Taking screenshots in Mount and Blade
« on: May 09, 2009, 05:14:55 AM »
There are many reasons to take screenshots in M&B, for mod development, personal amusement..etc. This Tutorial will explain how to take screenshots in mount&blade.

First, you may take screenshots in-game using the Ctrl + Insert key. After the screenshot is taken it can be found in the directory:

C:/Users/Yourname/Documents/Mount&bladescreenshots/

However I prefer using FRAPS. Fraps is a application that allows the user to take screenshots and small videos (if you are using the trial version). The full version allows more advanced settings for the video and screenshot capture.

you can also take ss if you have x-fire. But xf makes HQ ss which is very big (around 4-5 MB).
It can also film videos, but 1 minute has like 60MB because it doesn't use codecs.
shortcuts for: ss- scroll lock + x
                   video(start)- scroll lock + v, same is for ending it
It's better to live within your dreams then to live without them.
