• <Version 1.0> 2011.05.09 - Original Release

• Will look into adding support for events and characters.

---

This script allows you to take a screenshot of a whole map, depending on the map id. The screenshot will not include the characters.

• Configurable screenshot key
• Changable path for where you want to save the screenshot
• Can force a screenshot from Scene_Map.

See script. This script requires my Tilemap to Bitmap Converter (http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=Jmqcn5rq).

Post down below.


Will not work with parallax maps.

Will it work with SwapXT? Not just compatibility errors, but will it capture the swapped tiles, and not the tiles in the database?

Why not just try it and see?
