  1. @gameragodzilla Nah its old enough its from a time you can just hit print screen and it dumps a screencap in a screenshots folder, from before everything screenshots had to go through the developer DRM system d'jour.

    1. @maiyannah I miss that. Wasting memory on fraps is stupid when the game could easily save screeshots itself.

      1. @nerthos Its probably one of the easiest things ever to implement, but we've addressed the growing deskilling in the industry in previous discussion.

        Dump the current screen buffer to a file, reformat the file to JPEG, GIF, PNG, or whatever, done.  DirectX has had inherent tools to do that since DirectX 6.  OpenGL had it longer and was why DX implemented those file conversions.
