How to take a screenshot of the game view in Unity

How do you take a screenshot of the game view without external sources like Snipping Tool or Lightshot, like to take a screenshot with the resolution i configured in my Game View window. Like i want to take a 4k screenshot for my desktop, store page or share with friends.

Solution

  • Unity has a screenshot tool already. It's called Recorder and doesn't require any coding.

    1. In Unity, go to the Window menu, then click on Package Manager
    2. By default, Packages might be set to "In Project". Select "Unity Registry" instead
    3. Type "Recorder" in the search box
    4. Select the Recorder and click Install in the lower right corner of the window
    5. That's about all you need to get everything set up and hopefully the options make sense. The main thing to be aware of that setting "Recording Mode" to "Single" will take a single screenshot (with F10)
