[invalid] screenshots - not bug, user error.
« on: 18 April 2011, 20:40:24 »
hi,

I'm trying to take screen shots but not working. Pressing 'E' does nothing, and using the Print Screen key doesn't have the right window in focus. I'm using Windows 7.

Any suggestions?

You have to be making sure that you're using 3.5.0 beta2. 3.4.0 had some issues before and it didn't show the path too. 3.5.0b2 shows the path, and the release will make it optionable to show the path. Good Luck.
Your screens should be located here:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\megaglest\screens

I'm not going to delete this. We don't delete topics just because it was user error. It will stay in case someone else has the same question.

Worth noting that this bug does not appear if you turn off the UAC, something I strongly recommend as the UAC is a worthless, paranoid piece of windows garbage which just fuels the windows-haters. Locked instead.
