Automatic screenshot tool for external view?

Featured Replies

Hi guys is there a tool payware or freeware for FSX/P3D that allow to take automatic screenshot of external view while you are in VC? This feature would be very useful during landing and takeoff. Infact I think all of us make a replay of takeoff or landing in external view and make a specific and repeated screenshots.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks in advance

Here are two free options you might wish to check out.

And Fsscreen that is mentioned in the text in the file above. (what I use)

Although neither are automatic as such, requiring a key press to 'capture' the screen image.

 

I hope this helps you out some.

It's a shame, those tools don't work with DX10. Furthermore you can take a screenshot of external view while in VC. or I'm getting wrong?

Well if those two tools would have worked the answer would be no. They work as what you see on the monitor is what you get. As for any other tool that you might find I could not say.

Sorry!
