kb6583 Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 I'm really embarrased to bring this topic up because must be missing something obvious here. Still playing Hatten as the US. So I get a company-size infantry unit as reinforcements in 2 1/2 ton trucks. I move them into Hatten, disembark them, and move them into adjoining buildings. Among those reinforcements that are disembarked and deployed into adjoining buildings are 30cal MGs. I specifically give them orders to "Deploy Weapon". Later on I check on those MGs as at this point they haven't become engaged yet. They're still showing "Not Deployed". I scroll in as close as I can and four so-called MGs are literally showing NO MG icons among the soldiers supposedly manning these now seemingly absent MGs. So I scroll to other "Deployed" MG teams and their MG icons are clearly visible. What happened to the MGs of those other MG teams? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warts 'n' all Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 A screen shot or two would be helpful. It normally takes a few minutes for them to deploy in buildings. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kb6583 Posted November 12, 2022 Author Share Posted November 12, 2022 Warts 'n' all, Somewhere in a previous post I submitted I was instructed on how to actually make a screen shot and post it to this forum. I'll be darned if I can find it. Can you instruct me on how to do this? This time I'm going to print it out and save it for posterity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMac Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 I'm thinking there should be a button on top-right of your keyboard 'PRT SC SYS RQ.' 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kb6583 Posted November 15, 2022 Author Share Posted November 15, 2022 Tried it - nothing I'm afraid. Unless the print screen went somewhere on my hard drive I'm not aware of. I seem to recall that there was a an app that allowed one to get a good screen shot in game without busting the max file size requirements. Can anyone out there help? I'd love to try to find out what happened to these MGs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to try to find out what happened to these MGs. I use a programme called FRAPS.. it's pretty simple to use and it works with CM. Not all image capture software does. I then upload the resulting image to imgur.com (no registration needed, just drag and drop) and I post the resulting image link here. Just remember to remove the "[IMG] .... [/IMG]" parts of the link if you want the image to appear directly in the thread so the user doesn't have to click on the link to see it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artkin Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Print screen, open MS paint ctrl v to paste image into MS paint save, and upload image. Usually it takes a couple tries print screening to get what you actually want. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't work on my end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
