Screen Shot

Postby Flyboy050803 » Thu Jun 09, 2005 9:19 am

This is a really silly question but can someone tell me how to do a screen shot on 2004.  It would be greatly appreciated.

Easy way:  Press print screen.  Then go out of the sim and into an image editor (MS Paint, Paintshop Pro, etc...).  Press CTRL+V.


Easier way:  Download GrabClipSave.  Press print screen.  Done.

Get that.

Really good program. A snap to use and one can take up to 999 shots consecutive by just pressing the Print/Screen button while still running the sim.

There are literally hundreds of screen shot utilities. Many are freeware some you have to pay for. Personally I wouldn't pay for any since the freeware ones give just as good results and have plenty of options.

FSScreen is a simple easy to use program but it doesn't have many options. YAFSScreen (Yet Another FSScreen) has a lot more options and allows you to use more than a single folder. I use it for several games and have a folder for each one. Just TAFSScreen to use the folder you want. You can even specify the output format.

Another good utility is Irfanview. It's free and will open and convert a huge number of graphic formats. It also has a screen shot setting so you are getting two utilities in one.

There's a bunch of others I don't remember off hand. Just run a search on Google and you'll turn up a lot.
