Masta Revan Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 Ive been wanting to take screenshots on my PC Kotor game and I don't know how. Can anyone help? I pitty the fool who don't have the force.
Dyan Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 (edited) use "print screen" ("Prt Scr") and then paste it into a program like paint. Edit: be warned though - it may turn out quite dark. Edited January 18, 2006 by Dyan HK47: Commentary: It is not possible to destroy the master. It is suggested that you run while my blasters warm, meatbags. Bastila to Revan: You are easily the vainest, most arrogant man I have ever met! Canderous to Bastila: Insults? Maybe if your master had trained your lightsaber to be as quick as your tongue you could have escaped those Vulkars, you spoiled little Jedi princess!
LadyCrimson Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 If they're dark just use a graphic editor to lighten them up a bit. Also, hitting print screen (us pc version anyway) the game will save them to the program files/lucasarts/swkotor2 folder as a sequentially numbered .tga file. Thus you can wait until after you're done playing to view/edit them all. “Things are as they are.

Judge Hades Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 Also it puts them out as TGA files. If you want bitmap or JPEG output you might want to download FRAPS and use that instead. http://www.fraps.com/
Masta Revan Posted January 19, 2006 Author Posted January 19, 2006 I pushed on the PrtScrn button but nothing happend have any other suggestions or am I doing it wrong I pitty the fool who don't have the force.
Wild Storm Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 I suggest downloading Fraps instead and use that. The images are lighter and they don't come out as images that Photoshop would open but regular PNG and JPGs.
Masta Revan Posted January 19, 2006 Author Posted January 19, 2006 I would but it always turns out that I would get some type of virus on my computer so I try to avoid that from now on I pitty the fool who don't have the force.
LadyCrimson Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 (edited) You might have one of those versions where you may have to enable screenshots (set it to '1') in the swkotor2.ini file, located in the default game install directory. P.S. The problem w/stuff like Fraps too is that I think you get their logo on every image if you don't want to pay for it...or amybe that's just on Hypersnap...I get them mixed up.

Wild Storm Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 You can turn off the frame rate number in screenshots. And you don't need to worry about Fraps. If your really concerned about your downloads System Pack 2. Comes with a security center that should warn you if something malicious is on something.
LadyCrimson Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 (edited) I love Fraps for movies...but I haven't liked it for screenshots. I like Hypersnap much better. Just personal preference. Edit city tonight - they're both safe, as long as you get them from their official sites. Edited January 19, 2006 by LadyCrimson “Things are as they are.

HK-47_THE_MEATBAG_KILLER Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 What program do you open TGA files in? "Are you an angel? Aw, I'm just kidding. That's the worst line I've ever used. Hope some poor kid doesn't start using it."

LadyCrimson Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 Do a Google for "graphic editors" You'll find one. “Things are as they are. Looking out into the universe at night, we make no comparisons between right and wrong stars, nor between well and badly arranged constellations.” – Alan Watts
