Steam Community :: Save Thing As Image

Picollo May 6 @ 8:26am

Was hoping that I'll be able to make 4 sided images and use these as tokens for my rpg campaign, so not having weapons in side images will make things much more problematic.
Anyway, thanks for very fast reply.

@Picollo Not easily, I usually just export the weapon as its own image

Picollo May 6 @ 7:39am

Would it be possible to export drafted pawns with weapons drawn?
I wanted to showcase weapons in pawn's hands, but the images are exported without items.

@Avokant Can you see a pattern in what beards/hairs that has this issue?

Avokant Sep 14, 2024 @ 10:05pm

Hey @Mlie, Having a visual glitch with beards and some hairs when saving as image. The beards appear to be transparent when placing it on other images, not sure what is causing this transparency issue.

Oh dangit, Unity. Thanks for looking

Mlie [author] Apr 3, 2024 @ 8:02am

@allbad Had a look at it and sadly Unity only has support to put text into the clipboard.

allbad Apr 3, 2024 @ 7:38am

This is turning out to be a real timesaver for me too! How difficult would it be to add an option to save an image to clipboard? This would cut out a couple of steps in my workflow. Thanks!

OMG, no more GIMP hassle of cutting things out and removing backgrounds. What a life saver.

Vanessa Reyes Mar 2, 2024 @ 9:20pm

It seems that it doesn't matter if a Cryptosleep casket has a person inside or not, it will always be saved as if it were full. Think you can look into it?

Avokant Nov 14, 2023 @ 5:38pm

Thanks for looking into it for me! @Mlie

Mlie [author] Nov 14, 2023 @ 1:28pm

@Avokant Had a look at that and the save-location is tricky as it needs to validate it across windows, mac and linux. I have no way of testing those.
The head thing is a no since I cant find a way to only draw the head-graphics without deconstructing the drawing method and leaving out the body.
Sorry

Avokant Nov 14, 2023 @ 12:25am

Hey Mlie! I had a couple feature requests that would be awesome if implemented.
1. Ability to change save location for images in the mod menu.
2. A toggle or some kind of ability to save the head seperate from the body.

Thanks!

There are definitely some issues with overlapping alpha blending, but I'm pretty sure they're present in the game itself, you just don't notice them until you isolate the sprite and put it on a white background. I just backfill the sprites with black if they have such spots and you get basically what you see in-game.

파라과이 Feb 20, 2023 @ 1:34am

I apologize if I've wasted your time.

파라과이 Feb 20, 2023 @ 1:34am

Aliasing to borders. Yes, it's hard to see, but when magnified, it's annoying. also one thing is clear, though, when I looked at the image on the character editor, it was clearer even without the lighting and weather effects applied. But come to think of it, it wasn't a huge problem.

Mlie [author] Feb 20, 2023 @ 1:27am

@파라과이 Very hard to see there, but then its not resolution but some image effects? Perhaps weather effects and lighting?

파라과이 Feb 20, 2023 @ 1:24am

If I'm not mistaken, the results of the save thing as image mod stand out for aliasing and dots. (shareable link) https://imgur.com/CU4gYmK

Mlie [author] Feb 20, 2023 @ 1:14am

@파라과이 I tested this and from what I can tell they look the same in game as saved.
Is there some other setting?

파라과이 Feb 19, 2023 @ 10:16pm

ah, also i turned off the vanilla framework expanded's 'texture cashing', so it works just fine in game, just exported version is not that hi res.

파라과이 Feb 19, 2023 @ 10:14pm

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/comments/2930015327 2048 resolution setting, i uses anthrosonae https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2902258418 and https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2890928741 krieg outfits, and camera+, and this save thing as image mod. i also uses the vanilla framework expanded and other mods, but i think the other mods are not involved to lowres picture problems

Mlie [author] Feb 19, 2023 @ 9:57pm

@파라과이 It uses the in-game functions for rendering the images. Perhaps that mod overrides those, can you link to it?

파라과이 Feb 19, 2023 @ 9:45pm

I would like to get a slightly higher resolution image. It's sad that it's not as sharp as the in-game images obtained with photoshop and the hd pawn rendering mod ;( Is it possible to improve on this?

d_valroth Feb 12, 2023 @ 10:24am

Nice on the large creature fix, I had noticed that sufficiently large add on parts for pawns would exceed the capture area as well, so no more Photoshop fall backs. :)

Nianor Feb 10, 2023 @ 10:00am

@Mlie Thanks! That was impressively fast. Your record as one of the legends of Rimworld modding continues.

Doomsdayjob Feb 10, 2023 @ 9:06am

okay i guess i don't get it because i don't do modding
but i hope this will be good for the modding community!

-RedTrainer Feb 10, 2023 @ 8:45am

This mod will increase my Mod making speed by 6x Times

Arylice Feb 10, 2023 @ 6:43am

"No, it will not apply external effects. At least not yet."
Good, I like my pictures clean

Mlie [author] Feb 10, 2023 @ 6:39am

@Nianor Skywolf Okay, I had another idea and it should now work on any large pawn.
Silly solution, I just scan the finished texture and see if the edge-pixels are transparent. If not I zoom out a bit and try again. Might cause a slight lag spike when generating very large pawns but it works.

Mlie [author] Feb 10, 2023 @ 6:36am

@Araylie No, it will not apply external effects. At least not yet.

Arylice Feb 10, 2023 @ 6:34am

"When used you can click on any Thing in game and it will export the graphic as seen in game."

Just to be clear, if there's rain and it is night time IN GAME,
the picture I take will have the rain and night effects?

Mlie [author] Feb 10, 2023 @ 5:14am

@Nianor Skywolf Tried that mod and it seems that it overrides the draw-size instead of changing the actual body-size of the pawn. You can see that in the portrait of the pawn since it is too big for that as well. This mod uses the same function for printing pawns as the colonist bar so should work with any pawn that changes the actual bodysize.

Signur Feb 10, 2023 @ 3:21am

*clap clap*

mod of the century

Arylice Feb 10, 2023 @ 1:39am

OMG, This is what I needed! Where were you?? It is a life changing mod for modders!

ChrisTheFool Feb 10, 2023 @ 12:24am

I didn't know I needed this, but its really cool! Thank you!

Mlie [author] Feb 9, 2023 @ 11:34pm

@Nianor Skywolf Can you link to that mod?

Nianor Feb 9, 2023 @ 11:14pm

I tested it on a Jotun from Big and Small Races, I suspect it's humanlike-specific.

Mlie [author] Feb 9, 2023 @ 10:55pm

@Nianor Skywolf Tested it on Thrumbos and Mechs. What large pawns are you having issues with?
Weapons and other dynamic graphics is tricky. Ill add it to the list of things to do

Nianor Feb 9, 2023 @ 10:29pm

(Also, would it be possible to make it also capture held items/weapons?)

Nianor Feb 9, 2023 @ 10:28pm

This is awesome, doesn't seem to work right on oversized pawns though, it crops them too small.

Pablo Discobar Feb 9, 2023 @ 9:08pm

Mlie, you and your works have been essential. Thank you!

bearhiderug Feb 9, 2023 @ 6:25pm

just wiow
the potential!

Johnnyloo Feb 9, 2023 @ 3:06pm

Your mod is the holy grail of vanilla styled mods. I thank you deeply for it

LeAnomalocaris Feb 9, 2023 @ 2:27pm

Yay, no more cutting things out with Photoshop!

Thain Feb 9, 2023 @ 1:23pm

This is awesome. Render Textures in memory have always been a memory issue. But this may come in handy as a way around that for other scenarios.

LookToWindward Feb 9, 2023 @ 5:14am

Thanks!

Mlie [author] Feb 9, 2023 @ 4:58am

@LookToWindward The in-game confirmation message shows the exact path but it tries the Desktop folder first, but if that does not exist it uses the game-folder. Same logic as the vanilla translation report creation

LookToWindward Feb 9, 2023 @ 4:24am

Where does the image file get stored on disk? I mean what folder?

Latex Santa Feb 9, 2023 @ 12:06am

This will be outstanding not just for modders, RimWorld content creators but also for memes as well. Thank you, good modder.
