bardosy Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 The F12 key is the basic screenshot button in Steam, but every time when I try to use it in CMSF2, the camera show a very different part of the game-space and sometimes it select a very different unit. I checked the key bidings from the menu, but no F-keys listed. Can I redefine this function for an other key, so I can use F12 only for screenshots? (This is my first topic in the last 8 years, so pls be kind if I asked something noob) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domfluff Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 F12 is "select last unit" (apparently!). It doesn't look like you can rebind that function. I tried adding: //SELECT LAST UNIT <E>(something here) Into the hotkeys file, on the off-chance, but that didn't seem to work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bardosy Posted August 27, 2020 Author Share Posted August 27, 2020 Thank you! I guess you are right and it's not possible to redefine. It's just hard to take screenshots... Thanks for the quick reply! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, I aked about this in another recent thread as 'PrintScreen' was giving me a shot of the loading screen instead of an in-game shot. In my case the solution was to use the screen capture function of my Nvidia graphics card software (AltF1) instead and it seems to work okay but perhaps not as high definition as I'd like. Probably I need to tweak something... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually use that feature only for capturing video and I forgot it could take screenshots too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
