Print screen

m113apc · #1 January 23rd, 2009, 08:14 PM

I’m trying to print screen of my map, that I can attach to an AAR I’m making.

But the picture when I paste it in to Paint is all black and blurry. You may see some contours of the map, but that’s all.

Any idea of why, or tip of how to do it?

I’m attaching an example.

Try running your game, temporarily, in window mode and then do ALT-PRINTSCREEN.

That should do it.

Thx RERomine & Bob

See the Game Guide -> Tuning Your Machine -> Windowed Mode Paragraph, sentence beginning "There is no need of any external screen capture mode when using Windowed Mode..."
