How do I take screenshots?

[guitarxe 6]

I press prntscrn, go to mspaint, paste, and all there is is just black. Like the whole image size is filled with black, there's nothing there.

And I can't find any folder where the game puts screenshots either.

Help please?

If you're playing the steamversion, steam offers you to define what key you'd like to take screenshots with: select steam on the top left of your steam window, then "settings", select the "in-game" tab and define the key you'd like to use.

If you're playing any other version some proprietary software like the demo version of fraps might help you.

I hope this helps.

I am also having this Issue.

The Standard steam hot key is used in the command system of ArmA and print screen paste is only takeing a shot of my desktop rather then the game.

If anyone can shed some light on this i would greatly appreciate it.

Steam has a screenshot function (default key: F12).

Otherwise you can use Beepa Fraps.

@Sherlock: karma whore ;P
