Screenshots

Is there a specific button for taking screenshots that will save them to a folder, or do you have to hit the Print Screen key, alt-tab, and ctrl-v into paint to save a screenshot? If the latter is the system, are there any alternatives?

Any help would be appreciated, wasn't sure if this should be posted somwhere else.

Re: Screenshots

Get Xfire and just press Scroll Lock + S if you wanna take a screenshot. As soon as you go to the desktop, you will get a window asking you which screenshots to save to the screenshot folder

XFire needs to be running in the background though.

Re: Screenshots

Yes, here is a way to take screenshots with BF2142. The 'Take Screenshot' key by default is 'Print Screen'. Just press Print Screen during gameplay. You might get a second or two of the game locking up. Then, exit BF2142, go to your My Documents folder and then Battlefield 2142 folder. Go into the folder called screenshots and you'll find your screen captures in both .jpg and .png formats.
