There are a lot of memorable moments to be made while playing Rust, and while screenshots are a great way to capture these moments, players may wish to have something a little more tangible in order to properly relive the memory. Luckily, Rust has added the Instant Camera tool which allows players to take Polaroid-like pictures that they can gift to others or mount on their walls.

Members of the Rust community know the game is all about creating insane gaming moments. From tricking players into a false sense of security to joining large factions on servers, accomplishments within Rust can feel monumental no matter the size. Now, players have a way to capture and document these moments in-game allowing them to revisit their accomplishments by flipping through a tangible photo album. Well... as tangible as things can be in a virtual world.

Crafting an Instant Camera in Rust

In order to craft an Instant Camera, players will have to have purchased the Sunburn DLC which will then grant the player the recipe for the Instant Camera as well as other DLC items. Players who do not have the DLC can still obtain an Instant Camera, but they will need to acquire one from a player who has the DLC and has crafted on. Players who do not have the DLC can also learn the crafting recipe by inserting the Instant Camera into a Research Table. This will consume the Instant Camera and will cost a certain amount of Scrap. Nonetheless, here is how players who have the Sunburn DLC can craft the Instant Camera.

The recipe for the Instant Camera requires one Gear and 75 Metal Fragments making it a relatively easy tool to craft. Metal Fragments can be obtained by recycling various metal components or by smelting Metal Ore in a furnace. Recycling is a much faster process, but requires players to find a Recycler and the proper metal components to recycle. Gears can be found in a number of containers including crates, supply drops, and yellow barrels. Players can also craft Gears using a level 1 Workbench, but they require 25 Metal Fragments and 100 Scrap. Seeing as the Instant Camer recipe only requires 1 Gear, it's much faster and cheaper to scavenge for one rather than crafting.
