Now Playing Take Screenshot Screen - cressie176/Load64 GitHub Wiki
Capture a screenshot of the current game state and save it to the game's media directory.
- Optionally apply the screenshot to one or more of the game's media slots (Loading Screen, Title Screen, or Gameplay Screen).
The screenshot screen has two states: Capture and Review.
Entered on navigation from Now Playing. VICE is paused. A screenshot of the current frame is captured immediately on entry. The screen is fully non-interactive during this state β no input is accepted. Because the capture is instantaneous, the screen always transitions to Review before any user input can be processed.

Focusable: No
Interactive: No
Purpose: Identify the game and current screen
Focusable: No
Interactive: No
Purpose: Display the captured screenshot for review before saving
Displays the screenshot just captured. Always shown at 4:3 aspect ratio.
Focusable: Yes (primary focus region)
Interactive: Yes
Purpose: Name the screenshot, optionally assign it to media slots, and save or cancel
A text input with no default value. On save, the name is normalised (lowercased, use only a-z, 0-9 and _), and extension forced to .png.
The user may edit the name freely. The name must be non-empty and must not contain path separators or characters invalid on the host filesystem.
A group of three independent checkboxes, all unchecked by default:
[ ] Loading Screen[ ] Title Screen[ ] Gameplay Screen
Each checkbox may be toggled independently. Any combination is valid, including none. The Cover slot is never shown here β screenshots are not suitable for cover art.
The user may navigate between the Name field and the checkboxes using directional keys. The checkboxes are part of the primary FORM focus region.
Saves the captured screenshot to the game's media directory. For each checked media slot, also assigns the saved screenshot file to that slot, replacing any existing assignment.
If the Name field is empty, the save is rejected and an error message is shown in the bottom bar: Name is required. No overlay is shown and no navigation occurs.
If a file with the same name already exists in the media directory, a confirmation overlay is shown:

| Option | Behaviour |
|---|---|
| Overwrite | Replace the existing file, return to Now Playing |
| Rename | Close the overlay and return focus to the Name input |
| Discard | Discard the captured screenshot, return to Now Playing |
Media slot assignments (from the checkboxes) are applied regardless of whether the file was overwritten or is new. Choosing Discard abandons both the screenshot file and any media slot assignments.
Returns to Now Playing on success.
Discards the captured screenshot without saving. No media slots are updated. Returns to Now Playing.

Focusable: No
Interactive: No
