wow great model Drunken Penguin it looks like alot of work went into it good job will welp, Vanguard, Cboidy be showing us theres to that would be cool i got a ? but i dont know where to post it but where do u find where the screen shots i looked in the zh folders for like 7mins but i thought it would be easyer to ask one of u cause ive never realy needed a screen shoot before but i gota show one of my friends something any know where?

[Bob]

Are you asking how you can make a screen shot?

If so, the button to use is the F12 key.

It will make a 1.4 MB screen shot file named sshot001.bmp (for example) in the following location.

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour Data

After it has been created you could e-mail the screenshots to your friend, as is, if you really wanted to piss'em off. Why? Because they are so huge. The game creates a 1.4 megabyte .bmp file everytime you press the F12 key. That can really add up. So, I recommend opening them up in Microsoft Paint first and reducing them by changing the file format

Here's how:

1. Click on File then 'Save As'.

2. Give the file a new name that is understandable. (Optional)

3. Click on the down arrow next to the box that says 'Save as type' and choose JPG.

4. Click on Save.

Now, if you go back and look for the newly saved file you'll see that the size of the picture that you want to send out has been greatly reduced from 1.4MB in the original, to about 80KB, or so, in the new .jpg file version.

As you can see thats a huge difference and your friends will appreciate it, by not clogging up their e-mail box.

Hope this helps.

Is that what you were inquiring about? If not, please restate you question.

Angel of Death:

I guess we don't need any professional game development teams, unless you plan on joining one. That should be in an Xbox 360 game or something, definetly wouldn't look out of place (although it may be too good...)

Anyway about the screenshots, I think PNG is the smallest format you can get without lowering color quality. I know it's lots smaller than bmp.

[DrunkenPenguin]

you know whats funny, is after u guys have seen my work (this tank and anything i've skinned for vanguard)
none of you would probably guess what field of work i am going to go in...

[Jsmooth13]

Accounting??? That's like the opposite lol!

[crave22]

Medicine? Law? Engineering? Meat packing? (I know... that last one came out of nowhere. But I'm lovable cuz I'm random like that. )

I probably never would be able to guess.
