MM1:Screenshots & 360 Photos

During any point in gameplay in Magical Mary 1, screenshots can be captured, allowing players to capture beautiful locations or remember awesome moments. This behaves exactly like the base engine this game uses, GZDoom, but there's more that can be done with screenshots than in stock GZDoom. This page will list each, using default controls.

Take a screenshot (Windows instructions)
During gameplay, press and everything on-screen will be saved to a PNG file in the "shots" subfolder whereever the game is installed. For more advanced players, bring down the console with and type , where "KEY" is the name of a key. Use SYSRQ to replace the "print screen" key's command, for example.

Now when you push that key, the status bar, crosshair, and the first-person weapon graphics will be hidden temporarily when taking screenshots, brought back afterwards. (Do be warned, this will forcibly overwrite some of your settings, enabling the status bar and changing your crosshair to the larger, additive-rendered cross.)

360 photos (advanced)
360 photos, also known as "photo spheres" or "geo panoramas", are immersive panoramic images that can be looked around 360 degrees, plus up and down. By capturing many screenshots, players can make their own, but this is a tedious process. Magical Mary 1 includes an alias that automates the screenshot-capturing process, though. Follow these steps (Windows only) to make your own 360 photos: That will work for websites like Kuula, but for Facebook and other websites, you'll need to add the missing EXIF data:
 * Walk to a location you'd like to capture a 360 photo of.
 * Stand still and bring down the console with ~ (TILDE).
 * Type, press ENTER, then close the console quickly with ~ or ESC.
 * After "Photosphere mode on. Don't touch anything!" is heard, do as it says and don't push any keys or move your mouse. Your view will automatically rotate and capture 16 screenshots at six different heights it lifts to. When you see your first-person weapon and status bar reappear, it is finished and you can safely move again.
 * Download and install Microsoft ICE.
 * Start Microsoft ICE and click "New Panorama From Images". When prompted, navigate to Magical Mary 1's "shots" folder. Select the last 96 screenshots, which should start looking at the floor, ending with the sky, then push ENTER.
 * Select "structured panorama" in the right sidebar, then enter these settings.
 * Click the next button or the "stitch" tab at the top-center of the window. After stitching completes, you'll see a distorted but stitched image in the viewer.
 * Switch to perspective or stereographic projection. Click and drag sideways to rotate your view, looking for any place where the picture looks tilted to the side. When the tilt is most noticeable, highlight a corner of the 3D view and your cursor will become a curved arrow. Click and drag to level out the photo.
 * Revert to spherical projection, then click the export tab (top center).
 * Export in the JPEG format, preferably at 100 quality. (Manually type in 100, as ICE doesn't include it in its presets.) After exporting, you can safely close Microsoft ICE without saving your project. It's also recommended to delete those 96 screenshots from your screenshots folder.
 * Upload your 360 photo JPEG to Exif Fixer, click upload, then wait for the fixed photo to appear. Download that, and you'll have a 360 photo you can upload to places that are more picky about EXIF data to allow 360 photos.
