EB February screenshot competition (submission thread)

[Megas Pyrrhos]

Nice one Barbarian.

On a side note, I've changed my entry and it's up above where I posted before. Decided I wanted a change from Epeirote society and headed east.

EDIT: Meant on the 1st page.

[Gebeleisis]

I give you: "Casual Evening Slaughter"

may i take that screenie and have a bit of fun with it :)?

[Sassem]

Btw, I can take screenshots from EB again, so it is ok.

Here is a hoplite, trying to hit elephant in the eye:

SUPERRRRRR

[Megas Pyrrhos]

What people do with my screenshots, I do not mind or care, unless they somehow end up in the same competition....in an oddly distorted sort of way. So, go right ahead, fine by me.

[Centurio Nixalsverdrus]

Barbarian,

that's incredible! Definitely one of the best screens I've ever seen. The composition of the picture is perfect, there's nothing distracting, no spear tip in a cloak, no one looking desinterested... Awesome.

[aftzengeier]

...no one looking desinterested...

...Except the Elephants... They just stand there and chill out. "Prrrfff, Prrrfff, the animation does not fit thus this crazy Hiplitai-guy can fuck off, he won't pierce my eye anyway. Prrrfff"
No offend, but this screen does not feel serious to me... I like Gebeleisis' one much better.




...Aftzengeier

[johnhughthom]

This must surely be the best selection ever, any other month Barbarian, afzengeier or konny's would win hands down. Can't quite decide which one I like best, I think Barbarian's just sneaks it.

I hope you don't feel offended because I already declared you winner but had to change my mind? Anyway, to me the elephant looks like he is staring at the tiny creature in front of him, quite annoyed.

[aftzengeier]

No ^^ not really I'm quite impressed by this month's submissions but I don't think the elephantoi-one is one of the best of this month...
When I've seen Konny's pic I fell off my chair

[Ayce]

Not really the best I could come up with, but I'll give it a shot:

Suprise!


You reeeaaallly wouldn't want to walk into an ambush like that (description says Komatai Thorakitai Stratiotai are designed for woods combat, so it's bye bye enemy )

edited, it kept resizing before

[NEver]

Hold tight ,Sacred Band!

Or

Clash of the republics

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Gebeleisis hasn't submitted one this round yet.

If Gebeleisis had submitted the one you meant, I think, you would like his. But instead I'm thinkin you meant you liked the one he quoted that I submitted... Just trying to make sure there wasn't going to be misunderstanding and an accidental submission.

EDIT: Fixed

[Gebeleisis]

may i ask how to get fullscreen screenies without using fraps?

[Ayce]

Print Scr, copy to Paint, crop what is necessary and save as png works for me.

[Megas Pyrrhos]

xfire works pretty good too, especially if the whole print screen button doesn't work out for ya.

[Hooahguy]

but prnt scrn doesnt work if you have anti-aliasing enabled.....

[Gaivs]

Its a shame, where people submit really nice screenshots, yet there is always one or two that EVERYone votes for, and it just makes all the other contestants feel crap for not getting any votes at all.

[Hooahguy]

ya..... im actually thinking of not entering anymore.... at least until i get my laptp and get amazing graphics!

[NeoSpartan]

Oh would you guys get a grip!

"I feel sad because most people voted for 3 other pics and only 4 people voted for mine"

Fellas!

Just post a darn pic u think is cool, and let everyone see it. That way people can see other units fighting and stuff... u know, like the elephant and hoplite.

and don't catch a feeling over it.

I can't believe u guys

[Megas Pyrrhos]

I agree with ya NeoSpartan, I still enter pics into the contest, knowing my chances of actually winning is slim to none. But I enter the pics because I think the ones I'm entering are either badass or just cool looking, and that's enough for me.

[Gaivs]

Well heres my entry, i like it. I think its perfect in terms of right amount of sky, right amount of horse, good angle. Probably my favourite pic ive taken.

The Flankers

[Copperknickers]

U guys all have banners in ur pics. I have taken mine out so, if you'll excuse me, i am going to go and work on my masterpiece. ;)

[Gebeleisis]

no i mean not that kind of screenies,i know how to take screenies but full screen ones so i dont have to crop

i mean how do i remove the battlebars minimaps and those from the battle?

hope you understand

[Megas Pyrrhos]

Why? press f5,6 and 7 and it will hide the different sections of the ui...full screen battles baby! can't beat them!

I believe that's what you're looking for.

[aftzengeier]

EDIT: Fixed

Oh
Sorry my mistake

[Gebeleisis]

I believe that's what you're looking for.

well i tryed them but it doesnt seem to work

[Copperknickers]

You cant just go to UI options and click minimal UI and hide them all? Or is that med 2. U should be able to do it from the menu anyway.

[Megas Pyrrhos]

You can do Minimal UI in RTW, but you have to go into preferences.txt and change it manually there...however, if one does that, then it makes it somewhat hard(or, with my experience, have to do more) to crop out things, in essence having to take out more than with the regular UI. For me at least, pressing those F keys did the trick in min. UI....no reason it shouldn't work...

I'm not completely sure what you're trying to say here. If you have the minimal UI you don't need to crop at all. The "F keys" you're referring to are F5, F6 and F7. Hit that and you only have the cursor left, and that's easily cropped out/hidden/edited out.

I'll submit a screen tomorrow too, I think. I have a few already, I just need to decide which one to choose first.
