu), but it does not work.
global.pid =execute_shell_simple(_game_path,"");
It runs fine on Windows.
Am I doing anything wrong? Is there anything else I must do so I can make it work on Linux?
Thank you for your attention on the GM community!
