Output Depth Map (either as separate files or a new format like exr)

Might be out of scope for the mod but I've been experimenting with ReplayMod and have found use with it's depth buffer feature, though it doesn't support orthographic views and isn't quite as simple as just pressing a button (or few)

Would there be any chance of getting a feature that exports a depth map along with a screenshot for use in things like Blender?

Thank you for your suggestion! Although it sounds like a cool feature, it is far beyond my expertise. What complicates it even more I think, is that we are not modifying the in-game camera, but just the view further up (or down) in the render chain. I am not sure if there is depth information available at that stage of the render pipeline. I would have to take a look how ReplayMod implements this.

I will not shoot this off, but the chances of me ever implementing it are small. Just out of interest, what use case do you have in mind for this feature?

The mods probably aren't compatible, are they? E.g. you can't use the depth map function of ReplayMod with the orthographic view of Mineshot?
