need help with screen shots

[FalnRedemption]

I just recived my beta in the mail and the first thing i did when i started the game was take screen shots. I used the PrtScn botton to do it. I looked in the directory and couldnt find a thing.

I'm not wanting to show my pics online because i know that i would get in trouble for doing that but i just wanted to see my pics thats all. I was wondering if i could get help in finding them, and if i can thanks

Well, I have some slight bad news, unelss they have changed it in the BETA. As far as the Japanese client software is concerned, you cannot use Print Screen by itself to screen capture as the screen capture functionality does not work on the PC version. PrntScreen functions as this:

It copies all the screen data (image) and puts it on the clipboard(RAM), which is a temporary piece of memory used for copy and paste functions. So each time you push PrntScrn, you are placing a capture of the screen into memory but it is not saving anywhere. If you say, pressed PrntScrn and then pressed Cntrl+V for paste in Microsoft Paint, then the computer would paste that screen shot into Paint, and then you can save it thought Paint. PrntScrn wont save the image for you.

Personally I use HyperSnap and it's well worth the money they are asking for it especially when they come out with updates.
