biny Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 I have some screenshots in my 'screenshots' folder in the SWBF 2 folder, but I don't know what button to press to take them and when I click on them to open them it doesn't work, gives me an error message (I had the same problem in the original game). Could someone please help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthVandar205 Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 press the P button, thats the default key for SWBF and SWBF2. You usually cant assign it, although in SWBF2 you can. Or just download FRAPS online and use F12 to take screenshots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSR Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 or the "print scrn" and put it in paint shop pro, similar to whatg3 said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conmanguyler Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 or if u have xfire you can use ScrLk + s, then you can get as many screenshots as you like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biny Posted March 30, 2006 Author Share Posted March 30, 2006 Ok, so "p" is the button. How come I can't open them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthVandar205 Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Maybe whatever photo editor youre using doesnt use that format? try downloading Irfanview online and you can change your screenshots to whatever format your photo editor will support.

biny Posted April 3, 2006 Author Share Posted April 3, 2006 Yeah I do too, thats why I change some of the screenshot's formats with Irfanview so I can display them there. What's Irfanview, how do I get it and how do I change them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthVandar205 Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 What's Irfanview, how do I get it and how do I change them? Its a program to view and convert images, you can get it online, just search for it using Google, its free. If you wanna convert the images from one type to another just go to the batch conversion thing in the file menu and there should be a folder thing on the right you can search through for your screenshots and on the left you can select which ones you wanna add to the list to convert and then you just tell it to start converting the images and you get this box showing everything thats being converted and it will let you know when its done, it usually goes fairly fast, but if you have alot of images or they are a big file types then it can take longer. Just try it out its pretty straight forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
