| This is limited by max frambuffer size and VRAM size, I think it is not bigger than 2048*2048 or 4096*4096. However, it is possible to make mosaic image - render several shots with their own camera settings and glue them in a single seamless image.

| It'd be good, many of us enjoy taking screenshots, these tools could help to take better screenshots.
I think SE could have a screenshot mode, where you choose LOD and something else that could be implemented in the future, place the camera, take the screenshot and wait for some minutes (or hours maybe? lol). SE would render everything, just like in the videos of 0.95, and then the screenshot would be taken.
I mean, imagine you're going to take a Screenshot of a planet from space, where you can see the whole planet or at least a part of it. Instead of rendering everything and then taking the screenshot, SE would render a small part of the planet with very high details, then take a screenshot of that part; So it would render another part and take another... In the end we would have just one picture, mounted automaticaly like a mosaic, but perfect and with all the planet seen in a high level of details, much higher than any screenshot ever taken until now.
Is that possible? If possible, is that very hard to make?

| I have a different question. I don't want to capture screenshots at 4000x4000 or something like that. My question is the following: I have got a 1680x1050 monitor, and I would like to save screenshots at native resolution, but I need to run the game at a lower resolution to run smooth, so could I save screenshots at 1680x1050 running the game at 1440x900?

Pentium G3260 @ 3.30GHz
8.0 GB DDR3
AMD Radeon HD 5570 1GB

| In current version you can do it only by switching to fullscreen mode (Ctrl-Enter).

Interesting... Well, I'm not asking you to do it, but I think it would be beautiful...

| As a photographer, I would really really really love this. More than any feature. Just spent the last 5 hours in this program taking screenshots, but they're only 1080p  Would be great if I could get some up to like 4 or 5000px

| There's a utility that does this already.
