Is it possible to have the player using a camera and taking pictures similar to Dead Rising?
I've been trying to find any info I can on it but coming up short.
Any help would be great thanks.

well, u could make it so that when u press "F12" it shows a hud for a second and then it takes a screenie and saves it to the game's folder (which it does).

in the immortal words of cheeshead you are a forum ruiner guy!

probability states that I will know how this sentence will end FRAPPACHINO!

...technically yes. If you designed a script that allowed for the default file names generated by using the F12 command.

Now that I think about it, I'm not sure that the F12 command will work in a compiled game. Need to research that one...

...OIC.

Good to know. Taking pictures and displaying them should be possible. Create a HUD script, allowing for the default location and default file names, and it should work like a charm.

I suppose it might be worth mentioning that unless you get a mod that allows variables in scripting, I don't think you'd have a very efficient way of bringing up the correct pictures. There's no way to loop in FPI with an incrementing variable that can be concatenated onto the end of a filename, not to mention once you go over the amount of pictures taken, the moment you try to access a picture that doesn't exist... *PING!* Error!!!
