Am I doing something wrong, I've got photo mode working I think, although I don't understand all the extra tabs like raiderpose3 etc. and the list of all my mods and extensions. Why that's necessary I don't know, although that's besides the point I'm asking (though if anyone wants to help and answer that one, feel free). No, what I wanna know is; I can't seem to get my character to be visible when taking a photo, even when I toggle the character invisible/visible button on or off. All I can do is take random shots of NPCs or my companions, which is ok I suppose, but I would like shots of me too.
Are you in first person or third person? To see the character, you have to start Photo Mode in third person. It was the same with the old Photo Mode too.
No, that's not the issue at all. I've tried being in 3rd person, 1st person, the problem is the same. Any companion I'm with shows up fine, other NPCs in the background working in a settlement or moving past (like a trader, enemies etc.) appear as well, but my character is not visible in photomode, no matter what I do.
Made a bug report, but there's a strange issue that only appears in Photo Mode screenshots that I haven't been able to figure out. For some reason, there's a weird glitch - presumably with the overlay system, the only other thing I can think of is Depth of Field and that never caused this issue with oldgen Photo Mode so I have no idea if it's the source here - where when you take a screenshot, certain things in the background turn translucent.
Example below:
As you can see, and this post is more for other users than the author, the ground appears to be strangely translucent. It's almost as though the terrain was interpreted as an alpha mask, or something similar to a PFM depth map (if anyone knows how PFM depth maps work, they essentially are grayscale images used for color correction in the Source Filmmaker rendering community) got turned *into* an alpha channel.
As I'm sure you can imagine, while it's not a completely unusable mod, the extra step of removing the alpha channel feels unnecessary. I should be able to just take and share a screenshot without worrying about removing transparency from said screenshot.
is there a way to change the snap button on controller? everytime i set something it takes a snap. also navigating the camera on controller always rotates the player character, a fault on my end ? need advice ^^
For anyone that's not finding the photos on the "My documents" thing, just go to steam, right click on fallout 4, and view local files, ur photos should be there

For the rest, nice work.
Also, I would change the Take Snapshot button as it interferes with the dropdowns or toggles
