How do you take a screenshot of the game view without external sources like Snipping Tool or Lightshot, like to take a screenshot with the resolution i configured in my Game View window. Like i want to take a 4k screenshot for my desktop, store page or share with friends.

It's suprisingly easy, at the end you capture a screenshot off everything you see in the game view, if you want to dont show the ui, just disable the canvas for it.

    private void Update(){
        if(Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)){ // capture screen shot on left mouse button down

            string folderPath = "Assets/Screenshots/"; // the path of your project folder

            if (!System.IO.Directory.Exists(folderPath)) // if this path does not exist yet
                System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(folderPath);  // it will get created
            
            var screenshotName =
                                    "Screenshot_" +
                                    System.DateTime.Now.ToString("dd-MM-yyyy-HH-mm-ss") + // puts the current time right into the screenshot name
                                    ".png"; // put youre favorite data format here
            ScreenCapture.CaptureScreenshot(System.IO.Path.Combine(folderPath, screenshotName),2); // takes the sceenshot, the "2" is for the scaled resolution, you can put this to 600 but it will take really long to scale the image up
            Debug.Log(folderPath + screenshotName); // You get instant feedback in the console
        }
    }
