Voyager Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Where are screenshots captured at? I've been trying to capture a couple of images, but I can't seem to get the screenshots to capture. Any suggestions on how to do this? Thank you Harry Voyager
Eaglewings Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Look in your save game holder for dcs and find folder dedicated for your screenshots. I use the print/screen/sysRq key on my keyboard to capture screenshots.

Voyager Posted June 10, 2020 Author Posted June 10, 2020 Hmmm... So C:\Users\Voyager\Documents\SavedGames just has folders for Bleed and Flotilla When I did try to map the control is was greyed out, but it did list "Sys Rq" (Print Screen) as the button for it. Could it be locked out somehow?
TuffAsAir Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 It should be the same keys as if you were to take a screenshot in Windows, and there is no visual cue, in-game, that shows that a screenshot has been taken. Screenshots should be found in your Saved Games folder: (e.g.) C:\[user]\Saved Games\DCS[.openbeta]\Screenshots Hope this helps.
Rudel_chw Posted June 11, 2020 Posted June 11, 2020 Also, the default screenshot format is PNG; you can change it to JPG by adding this line: options.graphics.ScreenshotExt = "jpg" on the file: /saved Games/dcs/config/autoexec.cfg For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB

It was in the saved games directory directly under {user} rather than the one in documents. Unfortunately, carrying many years of documents and saved games does lead to a rather complex network of saved files..
