[Mw] Screenshot help

[Danath_in]

Before today I never thought about taking screen shots of morrowind.
Which brings me to this rather embaressing question " How in the bloody heck do ya take one and where can ya find it afterward" LOL

[Quentin Fortune]

Nothing easier than that.

Make a backup of your Morrowind.ini file.
Open it. (The file is in the folder Morrowind)
Search for the following two lines

Screen Shot Enable=0
Screen Shot Base Name=ScreenShot

and set the value to 1.

If you don't want the pictures you shoot to be named Screenshot001, Screenshot002 etc. you can change the base name as well.

Now save the file, start Morrowind and take pictures by pressing the <Print> key. All files will be stored in the Morrowind folder.

Hope that helped. =)

Greetings

Quentin

Quentin has given a solution for taking screenshots in game, but if you want to take screenshots of work you are doing in the CS then a separate screen capture utility will be required. I would recommend having a look at Gadwin Printscreen which works well and is free.

Another alternative would be pressing the "Print Screen" button on the keyboard, then open any graphics program and press CTRL+V =)
