Saving Screenshots in TGA folder??

[frogbeastegg]

Print screen is the screenshot key according to the menu. I haven't used it yet though, so no idea where the screenshots end up.

When you use it the Print Screen key the first time, a TGA folder is created in the main RTW folder.

Works great

I had to change my setting from print screen to another key combination (via the options at the game menu). However all my TGA files are just big black squares. I've tried 3 different tga readers and none of them can show the screenshot. Go I went back to print screen, alt-tab, open paint, paste, save as jpg. woohoo!

Did you try the latest version of Irfanview? It's fantastic and it's free!

If this doesn't work try running Fraps in the background and use it's built-in screenshot function. With Fraps you can also make your own in-game videos (with or without sound)!

Well the one problem I can think of using the 'Print Screen' button as the default screenshot saver key is that the OS also uses it to create a bmp image capture of whatever is on the screen. By opening virtually any paint or graphics viewer you can then paste the bmp image and save it. Just a FYI to those who are really low on memory when playing RTW; 32bit color bmp files can get quite large depending on the resolution and image and using Print Screen can waste a certain amount of system memory. So you may want to remap the screenshot key to something else. If I'm wrong someone please correct me.
