Download Game Scrapbook v0.1.7 for Windows · Full guide and shortcuts

Get started

  1. Close any older running copy, extract the complete Windows ZIP, and run GameScrapbook.exe. The runtime is included; no separate installation or account is needed.
  2. Put the board on your second monitor.
  3. With the pointer over your game screen, press Ctrl+Alt+S and drag a rectangle around the information you want.
  4. Release, then grab the selected cut-out and drag it onto the board. Release to save it and return to your game.

The Snip button provides a three-second countdown if you prefer to start without the shortcut. Existing boards, archives and settings carry over.

What you can do

  • Arrange, move and proportionally resize snips, and zoom the board.
  • Archive information for later and restore it to its saved position.
  • Delete individual snips with the centered X; use Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Y to undo and redo.
  • Choose colours, change the capture shortcut, and keep the board on top.
  • Keep captures and layout saved locally between sessions.

Confirmed game test

The project owner tested v0.1.7 successfully in a live Nivalis Nights session and confirmed that it works, including the camera/aim fix. The snipping overlay temporarily takes focus, and the pointer returns before game focus is restored.

The release also passed 21 core checks, 22 capture-lifecycle checks and 20 hidden native-window style assertions. Read the verification and live-test record.

Compatibility

This is an unsigned Windows x64 application. Other games and display modes may behave differently; windowed/borderless SDR is the intended target. Some games pause while unfocused or read background input. Exclusive fullscreen, HDR and protected capture surfaces are not universally supported.

The source and MIT/runtime licenses are included. SHA256SUMS.txt covers both ZIP downloads. Report issues or suggest improvements.
