Dune

Anyone knows how to take screenshots in DUNE? (runs under DOS) :S
Thanks,

You need a screen-capture utility. There are some links to some Here.

Thank you! *testing*

Sorry nothing worked. The programs I installed do not seem to be running.... :S
I'm using Win XP it that helps

can't you use the 'print screen' key on the keyboard, or doesn't that work on DOS?

 

[Gelion]

If it was that simple I wouldn't be asking it

You could run Dune in Windows with DOSBox and then take screenshots.

seems like that would work to me too. What does it do when you do that. Does it even do anything?

 

[Gelion]

No nothing. Nothing in the clipboard, no sounds made by screen capture programs - nothing!
I'm talking about Dune 1 btw , although I'm sure Dune 2 is similar ...

 

[citizen001]

and i though print screen worked for all platforms and programs!

 

[ainwood]

Well, I'm just impressed that you've got a dos game to work in XP! Wanna tell me how I can get privateer 2 going?

 

[Gelion]

For some reason it always worked . I had very few problems to run any DOS games under any OS.... Whats Privateer 2 - "Pirates!" ? I love old games - they were done with so much effort .
With Dune I guess I will take shots of the screen...

P.S. Anyone want to chat about Dune?

 

[Dell19]

I would chat about the book but I've never played the game...

If anyones interested there making a dune scenario in the civ2 scenario section.

 

[Gelion]

I'm for it. Shoot....

durn, I kept looking at threads like this thinking they are about one of the old board games I used to play.

 

[Yuri2356]

Dune had a board game? What was that like?

 

[Joeb WK]

This site gives you a bit of info about the board game. http://www.arrakis.co.uk/parker.html
