how do you get a screen shot?

Post by Beldar »

I'm trying to get started in World at War and posted in that forum with a problem. The reply was to post a picture but I don't know how to get a screen capture. Can anyone tell me please? Thank you.

Find the place in the game where you want to take a screenshot. Hit the PrintScreen key on your keyboard, then exit the game.

Once on the Windows desktop, open MS Paint (it's included in Windows), and hit CTRL+V. This will insert the screenshot from the game into MS Paint for you to save as a picture (make sure you use the jpg or gif format).
