Never miss a level-up moment again. LevelUpScreenshot automatically takes a screenshot every time your character levels up, with your name and new level shown in chat, so every screenshot tells you exactly who leveled and when.


Features

  • Automatic screenshots on level-up. No key to press, nothing to remember. Just keep playing.
  • Name and level in the picture. Right before the screenshot, a line like "Thrall reached level 42!" appears in your chat window, so the screenshot shows who leveled and to which level.
  • Level-up screenshots stand out. Level-up screenshots are saved as PNG by default, while your normal screenshots keep their usual format. That makes them easy to find in your Screenshots folder.
  • Your settings stay untouched. The addon switches the format only for the level-up shot and restores your normal format right after, even if the game crashes in between.
  • Adjustable timing. Choose how long to wait after the level-up so the golden level-up effect is in the shot.
  • Lightweight. No frames, no libraries, no performance impact. It only does something when you level up.
  • Private. The chat line is visible only to you. Nothing is sent to other players.

Commands

All commands start with /lus.

Command What it does
/lus Shows the current status: enabled or disabled, delay and screenshot format
/lus help Lists all commands

/lus format jpg

How it works

  1. You level up.
  2. A gold line appears in your chat: "YourName reached level XX!"
  3. After a short delay (1 second by default), the addon takes a screenshot in your chosen format.
  4. Your normal screenshot format is restored immediately.

Screenshots are saved in your usual WoW screenshot folder, for example:

World of Warcraft\_retail_\Screenshots\

Tips

  • Keep your chat window visible if you want the name and level in the picture. The line is printed in the chat tab you currently have open.
  • Hiding the UI (Alt+Z) also hides the chat line.
  • Use different formats for level-up and normal screenshots so you can tell them apart at a glance. For example, keep your normal screenshots as JPG and level-up screenshots as PNG.
  • TGA files are large and aren't supported on Mac. PNG is the best choice for most players.

Compatibility

  • Retail (Midnight)
