Play Final Fantasy XV while the tool is in background

FFXVSnapshot is a tiny program that performs two main functions:The program is built using Windows Presentation Foundation framework, based on .NET Framework 4.7. Thus, it should work as-is on any up-to-date Windows 10 computer that can also run the game. On older versions of Windows you may need to install .NET Framework 4.7 runtime manually.The tool is open source. Both the compiled tool and the source code are available from https://codepad.info/games/ffxv/ffxvss.html While the tool is very simple to use, the webpage linked above also has more detailed instructions on its usage.The basic usage is this:As long as the program is running in background, all snapshots taken in the game will be automatically converted and stored in your selected location. This happens immediately after the picture itself is taken. That is, by the time you are to select what photos to keep when camping or resting in a motel, all of those pictures have already been stored and you don't need to worry about choosing which ones to save. You can of course later manually delete the converted JPEG files that you don't want to keep.
