Easy screenshots - custom scrap

[Wally]

Hi and happy 2019!

Two questions please:

• Is there a way to create gameplay screenshots automatically (eg pressing a button and Launchbox to create a gameplay screenshot and do the database assosoation) using LaunchBox-RetroArch?
• I am trying to import ZX Spectrum Homebrews which obviously do not exist in and scrapping engine.

            The filename convention I have is either:

• filename (Year) [for games compatible with all Spectrum models]
• filename (128) (Year) [for games compatible with Spectrum 128l models]

How can Launchbox set the 128 to the Version column and the Year (eg 2018) to the Release Date column?

Thanx

for your 1st question the answer is no LB doesn't have the ability to create any screenshots let alone then automagically have it associated with the DB.

for adding the 128 to the version and the year to the release date that would be a lot of manual work.

I think it is a relatively easy task...and quite useful. It will help enrich the media libraries...Maybe Jason can think about it.

As for the scrapping...putting year in 30 years of homebrew games manually is a no-go

Until then you could always try using a plug-in. @jayjay of our forum has one in the development thread you can take a look at.
