This is our problem

[Mulch Diggums]

Riight... Uh...Print Screen....Paste into MS Paint..Crop..Put on an image hosting site?

[Aqizzar]

Yeah, it's a little more work, but that would do it.

Try putting the window at fullscreen.  At least then you won't have to crop it.

Screenshots - DOS Versions 1.2 and 1.4

Printscreen or alt+printscreen. You can even minimize and select the region of the screen to copy - but let's not get into that archaic method over a more effective archaic method. In any case, the screen will be stored as a device independent bitmap (or something) in your Windows clipboard.

Note, this method of taking screenshots effectively doubles the pixel size of the image for some inexplicable reason. So, instead of pasting a 320x200 pixel image into the image editor of your choice, it'll paste a 640x400 pixel image. Also note, this method will only work if you're running Windows - not in a pure dos environment (i.e. booting with a boot disk, or running a Dos 5 or 6 partition). In pure dos, you'll probably just cause your PC to print the screen on your printer (that's what it was used for way back in the old days! ).

F12 - not implemented. In the Geoscape, it'll probably toggle the text overlays.

Printscreen, Alt+Printscreen: It works, but the palette information is NOT SAVED. So when you paste the image, the colors indexes of the individual pixels are ruined. So even if you import the proper palette, the image will still be ruined. Thus - this does not work quite the way you want it to.

F12 - Saves the screen as a .tga file in the game's directory. The only way to save the image and the palette at the same time in the CE.

That's what I did. What you saw is what I got.

Did that.

[webadict]

S-s-s-sniper for me.

[Pandarsenic]

First mission completed, with soldiers up through Kashyyk included.

Photobuckety goodness should ensue...

[Pandarsenic]

Also, there are no snipers.

Only Grunts.

[Aqizzar]

Awesomeness

Is that a request for a character, Aqizzar?
