Thanks Admiral! I was trying to figure out how to take my own screenshot, but I couldn't get it so I gave up and used a pre-loaded one.

Any screenshots you take are saved in the game files - which you'll have to find the directory in your computer where everything is depending on how you installed the game to see what you've taken.
If you type /screenshot_jpg into chat and hit enter it will screenshot whatever you're doing without the UI (if I am wrong someone please feel free to correct me) - find that image and upload it being mindful of the pixel restrictions. If not I am sure we can get it edited to conform for you

So use /screenshot_jpg filename.jpg instead. If you want to make a screenshot with the UI, you can use /screenshot_ui_jpg filename.jpg. If the file name is more than one word, then put in quotes (f.e. "file name.jpg").

I do something a bit more complex... I use the following code to automatically render full sized pictures: /bind <YOUR KEY HERE> "renderScale 1.5 $$ delayedCmd 1.0 screenshot $$ delayedCmd 2.0 renderScale 1" that way it will scale up, take the pic in better quality, and scale back to normal all in one key. just replace the <your key here> part with whatever key or key+key combo you want to use (i.e. Shift+F12). you can also change the renderScale 1.5 number to anything else, but its advisable to NOT go any higher than a value of 3 because the sudden lag will crash the game matrix.

I actually came across the coding for it through the default option in the keybinds menu to "take upscaled screenshot" and just changed it from its default tga to jpg.... Who TF even uses tga format nowadays anyways lol hmm i wonder if it and the :hold: commands could be used to fully automate spamming keybinds in battle for truly one-touch max dps fighting???
