Cntrl-F11 taking screen shots

1Patriotofmany · 01-21-23, 08:16 PM

Why does CNTRL-F11 only take one shot then stop taking them again? When I try to take another one, it doesn't give the confirmation of another screen shot.

EDIT:Nevermind! It is taking them, just doesn't confirm them on screen like the first.

yes, that is true.
no 1.21 gigawatts for this sailor.
i DO have solar panels but they generate only 12 kW, at most.

seriously now, PrntScrn will also work, however, the buffer will only hold one (1) screen shot and then you have to paste it into another vessel, such as a Word Doc. then, you can crop it, edit it, whatever.
you may be aware, but someone else posted nearby that PrntScrn did not work. it does, but when used within SH4, it leaves no evidence that it did, indeed, work. but it does work. one needs to paste it into something.

Yes, indeed it does work. I finally figured out it was saving "bmp" files into the main folder where the "sh4.exe" file is located, not the "save" folder where all the other stuff related to the sim are placed.

I ended up using the Ctrl+F11 combo too. Live and learn, as always.
