Closed - Screen shots won't work

Type of issue: (Not Sure)

Brief Description of Issue:

Was able to get about 3 screen shots while in game yesterday. Now they are only working if I have DoD menu up in the background of the game. In console it is saying I have been taking screen shots, but they aren't showing up. I've tried changing the key to F11, but when it's changed it still uses F12.

This should solve your issue.

[Cutts]

For the F12/F11 key thing, try editing your autoexec.cfg (alongside your games config.cfg, just create a new text file and rename if you need to (I'm fairly certain you know that anyway)) and add the bind

bind "F11" "jpeg"

bind "F12" ""

(or whatever you want F12 to be)

config.cfg has an tendency to revert to what you didn't want it to be. It's really annoying. autoexec.cfg remains under your control though - valve don't fuck with it, so it should always override config.cfg, and it shouldn't get changed without you changing it.

If this can add to anything, I can take screen shots in a regular game. 1st MRB pub, but not if I create a game (Logistics work). I'll try what you put down cutts and see if it works.

That's odd.... do you have a server.cfg file in your config folder that could be doing something strange? Also, check all the folders in custom (/dod/custom/<somefolder>/cfg)

Is there any news about this ticket? Is it still an issue?

Keep in mind, there are two different keys for taking screenshots. One is set via Steam options, and the other is in-game. The default for a screenshot via Steam is F12.
