Screen caps

U812 · 03-08-10, 12:59 AM

So I hit print to screen like always, open a new file in Photo Shop and paste. But I get either my desktop or the pinup girl in the beginning of the trailer? All my other games work this way. Some games even have a folder in documents for the screen caps.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Anyone?

Thanks,

Steve

Ctrl-F11 is the in game screenshot key. It'll save as a BMP file (please convert to something more web friendly before posting) in your install folder.

I know that in SH3 the screenshot command was Ctrl-F11. Not sure what it is in the new game. I know that with Church's key mod it's the same as SH3 but I don't know what the default for SH5 is. To sum up, try F11.

Screens should be in the Silent Hunter 5 folder.

Thanks guys but where does it put it? What folder?

Don't worry it will be a jpeg. I know graphics and CGI animation. I do that for a living. Print to screen always worked before but not for this game.

Thanks again,

Steve

Where ever you installed SH5 to. C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\ by default
