Screenshots how-to?

Post by jjdenver »

Hey can someone fill me in on the basics of screenshots? Whenever I take a shot I seem to get a JPEG of the entire map. I can't seem to get one of production summary screen for example. I also can't get a zoomed in pic of only part of the map.

A separate question is - what program (free) would be good to edit screenshots with and also to make arrows/lines on them?

Thanks!

I just use "Print Screen" button and paste into MS Paint. You can resize, crop, markup etc. there.

The screenshot button in the game is only for overall situation picture of the current game turn.

but rather to skid in broadside, totally worn out & proclaiming "WOW, what a ride!"
