Guest AlfieE Posted February 17, 2001 Share Posted February 17, 2001 I'm still having probs getting screen shots, can some one give me step by step instructions of how to do this with a PC running Windows 98. I've even got a copy of HyperSnap, but I still can't get CM to pop into a little window so I can take those all elusive screen shots. Doh! Why am I so PC illiterate? :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Warphead- Posted February 17, 2001 Share Posted February 17, 2001 0. Make CM display a nice screenshot 1. Press the "Print screen" key located somewhere at the upper right corner of your keyboard 2. Press the "escape" key (left upper corner of keyboard)to leave CM. Or leave CM via the normal "exit" button 3. open a paint program. MS Paint you have for sure. Better Photoshop. You can even use Word or something just to paste it in. 4. Paste it in. To do this just press "ctrl" + "v" 5. the end [This message has been edited by Warphead- (edited 02-17-2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger Posted February 17, 2001 Share Posted February 17, 2001 With hypersnap you need to enable special capture under the capture settings Also, under Options, you'll need to set the default image resolution a bit higher to get really clear, crisp pictures. This also increases the image's file size. use the "scroll lock" key to capture the screenshot while in-game. you may need to go under the Color settings down to Gamma Correction and fix the image's brightness. I usually have to use a gamma correction of 1.13 to 1.15 -Tiger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
