How to Dump a Screenshot to an image File (jpg/png)
Posted: Tue Jun 28, 2005 5:02 pm
Hi all,
I wondered whether there is a feature to dump a screenshot from within the engine. Background is, that I plan to use Irrlicht as an image generator. Thus I do not need any screen output, yet I need to write out to an image file, say jpg or png. Is that possible at all? Will it still be possible to use the graphics card acceleration abilities?
I didn't find anything when searching the page and the forum. However I wasn't quite sure what to search for. Any information is appreciated.
Thanks
