Moxie_01 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Trying to find a solution to this. Everytime I take a Screen shot using the Prt Scr button and paste it to Paint program all I get is black. I don't know what would be causing this or how to fix it. Any ideas?

Leader RedBaird Posted October 15, 2013 Leader Share Posted October 15, 2013 Same thing for ET, but PrtScr does work when the game is in window mode, just not in full-screen mode. That makes sense, as windows functions have to be used to make the window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use in game or other screen shot functions such as steam or xfire. /screenshojpeg in console for COD4 function, F12 for steam, scroll lock s for xfire.

LainTime/Bazingaa^_- Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 bind F12 "screenshotJPEG" or use xfire to take SS by pressing scroll lock - s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomex78 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 i meaning in the past i had no problems with ingame ss on windows xp. ok Moxie use bind F11 "autoscreenshot" or bind F11 "screenshotJPEG" or other key, i have F11 for SS and F12 for demo record ! than look in your et or cod screenshot folder ! cya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
putts Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 in console, type this in: /bindlist it will give you the list of ALL key binds. F12 from a fresh install will screenshot as a jpeg (i think jpeg). you can bind it to any key like said prior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A. Pirate Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 You can use Xfire's screenshot option too. I think the default command is Scroll Lock + S. I prefer this option because it uploads their server as soon as you exit your game and you likely won't lose it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moxie_01 Posted October 18, 2013 Author Share Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) i meaning in the past i had no problems with ingame ss on windows xp. ok Moxie use bind F11 "autoscreenshot" or bind F11 "screenshotJPEG" or other key, i have F11 for SS and F12 for demo record ! than look in your et or cod screenshot folder ! cya Tried this and it doesn't work. Used /bind F12 screenschotJPEG but I don't get any SS. Or do I need the " in there? Got it to work! Now the wierd thing is, is that the Prt Scr button used to work. All I did was reinstall the game. The same settings and everything are the same. Thanks for the assistance guys! Edited October 18, 2013 by Moxie_01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
