Now let me create a batch file to help with building the project:Let me also create a clean.bat file:## Summary

I have created a complete SKSE plugin implementation for Skyrim Special Edition v1.6.1170 that captures screenshots using the Windows Desktop Duplication API. The implementation includes:

Core Files Created:

  1. CMakeLists.txt - Updated to v2.0.0 with all required dependencies
  2. vcpkg.json - Package manifest with v2.0.0
  3. PCH.h - Precompiled header with all necessary includes
  4. logger.h - Logging system with spdlog and Windows Event Log fallback
  5. ScreenCapture.h/cpp - Core screen capture functionality:
    • Desktop Duplication API wrapper
    • Support for all specified image formats
    • Compression options for TIFF and DDS
    • Multi-frame GIF support
  6. PapyrusInterface.h/cpp - Papyrus function implementations:
    • TakePhoto (latent function)
    • Get_Result
    • Cancel
    • CheckPath
  7. plugin.cpp - Main SKSE plugin entry point
  8. version.rc - Version resource file

Supporting Files:

  1. CMakePresets.json - Build configuration presets
  2. vcpkg-configuration.json - vcpkg registry configuration
  3. .gitignore - Version control ignore file
  4. README.md - Comprehensive documentation
  5. build.bat - Build automation script
  6. clean.bat - Clean build artifacts

Papyrus Scripts:

  1. PrintScreen_Script.psc - Main Papyrus interface script
  2. PrintScreen_TestScript.psc - Example usage with hotkeys

Key Features Implemented:

  • ✅ Windows Desktop Duplication API for screen capture
  • ✅ Support for PNG, JPG, BMP, TIF, GIF, GIF_MULTIFRAME, DDS formats
  • ✅ Compression options for TIFF (UNCOMPRESSED, RLE, LZW, ZIP)
  • ✅ Compression options for DDS (UNCOMPRESSED, BC1-BC7)
  • ✅ Thread-safe operation with cancellation support
  • ✅ Latent function registration for TakePhoto
  • ✅ Unique filename generation with timestamps
  • ✅ Path validation with permission checking
  • ✅ ModEvent sending on completion
  • ✅ Comprehensive error handling and logging
  • ✅ RAII resource management with WRL ComPtr

Build Instructions:

  1. Open Visual Studio 2022 Developer Command Prompt
  2. Navigate to the plugin directory
  3. Run build.bat or use CMake commands directly
  4. The plugin will be built to build/release/PrintScreen.dll

The implementation follows all specifications from v2.0.0, including proper error handling, thread safety, and all requested image format support.
