Quick screenshot question
If you have the options enable so you can see them, then you can take a screen shot and paste it right into MS Paint or other graphics program.
That's how I got this shot

Many thanks. That was exactly what I was looking for.

If you hit print screen, two things happen:
1) An image file is stored, sans name, UI, etc, in the screenshots file of City of in your hard drive.
2) The image is also saved to the clipboard, and this one is literally a copy of the screen, with names, UI, chatscreen, etc. present. To have any of this information visible in an image, go to an image program (such as MS Paint or another) immediately after hitting Print Screen (mainly becuase you will lose it if you make further screenshots). Then either use the paste command or hit Ctrl-V to take it from the clipboard to program. Save the file and you can go back to playing.
Hope that helps and makes sense.

Just checking. Thought an in-game graphics guru like you would have the answer.
Servo- Thanks. That business I know about, it was getting the name and title in the shot I needed to figure out.

If you type screenshotui 1, and THEN take a regular screenshot by hitting print screen button (or whatever key you have bound to screenshot), it will keep the UI elements in the saved file. screenshotui 0 will disable that.
The problem he was having was getting it in the UI in the first place, not taking a picture with the UI. To do that you go into the game options menu and select the option to display your own name/title (which is off by default).
Does anyone know if there is a command that will allow you to take a screen shot of your character so the character name, title, and badge title appear in the final .JPG? The /screenshotui 1 command doesnt and I cant find such a command in the guides section. Zloth? You out there?
Thanks in advance
