Screenshots

This may sound like a stupid question but can anyone tell me how to take those screenshots. I've never really figured it out.

Well, there are many ways to take screenshots!

One is to press print screen, then go into paint and press CTRL + V then save the picture, but this requires you to ALT-TAB out of game everytime!

Another way is to use a program like FRAPS or GAMECAM, both are designed for this purpose, and even with there free versions you can take screenies at the press of one button - with a folder you select as the save point so you dont need to ALT-TAB.

Also, if you use XFire this also has a screenshot feature, i dont remember offhand what combo of keys it is to use, you can find out easily enough on the actual program, SCROLL LOCK + something is usual XFire commands though, and again these save to your XFIRE Profile straight away so you dont need to ALT TAB out of game!


Hope that helps!

press the print screen botton on your keyboard....then paste it somewhere (from paint to photoshop....or even word...just paste it...haha) then, save it.

If you take screenshot in a total war game:

Press Print Screen
Search for tga folder
Convert it to any other, because tga isnt too good

But this not works with ETW or NTW :/
