Grab a Screenshot.....

[Shankbot de Bodemloze]

I am looking to take screenshots of my current campaign for an AAR I plan to write. Looking in the Options menu in M2TW under "Misc." in the "Keyboard Settings" option it says "Grab a screenshot < PrtScr > yet in-game I come to take a screenshot by pressing < PrtScr > and nothing happens.

Now am I just being stupid, in which case let me know, or is there a way to fix it, in which case could you explain to me what to do. Thanks

Thanks - I'll try it out

EDIT: Just downloaded it, works as you said "flawlessly" and safe to say i'll be getting loads of use out of it

If you Print Screen you will have to close the game afterwards and paste it in GIMP, Paint or similar. From here you save it and upload it. Good luck

Printscreen screenshots should appear in the tga folder in your M2TW files.

C:/ProgramFiles/sega/medieval2/tgas

Or, if you're using Windows 7/Vista check here:

C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\sega\medieval2\tgas

EDIT: Back on my computer. Had a look and they're all there , I shouldn't I've pressed < PrtScr> so much

Thanks everyone for the help Now off I got to start writing

If you are using Windows 7, use the Snipping Tool, it is much more precise than PrintScreen.
