Prints
How a print is made
- The camera crops the shot exactly to what the viewfinder showed.
- The NUI applies the filter, lighting, overlay, vignette, grain, date stamp and watermark.
- The server uploads the image.
- The print is saved with a unique ID (
sb_followed by 12 characters) and a serial number.
The inventory item only carries the photo_id. Everything else, including the image, frame, writing and metadata, is loaded from the database. This way the right image always shows.
Checks
The server confirms that the player really holds a print before any write, shake, show or tear.
