screenshots

This may be a silly question but could anyone tell me how to take a screenshot in FS2002?!! Thanks

No such thing as a silly question - it's all a matter of perspective!

Three steps, really:
- download a program that will save jpgs of your screen display by pressing the 'print screen' button on your keyboard (I use GrabClipSave, available in the downloads section - or google for it)

- re-size the pics in your favourite picture editor to a max of 800x600 pixels

- visit the 'freeware screenshots' forum, read the 'sticky' which is the first item, follow the instructions ...

... and you're away!

Happy shooting.

Hi,

Well well... you take a screenshot in FS2002 by pressing the "Print Screen" button. Then go to your program "Paint" (you already have onboard). There you import the screenie and can you save it as a .bmp or even better as a .jpg. (Sorry I only know the Dutch names of the buttons... so I cannot explain it all).

Of cource there are freeware programs who give you the opportunity to take more than one screenie at the time. I thought it was JASC.

I think the best is Multigrab by Martin Wright.

Scroll down and you'll see it in a small box.

I have a nice little program called Howie's Quick Screen Capture. It's made by Howie's Funware. www.howiesfunware.com
It saves multiple screenshots to your C: drive as bmp's or .jpg's.

However, if you want the best quality of screenshots, you have to press the print screen key and paste (one screenshot at a time) into MS paint (ctrl+v).
