I just found out I can take screenshots with the "screenshot" console
command (in hexen2 that is) which saves it as a .tga file but it has the
console taking up half the screen.  :(




: Hi, I recently installed the latest versions of Descent 1 (with newly
: released 3Dfx patch) and GLHexen II and I was wondering if I can take
: screenshots of these to show to my friend.  :)  

: In the Hexen II manual it says that it's F12, and in the Descent 1 help
: file it says it's Print Screen.  Neither of these work me as I cannot find
: the .bmp or .pcx file or whatever the format is in these games'
: directories.  Is it possible to take screenshots of these?



: (sorry for the crosspost, my news server doesn't have the other 2
: newsgroups  :)
