Press F2 in game, under Misc... check the screenshot key

[Cobra]

The screenshot key is Print Screen. Nice help there, jr2.

[jr2]

?  Okay, whatever.  *shrugs*  It's Print Screen, unless you have it configured otherwise.  Which you would find if you looked at your key bindings. 

[Vasudan Admiral]

I don't know how to screen shot it.I got it from the 3.6.9 i think.

The 3.6.9 VPs don't and won't exist - we'll be switching straight to the 3.6.10 ones when that build comes out.

Without a screenie though I can only guess what's happening, and my only guess is that you have the old model or something in one of your mods and it's overriding the HTL one. But what you describe sounds more like a graphics glitch, so I really need a screenshot showing the problem to be sure.

Press "Print Screen" key while playing and then look in freespace2\screenshots folder. 

(You'll get screenshots in tga uncompressed format. Please convert them to compressed jpg before posting).

Damn Laptop.....It has the button, but it doesn't work it has the Fn thing on it.

[Cobra]

Then remap it!

What do you mean?  Fn works just like Alt or Ctrl... press & hold Fn, then the button you are trying to use the Fn function of.  Can you take a pic of your laptop keyboard & attach it here?  (Save as a 1024x768 or so .jpg, then hit Preview > Additional Options > Attach.)

I made the shots but how do i save to jpg?

[jr2]

Use IrfanView, File > Save As... ; to change resolution, use Image > Resize.

M$ Pbrush also works, but IrfanView is FTW.

[Hades]

Here they are.

[Vasudan Admiral]

That looks *almost* right except for two things:
1) The texture is being displayed at a very low res. There is a known problem there (see below) but that looks much worse than usual. What's your graphics card?
2) In the second pic on the second shell there appears to be some sort of problem. Because the shells are quite thin, I suspect it's something to do with your graphics card muddling the layers up (Z buffer issues or something). Do those black areas shift around and/or dissappear a lot?

Also, the Lucifer does have a bit of a problem with anisotropic filtering making the textures look quite blurry from a distance. I'm not quite sure how I'll improve on that, if indeed I can, but I'll try eventually. I need to fix some of the smoothing as well.

Yes The Black Ares Shift Around And/Or Dissaper like that. Of The Other Ships Do That Too.I looked at the computer manual and it didn't say anything about the card.It's a Compaq Presario, A HP Brand.I'l Look At The Computer Web Site.

EDIT:I think this is the video card.        Shared Video RAM (Max):          64 MB

[Vasudan Admiral]

Well I expect that's it then - your card is just not really powerful enough to display some or all of these HTL ships correctly sorry. The black areas especially imply it's struggling to keep up, and as such there's no way your texture settings can be turned up to cancel out the blurriness.

In fact, I'd say you probably shouldn't be using anything but mv_core from the media VPs - is the game playable in it's current state, or does it chug?

[Hades]

Its Playable, But it does lag when a mission starts.

If you can, get a new GFX card.  Get an AGP or PCI-E card if your compy has one of these expansion slots, or get a plain PCI if it doesn't.  Halfway decent cards with 256 MB of memory onboard aren't too expensive, and 128 MB cards are kinda cheap, depending on what you get.

Hades has a notebook. I doubt you can get something like that for that.

I have a keyboard like that. It is a Logitech. If you have one similar there might be a button that says "F Mode" or something like that. I figured it out because everytime i pressed F4 in FreeSpace it opened a PowerPoint. This should switch the keyboard to standard "F" mode.

Doubtful, true... what model notebook is it?  Sometimes you can increase the memory that the GFX card gets in the BIOS (AGP aperture size or similar.. look for a setting that has the same memory displayed as your GFX vid memory, and change it to max.)
