    If I remember right...

    f12 and/or PrntScrn will take a hi-res SS which removes all UI/HUD screens

    typing /scrrenshot_ui_jpg in the chat bar (and using the auto-fill) will take a SS showing the UI/HUD....basically what you see when you play the game.

    Hope this helps

    do you have to do something to your game settings in order for this feature to work?

    Your game folder. Look for a screenshots directory. That's also where outfits are saved (as headshots of your characters actually).

    Wherever you installed the game. So if it's on C: drive under Program Files it would be...

    C:\Program Files\Cryptic Studios\Star Trek Online\Live\Screenshots

    ... you can always find it via the search bar.
