This ties a bit into the thread about going standalone:

 

I just stumbled again over this page: http://opengameart.org/

 

The do have quite a bit of content that might be usable for us. However, our art assets are under a compatible license. So wouldn't it make equal sense to "donate" all our textures etc to them?

What do you see that would be helpful for us in going standalone?

 

I haven't browsed the entire DB (net is slow today), and perhaps not so much ingoing standalone per se, but they do have some assets that fit our general theme:

 

http://opengameart.org/content/rigged-horse

http://opengameart.org/content/worn-medieval-shield

http://opengameart.org/content/retextured-gnarly-tools

http://opengameart.org/content/mortis-and-tenon-table

 

Plus, the other direction (we donate to them) might also bring us goodwill, connections and talented people who want to help us to replace assets. There are a lot of very talente people out there with a lot of time on their hands..

 

For instance, this game here donated all their assets: http://www.unknown-horizons.org/ and they DO look professional to me.

 

Basically, a way to network.

      Happy Labour Day, my taffing taffers & hard working mapping friends!
      And remember the poor souls who, within the Inventors’ organization, labor under Jonus’s yoke to ensure the success of that very guild! Always remember the hard workers!

      Is there a script command to make a screenshot?
      I just though it could be interesting to be able to create a screenshot at a certain point in time. Then use that screenshot possibly in a debrief.
      I guess the second question is: Can you use a (in-game made) screenshot in a (debrief) gui?
