ScrapBook (Retail)  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 9.0.1.48
by: Ne0nguy [More]

About ScrapBook:

So you have hundreds if not thousands of hours on World of Warcraft right? Well what do you have to show for it? Sure your character may look pretty awesome, but that isn't very relevant if your trying to figure out what you got done last week.

ScrapBook is designed to take the most candid snapshots of your ongoing adventures in the World of Warcraft.
It takes a snapshots on specified intervals (defaulting to every 10 mins), leaving a watermark in the upper left and right corners with your characters name, realm, guild, rank, level, current xp, location, and a time stamp.

This works great if you set your Desktop or Lock screen background to a slideshow of your WoW screenshots folder. You will find lots of mid-combat shots of PvE, PvP, and Raids. Many of which are humorous or very cool looking at the least.

6 second hang

I've used this addon since I started playing and love it! However since the last update it has started hanging on me big time. Still gets the shots. But I timed it and it freezes for 6 seconds while taking it. Bit of an issue in some cases. Anything I can tweak on my side to help that?

For this reason, there may be minimal to no updates until the next expansion or major patch.

For those so inclined, the Optional Files area has been activated.

Interesting idea; gave it a try on levelling alts. But two big problems...

--The game may "continue" when this takes screenshots during combat, but it also taints. Received chat notifaction that taint was happening and in taint.log after exiting, the following:

Code:
2/20 03:31:45.921  An action was blocked in combat because of taint from ScrapBook - UIParent:Hide()
2/20 03:31:45.921      Interface\AddOns\ScrapBook\ScrapBook.lua:66 HideUI()
2/20 03:31:45.921      Interface\AddOns\ScrapBook\ScrapBook.lua:252 Watermark()
2/20 03:31:45.921      Interface\AddOns\ScrapBook\ScrapBook.lua:237 Snapshot()
2/20 03:31:45.921      Interface\AddOns\ScrapBook\ScrapBook.lua:38 TimerSnapshot()
2/20 03:31:45.921      Interface\AddOns\ScrapBook\ScrapBook.lua:29
2/20 03:31:46.421  An action was blocked in combat because of taint from ScrapBook - UIParent:Show()
2/20 03:31:46.421      Interface\AddOns\ScrapBook\ScrapBook.lua:73 ShowUI()
2/20 03:31:46.421      Interface\AddOns\ScrapBook\ScrapBook.lua:20
--This uses an extremely high amount of CPU time when you are not doing anything (and its timer is counting down between screenshots): 3 to 4 CPU/second (tested with OptionHouse, CPU profiling enabled).

Yes and No. Your screen may freeze for a split second, however the game does continue. Any spells you are currently casting (or about to cast) will be uninterrupted.
Give it a try, I have found that the most interesting screenshots in my collection are ones taken when in combat.

Hi,
I have not tried this add-on yet but I love the idea of it. I take many screen shots myself and have them setup as my screen saver. My only concern is that every time I take a screen shot myself the game pause for a second or more. That could be very bad in combat. When this mod takes a shot, does the game pause as well? If not then I will be getting it for sure.

Thanks,
Twidget

Very strange, that last patch should have taken care of it... guess I will have to try other routes of repair...

Thanks for the report. Should be fixed now.

Thanks for the report. I will add that to the checklist for 3.2 updates.

Been meaning to fix that for a while but have been very busy lately.
Hopefully that will do it. If you still have the issue after updating please let me know.
