Hi,
I can't make a screenshot from my game. Can anyone help me? Maybe some code?

Thanks for all help.

P.S: Please excuse my english.

Print Screen button (PrtSc) in upper right corner of your keyboard ...then open something like Phothoshop or MS Paint and paste. I think that you can paste directly to your desktop as well.

It works, I made screenshots in the same way.

But, does anyone have any hints as to how to take a screen shot and save it as a file, while still within the game?? Like for some savegames have screenshots to associated with them so you can see exactly at which point you are.

Get the rgb of each pixel on the screen and write it to a bmp or something. Thats basically how you do it, its just the code that you need to figure out
