After trying to get one, which came out all black, I was told that was a bug in Defiance. However, I'm seeing screenshots here and there in posts. So how do we take them?

I would think running the game in "windowed (full screen)" using print screen then pasting into paint or some other graphic program would work or you can try a program like FRAPS to take screenshots, here is a long thread from awhile back that should give you some other options
Okay thanks, but dumb question. How do I run in windowed mode? I don't see anything, even in settings that will allow that.

Do you play trough Steam or standalone?
Steam has a built in image capture that you can use, if you play via steam. If you don't play via steam, but have steam installed, you could actually add the game to steam and again use it to capture images.
Yes what Warduke said, Steam is actually pretty good for it, also I run 2 monitors and when I print screen I have also the other monitor on it, Steam will only capture the game itself.
IMO, it's a screen resolution issue. Were you trying to view the saved screen shots with MS Paint? Set your game resolution lower to say 1024 x 768 and paint can handle it.Quote:

Alt-Prt Sc might work. It only takes a capture of the current window.
During the login process I have a title bar up top. I double click that while the Trion flashies are playing and it not only cuts that crap short but puts me into windowed mode (which gives me the task bar at the bottom).Quote:

I keep KTAM player open in the browser so I can listen to the shows/music, ( Go Savant!) and I keep paint open to save the standings screens from sieges and arkfalls when I want to take time to check them out and compare info about whether a change tended to put me higher or lower on average over a period of time.

Okay that worked. Thanks to all. Now I have a picture of my Avatar. However, even as small as I've made her, the upload keeps failing. It gives me no information. The pic is smaller then .5KB though I don't know how to tell how many pixels with paint. Whats the most likely cause?Quote:
