could anyone tell me how to take screenshots if I am playing this game on Steam? the Prnt Scrn button does not work, and theres no button that you can set in the controls panel.

Being a steam user myself, I think that you need to press F5 key to capture screenshots, and they save in the Steam folder.

Hello All,

While we are on the topic of Steam, do any of you know what it means when I get a message from Steam about some library or archive aspect or other not being completed or found when trying to play Red Orchestra?

Sorry about the vagueness of the error message, but I am writing this from memory and can't check the exact message right now.

Thanks for your help,

RB

Ill try F5, but the normal Print Screen button only takes a pic of my desktop background, not of IL2 1946 that I am running.

hmmm, none of those worked at all, does the fact that i am running Windows Vista 32bit service pack 2 count for anything??? I will have a look on the Steam Forums to see if they have anything on it. thx all

nope, I cant find a solution, it must be to do with Vista or somthing like that. hang on, ill try changing the theme back to old windows 95, it works in rendering Medieval 2 Total War movies ive found on vista, there may be the same display problem. hang on---
