How in the world do you take a screenshot in GPL? I've made a new paint scheme, but I can't figure out how to take a picture of it... lol
Hit PrtScrn for as many screenshots as you wish. When complete you will see a load of *.pbf files Use pbf2tga.exe in the gpl folder to create tga files you can edit in most graphics editors. syntax: pbf2tga filename Seems a bit laborious but it is great that you can create multiple screenshots in one replay session and then do something with them later.

two quick points..your method only works if he has a 3dfx video card. 2nd, there is a utility at theuspits.com that will convert a whole slew of thos pbf files to tga in one motion. To get non-3dfx screen shots...I believe you have to have a screen grabber like hypersnapdx running and use it. dave henrie "Tony Rickard" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:afKz6.4741$[email hidden]...
