Is there a way to take screenshot in game?
 
Just press Prt Sc(Print screen) button on your keyboard-its between F12 and Scroll lock(well it is on my keyboard)
 
Does it work in AC well? OK I'll check.
You still play AC? :) I intend to make a "never ending story" with AC.
 
The Prt Scrn key works sometimes. Sometimes you get a good shot, sometimes it's just blackish like. It's hit and miss. Just gotta keep trying and eventually you'll get it.

There is a full proof way and I can't remember how to do it. You change some sort of setting in the smax folder, make a 0 into a 1 in one of the text files or something. Tried to hunt down the post I made in another forum regarding this, couldn't find it (was a few years ago).
 
If you do please post it here.
Welcome to the forum!
 
Add the line

DirectDraw=0

to the Alpha.ini file...

It should work for any game.
Press the windows button at the bottom of your screen, (after hitting print screen) and open up something like paint. Copy and past there.
NOTE: You cannot post files from paint on CFC.
mailit to somebody who can open it with a different program (like me) :mischief:
 
Merci all :). Once i;m done with comp updating I'll start the story. (University, <50% water, 3 billion years, probably 3rd level diff.)
 
just a quick question, my keyboard i starnge it has printscreen, then a line under it, and then sys req, when i press the key nothing happens, does anyone know how to take a screenine? :hmm:
 
Just press PrtScSysRq button. Then go to any graphics program and say "paste".

Does it matter? :)
 
I'm just trying to be polite, when you are trying to be annoying ;).
 
Xerxes what is the point of this? You have nothing to do?
If you didn't see there's a ";)" in my previous post. Have a sence of humour...

I suggest we stop this debate until it turns bigger, ok?
