Unable to take screenshots
« on: July 30, 2004, 12:32:37 AM »
When I pause a film in the film viewer (in order to get my preferred magnification/angle) and press 'alt s', I'm unable to find the screenshot in my AH2 directory . I'd be very grateful if someone could tell me what I'm doing wrong.

In film viewer, you can take pics by hitting the "print screen" key on your keyboard.  What that does it take a picture of your entire desktop.  You then can open a paint document (or whatever you prefer) and edit it so only the picture you want shows, without the rest of the desktop in the picture.

Now that the latest patch seemed to fix the game up really well...

I propose that the next patch contain a major re-work of the Film Viewer.  The viewer is buggy as hell, and it REALLY should have one button that we can click for a full-size screenshot.
