Make sure your partners drawers are all secured

My partners drawers are so secure that I struggle to gain access!:rotfl:

Hi all! This is my first post here. I started off playing Silent Service on a Commodore 64. I found Silent Hunter I many years later. And I just started playing SHIII a few weeks ago. I haven't upgraded to GWX yet, but I think I will after I go through a career at least until 1942 or so. I did install several small mods, though.
My question is, I cannot seem to find screenshots after I take them. I hit ctrl-F11 and the screen freezes up for a split second. After I exit the game, there are absolutely no new .bmp images in the SH folder or anywhere else on my computer. Any ideas?

WELCOME ABOARD!

They should be in the main SH3 folder, labelled "SH3Img@4-30-2008_20.46.30_422"

The numbers will be different, of course, but that's how it should look.

you can just press the "PrtScn" key on your keypad then open up any art program (microsoft office picture Manager is a good one its in office tools)
then just point to the middle of the page and right click and paste then you can edit it and save it as a Jpeg

I figured out why I couldn't take a screenshot. I am running Vista and have SH3 installed in program files. I had to manually configure my settings to allow the "user" of my computer to make changes to any files under program files. Now that I can take pics I am all set!

Jimbuna · 05-21-08, 12:38 PM

Looking forward to seeing what you post

Lol nevermind after a very long while i realised now how it works LOL

I push CTRL+F11...and I have no screenshots that I can find anywhere? Where should they be found? And, if they are not there (as I've looked in every conceivable place), what have I broken and how do I fix it?

Nope...it's "broken" then as I have nothing in my SH3 directory. How do I fix that?

bert8for3 · 01-14-09, 10:04 AM

Try Ctrl+PrtScr (if you're using the res fix, F11 may be disabled).
