taking screenshots without fraps - hkkomiltinn - 07-26-2011

i was looking main_settings.cfg and noticed ScreenShotExt="jpg"
so is there way to take screenshots without using third party programs

Whoops, I feel stupid. xD
F8 does work, I tried it. (: the pictures go into your redist folder.


RE: taking screenshots without fraps - Tanshaydar - 07-26-2011

F8 takes the screenshot in game without any outside software.


RE: taking screenshots without fraps - hkkomiltinn - 07-26-2011

and what about avi recording
change ScreenShotExt="jpg" to ScreenShotExt="avi"?


RE: taking screenshots without fraps - Tanshaydar - 07-26-2011

Nope, for recording you need to use an external software.

Prefer Fraps for video recording. It has great OpenGL support after version 3.4.3 or something...


RE: taking screenshots without fraps - hkkomiltinn - 08-02-2011

can you suggest something free? then fraps


RE: taking screenshots without fraps - plutomaniac - 08-02-2011

The free version of Fraps, it is the best


RE: taking screenshots without fraps - hkkomiltinn - 08-02-2011

but its limited for 30 seconds!


RE: taking screenshots without fraps - plutomaniac - 08-02-2011

Yes but you can always find ways to deal/live with that.
