# Screenshot Unlocker
Some Wii U games and apps disable the upload of screenshots to Miiverse and Web
Browser. This plugin removes this restriction, to always enable screenshot uploads.
Note: this plugin has no relationship to the [official Screenshot
plugin](https://github.com/wiiu-env/ScreenshotWUPS) from Aroma.
## Usage
This plugin has no settings. Just open any game or app that would normally disable
screenshots, and try to upload them (to a web page, or to Miiverse); you'll see the
screenshot of both gamepad and TV are available for posting.
### Uploading to web pages
Most free image upload websites on the internet use either JavaScript or SSL certificates
that the Wii U's web browser doesn't support. To test image uploads, I created a test web
server in Python/CherryPy that I run on my local network:
https://github.com/dkosmari/imgupload-server . With this, you can upload screenshots
directly to your PC.
## Build Instructions
If you got the source from a release tarball, you can skip step 0.
Build steps:
0. `./bootstrap`
1. `./configure --host=powerpc-eabi`
2. `make`
This is a standard Automake package. See `./configure --help` for more options.
## Build Instructions (Docker version)
If you have Docker available, just run the script `docker-build.sh`.
