Any way to take simple screen shots on no$gba or zoomer?

Kuruma84 · 2 Weeks Ago

Hi. I was wondering if there is any way to take a screen shot that gets saved automatically by pressing a button or command? On the old GBA emulator I remember you could assign screen shot to a key, and when you pressed it, it would save a screen shot in .png format in a folder on your computer.

On No$ and Zoomer, I have to press Print Screen, and then open an image processing program (such as Photoshop) and save them manually. The problem with that, besides lag from the emulator running, is that I like to take a lot of screen shots, so it's pretty time consuming.

Any option to save the screenshots right away from the emulator?

Neither No$GBA nor No$Zoomer have such a feature. The only way is as you have described.

Awww. Okay, thanks. =/
At least I didn't miss anything.

I wonder if it would be hard to make such a modification to zoomer?

If you could go here (Feature Request) , and post an enhancement of a quick hotkey for capturing sceenshots of NDS, the author may probably add it. (and it seems to be a very minor issue....)

It's for DeSmuMe...

You could alway use screenshot software like Wisdomsoft Screenhunter Free or Gadwin Printscreen to make taking screenshots of all manner of things (not just DS emulation) a lot simpler and user friendly.
