Thanks for the help

If I try to use this code, I get the error message:

Invalid call: Nonexistent function 'queue_screen_capture' in base 'Viewport'.

I'm using Godot v.3.1. How can I get this code to work?

---

queue_screen_capture() and get_screen_capture() don't even exist in Godot 3.x

Try with this:

var img = get_viewport().get_texture().get_data()
yield(get_tree(), "idle_frame")
yield(get_tree(), "idle_frame")
var tex = ImageTexture.new()
tex.create_from_image(img)
$sprite.texture = tex

But I haven't tried yet ...

Answer 3

I would refer you to Volzhs' answer here: https://godotengine.org/qa/3313/capture-frame-and-show-it-as-sprite

You need to yield an idle frame or defer, since the request isn't fulfilled until the next frame.

Answer 4

In the examples viewport/screen_capture there is a complete example you can study, get them here;

Maybe I do not understand the question put. Screen I need to save in image.png.
