AutoShot Reference Guide - Vanilla World of Warcraft Addon
AutoShot is a fun addon that automatically takes screenshots at various times. The main feature is to take a screenshot at a user defined regular interval. It will also take screenshots when you level up, get an honorable kill and complete a battleground. You could easily create some really nice timelapse videos using this.

World of Warcraft: Classic Compatibility
AutoShot is compatible with World of Warcraft: Classic. Not all features have been tested.
Downloads
You can download it from the official Github. Click on "Clone or download," then "Download ZIP."
Installing
Extract the downloaded file and rename the AutoShot-master folder to AutoShot. Drag the AutoShot folder into the Interface/AddOns folder in your World of Warcraft game folder.
How to Use
The default settings will take a screenshot every 1800 seconds (30 minutes). You'll probably want to change this to something like every 300 seconds (5 minutes) if you want a more complete diary of your adventures. Do be aware that the screenshots do add up over time and can take up quite a bit of disk space, so you'll want to go through them fairly regularly to pull out the good shots and delete the rest.
