Exchange of everyday screenshots anyone?

Kind of strange how long the bullet streams last in the film viewer.  I dropped down from the high 1 o'clock position and fired as the B-17 ran through the stream.  Even though it takes a second for the flames to start, tracer ghosts are still visible from all 4 planes.

I hate you Ranger...

Are you all getting screenshots during battle or is there a way to get it off the film viewer?

[Raphael]

best way is to go to the film veiwer then hit full screen, position the camera as you wish (press F1 then F8 to move your "camera" freely) with the arrow keys, Page Up, Page Down, and the numpad for the camera angle.
Then press "Print Screen", open Paint or some other image editing program you have and "paste" (Ctrl V)
Voila, now you can mess with the image to make it prettier and then save it.

If it's got an external view or no text buffer/little overlays, then most likely it's from the viewer. If it's an internal view and shows the clipboard, or the text buffer, or something the film viewer doesn't show, then it was captured in-game. It's harder to get the precise combat/action timing down when you're in the heat of battle, but I'll often take in-game screenshots of formations and whatnot. For those I have the luxury of not needing to kill the guy in front of me, and can take my time.

Nothing better than making someone overshoot in a K4.... Especially those pesky spit16 drivers

In a 3v1 as it is, look back, a 4th spit16 200 out  

Put on the brakes, he'll fly right by....


and Finally...

Man redbull put your Atari game away.

I am very curious what your system specs are, RedBull1.

[RedBull1]

Pentium Dual-Core 2.7Ghz
3 GB RAM
Windows 7 64 Bit
Integrated graphics card

I only know this because the lil "System" tab on my Start Menu 
I don't even play with weapon effects on, so I cannot see when I hit someone with a tater, no big orange cheese puff... Just have to hope something falls off 
Like I said I play on lowest graphics with a max of about 30 FPS

I share your pain redbull,  except for weapon effects and bump mapped terrain I have to play with everything else at its lowest setting to get around 30fps; and fps rates drop like they were kicked in the gut anytime smoke, clouds, or a high concentration of planes are around.

[jd]

I was playing at 10 fps for a long time untill i finally broke down and bought a $40 graphics card. Do it, you'll be amazed/ I now get 75+ in most arenas with comparible equipment.

Other than your video card your system blows mine away.  Does it not have any PCI-Express slots to slap in a budget card?
