BGRIMM Posted May 19, 2004 Share Posted May 19, 2004 HOW DO YOU CAPTURE IMAGES FROM THE PC GAME?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snivlem_eht Posted May 19, 2004 Share Posted May 19, 2004 the "print screen" button on your keyboard. right above the "insert" key. once you've pressed that, open up any imaging software, click on "File New" and click 'paste'. there you go now do magic. if your keyboard doesn't have the print screen button then i have no idea.

Kccitystar Posted May 19, 2004 Share Posted May 19, 2004 I personally use Fraps http://www.fraps.com It lets you pick a hotkey so you can get screenshots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(cause of the minimize window crash) Cause it kinda sucks that I can only take one screen shot per game with Print Screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spitoon Posted May 19, 2004 Share Posted May 19, 2004 ...Will fraps work with my Nvidia card?? (cause of the minimize window crash) Cause it kinda sucks that I can only take one screen shot per game with Print Screen. I use fraps with my Nvidia card with no problems. It saves the images to a folder, as many as you wish. You still can't minimize the game to see them, you have to wait until you are done, but while the game is running you can save as many as you want.

five Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I use fraps in conjunction with JoyToKey, which allows me to assign the select key as my "hotkey". I also set it up so I can scroll with my controller and don't have to use my mouse for every little thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to give that a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's not as cool as the consoles, because you have to move it just like a mouse and it's not as easy to control, but after tweaking, I've pretty much gotten it. Mainly I just wanted it, so I could take snapshots of the game lightning quick, w/out having to pull my keyboard out and look for the F10 key.

RsCamaro8 Posted May 21, 2004 Share Posted May 21, 2004 About Fraps... I've got it going, but I think i actually got better image quality by using print screen for screen shots... is there anyway to change the format of the screenshots to something other than a bitmap??? or to change the overall quality?
