taking screenshots

It used to be that taking 10 screenshots by binding a key, such as

bind h "r_drawplayersprites 0; wait; screenshot; wait; r_drawplayersprites 1;"

and pressing H 10 times, would result in 10 screenshots without showing the weapon sprite.

Not so any more.
Now there will be about half of them still showing the weapon.

Inserting more waits

bind h "wait; r_drawplayersprites 0; wait; wait; screenshot; wait; wait; r_drawplayersprites 1;"

seems to work.

There's no need to use multiple waits, you can add a tic count instead:

Code: Select all

wait 2

I was a bit surprised when I found out that this wasn't original to Quake.

Good to know. Thx for the tip.
Makes it look somewhat neater.

bind h "wait 2; r_drawplayersprites 0; wait 2; screenshot; wait 2; r_drawplayersprites 1;"
