Screenshot Plugin

This is just a simple plugin that takes screenshots of the TV and GamePad screens. The screenshots will be saved on the SD card in the folder sd:/wiiu/screenshots

Installation

([ENVIRONMENT] is a placeholder for the actual environment name.)

  1. Copy the file screenshot.wps into sd:/wiiu/environments/[ENVIRONMENT]/plugins.
  2. Requires the WiiUPluginLoaderBackend in sd:/wiiu/environments/[ENVIRONMENT]/modules.
  3. Requires the MemoryMappingModule in sd:/wiiu/environments/[ENVIRONMENT]/modules.

Usage

Press a button combo (default is L + R + ZL + ZR) on the GamePad to take a screenshot.

Via the plugin config menu (press L, DPAD Down and Minus on the GamePad, Pro Controller or Classic Controller) you can configure the plugin. The available options are the following:

  • Settings:
    • Enabled: (Default is true)
      • Enables or disables the screenshot plugin.
    • Button combo: (Default is L + R + ZL + ZR)
      • Changes the button combo for taking screenshots.
    • Screen: (Default is TV and GamePad)
      • Determines from which screen a screenshot should be taken. Possible options: TV & GamePad, TV only, GamePad only.
    • Output format: (Default is JPEG)
      • Determines which file is used. Currently saving screens as .jpg, .png and .bmp is supported.
    • JPEG quality: (Default is 90)
      • Determines the quality when saving as JPEG. Lowest possible quality is 10, highest 100.

Building

For building you need:

  • wups
  • wut
  • libmappedmemory
  • PPC versions of zlib, libgd, libpng, libjpeg (install via pacman -Syu ppc-zlib ppc-libgd ppc-libpng ppc-libjpeg-turbo)

Building using the Dockerfile

It's possible to use a docker image for building. This way you don't need anything installed on your host system.

# Build docker image (only needed once)
docker build . -t screenshot-plugin-builder

# make 
docker run -it --rm -v ${PWD}:/project screenshot-plugin-builder make

# make clean
docker run -it --rm -v ${PWD}:/project screenshot-plugin-builder make clean

Format the code via docker

docker run --rm -v ${PWD}:/src wiiuenv/clang-format:13.0.0-2 -r ./src -i
