Multishot (Screenshot) Updated less than 3 days ago!

Version: 3.1.0

by: dlui, Dridzt, emelio

Multishot is a tiny addon that automatically takes screenshots of memorable events in your World of Warcraft career. It's a photo diary of everything you come across in Azeroth, Outland and Northend.

Features & screenshot possibilities

level-ups and guild level-ups
achievements and guild achievements
challenge mode medals
battleground and arena victories
reputation changes
trade window transactions
any rare/rare-elite mob kills
timeline; take a screenshot every x minutes (configurable)
keybind; take a custom screenshot on demand

And most of all: boss killshots in dungeons and raids. Inbuilt database contains most if not all bosses ingame. Pew pew!

How to use
Just play as usual and Multishot will be waiting. By the way: you can take screenshots any time you like by pressing the PRINT key. Captures will most likely be located in C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Screenshots.

Configuration
via Interface > Addons > Multishot or type /multishot into the chat window.

Updates
You will have to update Multishot every once in a while. Blizzard constantly adds, removes or updates mobs. Multishot would not be aware of these changes otherwise.

Troubleshooting
Multishot might not work as expected after new content patch has been released: every now and then "false positives" will sneak into the database. Those can easily be spotted in debug mode. Please drop me a line so that I can blacklist them as soon as possible.

Localization
Multishot works on all locales and supports localization. Please submit a translated copy of the "/Locales/Locale-enUS.lua" file if your language is not included yet. Thanks!

Development
Check out the official Multishot Thread on WoW Interface for bug reports and feature requests. You are likely to get a faster reply if you include a dancing banana in your post.

Thanks
Anyone who has contributed to Multishot: I really appreciate your help! Thanks for improving Multishot by adding new features to the source code, reporting & fixing bugs, and so on. Keep it up!

This is a very late response, but I'd like to add it anyway. According to Brajana at NoStockUI, you can turn off boss kill screenshots by editing the Multishot.lua file in Notepad. Erase or comment out (put a double hyphen before it) the following line (line 522):

self:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD")

Derpo A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 1 File comments: 40 Uploads: 0	Checking by to see if there are new updates. I love this addon, it made tons of adorable screenshots for me! Major gains in reputation would be great to screenshot too. For example: the "You are now exalted with .." sentence is usually something you worked hard enough for to have a big proud moment, one to screenshot!

xtoq An Aku'mai Servant Forum posts: 32 File comments: 641 Uploads: 3	I third the options. And I'd like to suggest some more events to take screenshots: When you kill a rare (even low level ones!) When you die on a boss fight When you engage a boss (funny for those times you accidentally aggro some world boss; could also just be world bosses) I bet there's more that people would like. Are there any plans to add options and/or more events?

Laibeus Lord A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 7 File comments: 31 Uploads: 0	Is there a setup or something? GUI, slash command, anything. I want to choose which 'event' the addon will take auto-screenshot. For example, I don't like the Hunter-Pet Level mode And others I am not aware of yet.

acleech A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	I love this mod, it does everything I need but one. A previous mod I had gave the option to print the /played time with a level screenshot. I may try to look at that one and see if I can get it in there - but thought it might be a useful option. Thanks for a great mod! Edit: Nevermind, I lucked out and managed to add the function without having a clue to what I was doing. Thanks anyway! Last edited by acleech : 11-18-08 at 08:52 PM.

The ever-talkative and overly-chatty dlui

has apparently made this happen...already. Check the addon download page for the update.

Zidomo A Cliff Giant Forum posts: 76 File comments: 1053 Uploads: 0	Well, did some more research & worldboss is only returned for sure on raid bosses. Not 5-man bosses; those are either elite or (for a handful of various rare spawns) rareelite. Cannot, of course, use elite for 5-man boss detection as you would have hundreds of screens after every dungeon run . So yes, looks like a mob database is needed for 5-man instances. It isn't needed for raid bosses, though, unless they change the classification of the WotLK ones.

Zidomo A Cliff Giant Forum posts: 76 File comments: 1053 Uploads: 0	Fantastic screenshot mod. Low resource usage and works without errors currently on the things it takes screenshots for (I really like its achievement screenshot capability). One thing that may make it even more efficient & less of a hassle to keep updated, though. It currently uses mob IDs to judge what bosses to take screenshots for. Every time a new boss is added, you have to update the database. For less updating hassle and/or more efficiency, perhaps instead do it as MementoMori does. Instead of relying on a mob ID list, just detect the "worldboss" UnitClassification for a mob.
