Repeat code until condition is true?

Hi, I’m saving a screenshot on disk and importing it as texture to be saved in a save object (couldn’t find a better way).
All good, except the code tries to import the file before it had a chance to come into existance on disk. How can I wait until it’s there?
I tried while loop, but it gets stuck in an infinite loop.

Or is there a better way of doing this? Seems like such a basic thing, maybe I’m over-complicating it?

Thanks.

Set Timer by Event/Function. Check the file, if not ready, call the timer again.

Thanks a lot. Do you know if there’s any way to store a screenshot in a texture variable, avoiding writing it to disk? Either blueprints or C++?

Use screenshot as material during runtime?

You might want to look into Scene Capture 2D. -Create a Scene Capture Component 2D in your character attach it to your camera -Create texture render target and assign it to the scene capture component. -On a button press call “Capture Scene” on it -Assign the render target to texture parameter of the material on the plain. [135927-screenshot.png] This would work if you only wanted to use the players viewpoint. if you have a 2d hud or userinterface then that would not get captured.

Well, UI doesn’t get captured with HighResShot either. Only Shot withUI, but that doesn’t let you set the resolution, and the images are quite big, around 5Mb.

Do you know if I can control the resolution with scene capture?
