operating Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 First off: Are screenshots produced by using Ctrl key and the p key? Do screenshots go to desktop or a folder/file where a (where a screenshot can be converted to jpg or jpeg) screenshot then can be sent to desktop? From desktop can these jpeg screenshots be attached to a forum post, pm ect..? I'm new here and waiting for UPS to deliver my copy of this game. However, I have been a Matrix CTGW forum member for years, screenshots there can be converted to jpeg, placed on desktop, then attached to posts-PMs-emails-ect.... I was wondering if that can be done here also? Or do I have to get a photo server? (I'd rather not) I'd like to keep it simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xwormwood Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Hi operating, and welcome to this forum! I may be wrong, but I think there is no screenshot function within the game. At least i do my by pressing the print key on my keyboard, next thing is to Tab-out of the game and paste the captured screen into paint shop, and from there i save it. To uploads i use photobucket.com. Btw.: while you wait for your game, you might want to read this forum thread: Information for new players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accoma Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Actually you can take screenshots, higher quality PNGs use F11 and for lower quality JPGs use the F12 key. They are saved in the screenshotfolder in your game folder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

operating Posted August 1, 2015 Author Share Posted August 1, 2015 (edited) Hmmm! Never tried PNGs before, I have to wonder if the other forums would allow posting with PNGs?One of the things I noticed in AARs here is: They did not appear all that clear...

operating Posted September 4, 2015 Author Share Posted September 4, 2015 Here's a screenshot generated from the SCWWI/Breakthrough game: http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=3904780that could not be posted here, regardless scroll down the posts at the suggested site to where you will find a big beautiful screenshot that should have been able to post/attach here... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
