Photographer Add-On Update?

Auldjohn · September 2017

Photographer has been my go-to for UI-free in-game screenshots since forever (actually since it first appeared). However, it appears to be widowed. Shows Out-of-Date, although I can use it with Enable Out-of-Date add-ons. Any Add-On Devs willing to adopt this helpful orphan?

You might consider using LightShot (an all around screen shotter, using the PrintScrn button for resizable screenies, or shift-prtscr for full screen shots. Just go to https://app.prntscr.com/ and download Lightshot for screenshot captures in ALL games, as well as browser, desktop and what all. I've been using it for a couple of years, and I love it.

If it works, don't bother with out of date indication.

You have http://www.esoui.com/downloads/info701-ScreenshotHelper.html too.

Tested Lightshot. Not fond of the way it completely takes over the PrtSc button needed for other games and applications. The big problem is default install to Drive C. My C is a small 256GB SSD (limited space). Drive D DATA is Partition 0 of my internal 1TB SATA hard drive, for User files, etc. Partition 1, Drive H PROGRAMS, on the internal HD is for general program installations. Partition 1, Drive F DOWNLOADS is on an External USB 3.0 3TB SATA hard drive, 2TB size, for downloads and most games. Partition 0 of the Ext HD is unmapped, the bootable OS Recovery Partition.

Lightspot tech support never responded to my requests. I can find no way to install the app to an alternative drive, or configure options to disable it for games and apps that require the original PrtSc scan code.

That being said, thanks for the suggestion!,

Actually, when I updated to my newest rig, I was forced to change my key for taking shots. As the game now has a built in screen shotter (F12 key) and the PrScr key is of some other use (I forget right off hand) I have assigned F9 as my Lightshot screenie key. Works just like before. But again....this is for a free sizing screen shot....if you just want one of the screen in full, add shft-F9 to do a full screen shot immediately. Hope you've found a good alternative, or discovered Zenimax's option for this game. I believe it also works on a few other Bethesda Games, so it may be their software add in that is working. Not positive.
