Title: Screen shot from a film.
Post by: Obie303 on June 23, 2008, 02:41:55 PM

How the hell do I grab a screen shot from a film.  I've been trying to search the BBS and nothing.  I've read the help files....nothing.  I'm just looking for a straight answer in English.  Can anyone help?

Go to your filmviewer, find the clip. Press pause where you want to, set up your angle/zoom. Then press full-screen. After that press alt-printscreen. Then open up Paint and press Ctrl-v. Then save-as.  :aok

This was kinda dumb, but I sat there and looked for the "Printscreen" and I thought it was like alt-C or somthing, but I looked up at the top of the keyboard and saw "Printscreen"  :rofl

Heres a quick one I did today, was a squaddie of mine in AvA:
