Capturing screenshots?


Voyager

Recommended Posts

Look in your save game holder for dcs and find folder dedicated for your screenshots.

I use the print/screen/sysRq key on my keyboard to capture screenshots.

Hmmm...

 

So C:\Users\Voyager\Documents\SavedGames just has folders for Bleed and Flotilla

 

When I did try to map the control is was greyed out, but it did list "Sys Rq" (Print Screen) as the button for it. Could it be locked out somehow?

It should be the same keys as if you were to take a screenshot in Windows, and there is no visual cue, in-game, that shows that a screenshot has been taken.

 

 

Screenshots should be found in your Saved Games folder: (e.g.) C:\[user]\Saved Games\DCS[.openbeta]\Screenshots

 

 

Hope this helps.

Also, the default screenshot format is PNG; you can change it to JPG by adding this line:

 

options.graphics.ScreenshotExt = "jpg" 

 

on the file:

 

 

/saved Games/dcs/config/autoexec.cfg

Ah, thank you. That was what I was missing. It was in the saved games directory directly under {user} rather than the one in documents.

 

Unfortunately, carrying many years of documents and saved games does lead to a rather complex network of saved files..
