    Yes, although many report that the screenshots turn up blank. I am told it has something to do with the anti-aliasing setting. Also, you need a program to convert .tga to .jpg or .bmp's.

    FRAPS can be downloaded here; Howie's screenshot program is available here. Howie's has the advantage of being able to save in .jpg, which takes less space, however FRAPS is more stable in my experience, and if you register it (and pay a small fee) it'll also save in .jpg's.

    That is interesting. Well, i think i have anti-aliasing disabled.
    A free program which can open and convert .tga is for example GIMP, for anyone who is interested in this method.

    Irfanview is really handy for batch converting .tgas to .jpegs.

    Like Lysimachos, I just use print screen and grab the screens from the TGA folder.

    Read The House of Seleukos: The History of the Arche Seleukeia
    for an in-depth and fascinating history of the heirs of Seleukos Nikator.

    I actually prefer Ati-tool over Fraps. It also allows me to adjust my fan speed on the fly, which definitely helps with the temperatures around here...

    Yeah, me too. I use Gimp. Doing it this way, you can take hundreds of screens in one go.

    Default AW: Screenshots

    I use FSScreen. It was originally developed for MS Flight Simulator. It's very simple and does not slow down your game, but the disadvantage is that it saves in a row from fsscr.000 to fsscr.999. So I have to rename almost every picture I want to take, which are normally quite a lot. I have over 500 pictures left from my recent Carthage campaign. And I have already deleted the bigger part of my screenies...

    Does anyone know a screenshot-program which is able to automatically rename screenshots?
