Calarand Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) I bet most of us take screenshots of our characters during the conversation scenes, when the textures look good and nothing hurts the eyes. Let's show off! How to take screenshots and add them to your post? Read below. I guess we all noticed that the Print Screen button hardly ever works in-game, and it's even less reliable during the cinematics. There are various other ways to take screenshots, personally I use and can recommend a free program called FRAPS. You can download it here. It lets you specify the destination folder and the screenshot button. It is fairly lightweight and it shouldn't slow down your system. The only disadvantage is that the free version saves the screens in BMP format which makes them rather big files - so remember to clean your screenshots folder regularly. To add a screenie to your comment, you need to upload it to a free image hosting site first. There's plenty of them available. I use Imgur, as it's easy to navigate and doesn't force any unnecessary functions on you. You don't even need an account. Once you upload the image there, look for a link to it. Copy the URL, then go to your comment and click the tiny link button above the text editing window. Paste the URL there and... you're done! Notes: - if you move or remove the image you have linked, the URL to it will change and the pic will disappear from your post! - for non-cinematic screenshots, use Alt + z to hide your user interface Meet my pureblood Juggernaut, when he was still just a Sithling, around lvl 25: http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a397/Tasharene/fpi/25a5cb27.jpg Edited June 30, 2015 by Calarand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Explosive_Lasers Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 (edited) I wish I capped the picture of when my Hunter nerded it out with his blaster. "Oh yes, head on in, then." "You're lucky. Next time... *pulls out blaster, holding it slightly sloppily* BANG! *slightly nerdy face*" -1 Mako Edited February 4, 2012 by Explosive_Lasers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hreid Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 (edited) Vinzer, if you don't mind me asking - Where did you get that helmet? I have the same model but annoying gold plated details here and there. Also is it modifiable? http://hreidmar.se/tor/char/hreidman.jpg Edited February 4, 2012 by Hreid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BelialSempai Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 (edited) Whaaat, I love the outfit. What is it? Thanks <3 You know that armor all the Imperial military wears? Its the bottom, boots, and gloves from that, and then a Sith Warrior top I changed the mods out of. I use the slave dancer top too, buuut it tanked my armor so much that I have to wear that sith heavy armor top for battle and such.

Got this shot during the cut scenes of the inquisitor quest line's ending. Worked slightly on it with photoshop, i.e. changed the contrast somewhat, but nothing big.
