2.11 How do I take screenshots?
In the UB levels ONLY of TR Gold: Press the forward-slash key, '/',
and the game will start dumping screenshots (in .pcx format) into
your TR directory. Press the slash key again to stop it. The limit
is 1000 according to some of our newsgroup research-scientist types;
it does not keep accumulating pictures indefinitely, but writes over
the oldest as it goes.
In TR2: The 's' key takes one screenshot at a time, saved to your
TR2 directory in .pcx (or .tga if in 16.7 million colour mode)
format also.
In TR3/TRLR/TRC: The " (or ') key takes the screenshots in .tga
format only. For European layout keyboards it's the @ key I
believe.
I've been informed that you can't take screenshots with the original
release of TR1. Your best option, if you must have a record of Lara
in action, is to use a specialised 3rd party screenshot grabbing
program. You'll find a list of some useful screen grabbers in the
Utilities section of the Appendix below.
A few people also seem to be having trouble viewing the Targa (.tga)
files -- it's just another picture file format and all the better
shareware graphics programs should be able to view these files
(Paint Shop Pro and IrFanView come highly recommended).
