Title: Take screenshot and save it onto texture variable
Post by: m3ndi3 on July 25, 2014, 06:07:38 PM

Hello, if anyone can help me make this custom action, I will be eternally grateful! Basically I want to call a screenshot action that will take a screenshot, then save it to a texture variable I set. I would like to use this to display my screenshot at the end of level screen (use it with Set GUI Texture). Thanks!!

There already exists an action called "Take Screenshot"

If this it not enough, have a look at this post:

Sorry but the Take Screenshot action saves the screenshot to the users folder, not a playmaker variable to use in other actions

I'm also interested in dynamically changing textures and haven't figured out how to do it.  Did you ever solve the second part of your problem here?

"Facebook SDK Action+ for PlayMaker"
https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/en/#!/content/20048
can do this.

It saves a screenshot to a texture you can do whatever you want with it after.
(It also posts it to Facebook, but I am sure somebody who knows what he is doing can "fix" that.)

Please share if you get something similar working, without the FB part.
