Screenshots

Whilst I like taking a screenshot of scenes which gets rid of the menus, I wanted to take a screenshot with the final scores of a Fleet Action. However, only the background and characters appear.

Is there a way to take a screenshot exactly as the screen appears, text and all?
Thanks

    Pretty sure that /screenshot_ui toggles whether the UI gets picked up by the screenshots you take.

    Just type that and hit enter. Then all your screenshots will have the UI in them. Repeat to ditch the UI again.

    Actually, no. That does not create a toggle. You would have to type that each time to take screen shots with UI.

    I believe the toggle would be /screenshot_UI_on but I cannot confirm that at the moment.
    You can also create a bind for this using this format /bind <key> "toggle screenshot_UI_on"


    :cool:

    Yep, you're right. My bad. /screenshot_ui and /screenshot_ui_jpg seem to do the same thing. Neither one toggles, and /screenshot_ui already makes a .jpg. I've never messed with these before, so my experience is limited to, well, this. :)

    They go to Program Files/Cryptic Studios/Star Trek Online/Live/Screenshots, and they are saved as .jpg files. That path is assuming you used the default install path for ST:O.

    In Screenshot Folder do the following:

    "Ctrl+A" (if you want all) or "Ctrl+Single CLick" the files that you want (If you only want specifics) and "Ctrl+X" (If you want to move them), or "Ctrl+C" (f you want to copy them).

    Go to Desktop Folder and:

    "Ctrl+V" for Paste.
