Why can I not take a screenshot.I hit the print button and nothing.I hit the "P" key as someone else suggested and still nothing.I tried Fraps and got the screenshots,but the damn UI is in the way.I am on a Laptop and my print button also says "INS" on it above where it says print.What the heck am i doing wrong.Is there a way to remap screenshots to a different key?I saw nothing in the game options.I really need help here please.I need pics so I can send them to my brother so he might buy the game.;)

    You can remove the UI alt + f12.
    Print screen should work for capturing.
    Mine does on PC.

    theres also an ingame / command for screenshots, and then it puts the SS into a folder, but I forget what it is.

    try typing in /screenshot. If it is wrong, I believe if you are close it will correct you

    Printscreen works for me, the files are located for me under my user folder /Cryptic Studios/Star Trek Online/live/screenshots

    Just need to find where the game is installed and the above should take you to where you need to go.

    As for rebinding the key, don't know to be honest.

    /screenshot_ui_jpg makes a screenshot with the UI in JPG format.
    /screenshot_jpg makes a screenshot without the UI in JPG format.

    ALt -F12 is soooo choice, it raises the frame rate in the game when the UI is off, movies record smoother and I find myself playing without the UI during battle, course you have to know every button setting to go forward, just to pick up items and stuff you gotta put it on again for a sec though.
