    Default Screenshots...

    I have see plenty of cool AARs in the forums with great picture supports. I remember in m2tw to take screenshots you just had to press 'prnt scrn' button and the screenshot was saved on the 'tgas' file. I tried the same with shogun 2 fots and...well errr...I have no idea if it worked or where it might be stored if it succeded... any idea how you take screenshots?

    F12, then they should show when you leave the game. If they don't then go to your steam library at the bottom you'll see your recently taken screenshots.

    Yep F12, and when you close the game, you can choose which one you want to upload, and add captions to it.

    maybe another tip: if you press "k" when on the battlefield, the interface (map, unit cards etc..) dissapears. this way you can get some really nice screenshots without those interface or "game paused" hovering over it.

    good luck

    Steam has a key which you can press to take screenshots (F12 I think), however you can use another software like FRAPS to take your screenshots (FRAPS can film the game too).

    But yeah. F12, or whatever program strikes your fancy.
