Does anyone know if there is ingame capability to take screen shots in this game or will I have to turn to third-party apps such as Fraps and such.

imkeller · 11th Aug 2006, 12:35

Try the Print Screen button

nicotine · 11th Aug 2006, 15:20

Yeah I did, if they are saving screens I don't know where they're saving them at.

fev · 11th Aug 2006, 19:12

to your clipboard....

Glider · 11th Aug 2006, 19:15

Press print screen, open paint/photochop and paste... You'll see that the image is there...

nicotine · 11th Aug 2006, 20:36

Yeah I know that, but I'm looking for a game supported screenshot generation feature.

<--extremely lazy.

You are seriously too lazy to press print screen, open paint, paste the screen from the clipboard and save the file?

WOW

Spacecowboy92 · 17th Aug 2006, 19:03

Well you would have to close the game every time you want to save or view what you've got.

fev · 17th Aug 2006, 19:15

close?
you mean alt-tab surely?

woof82 · 17th Aug 2006, 19:36

Alt - tab with a program as clunky as NFSU2 would take ages. Unless you happen to have 4gigs of ram.

fev · 17th Aug 2006, 19:49

512mb of RAM, works fine... this is getting silly

WOW

For just capturing a few screenshots it'd be ok, but if he/she's wanting to capture a large amount, then the 'alt-tab paste' idea would be too time consuming. It'd be like giving a photographer multiple rolls of film, with x1 exposure on each.

Like others have suggested, try FRAPS - I've only ever used it for capturing video, but it does a damn fine job.

eek · 18th Aug 2006, 01:22

Not needed this for a while so not sure how things have move on, but I always used to use Hypersnap. I always found it really good and easy to use

Pookeyhead · 19th Aug 2006, 07:06

Pointless thread... you've got your reply. Use FRAPS... it's generally acknowledged amongst the gaming community to be the defacto app for screengrabs, game vid creation, and FPS benchmarking. It automatically applies hot keys for each function, and runs leanly with little system overhead.

.... or you could press Prt Scr and paste it into PS.

Google Hypercam 2 as well... that will basically make a vid of whatever is on your desktop.. useful for making training vids within windows.

If non of those three methods satisfy your needs, then your needs are excessive, or your far too lazy

crusader_DX · 7th Nov 2006, 15:39

you should try ACA capture PRo,,,, with it you can capture anything, both images and videos, shown in your screen....of cause,,, including the images when you play need for speed......

Samurai75007 · 22nd Nov 2006, 07:26

Xfire also offers an in game screen capture.
