Title: screencap contest of the month, theme: 2012! (warning, may contain spoilers)
Post by: Rodo on January 01, 2013, 01:58:10 pm
So there was no thread for this and placing everything on the Celebration of Freespace one seemed like a bad idea. Difficult to follow and administrate so... a new thread!

Here's my contribution, some glorious ASW2 shots, right out of the oven:

Oh nous! it's the Lucifer chewing up some random destroyer :C

Never fear brothers, the Akrotiri is here to kick some Shivan ass!

Wait, what's that coming through the node, oh nous the Lucy.. RUN!

Wat? that's not the Lucy... oh I see, now we're ****ed.

Shivans, they are so sure about winning they even show us their ass (and DAT ASS I must say).

Finally, someone arriving that's not red-themed!

OMG! RUN RUN RUN!

(http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/7569/screen0016.jpg)

Come on, COME ON!

YES! suck that *****! HAHA...oh wait, I need to get out of here too!

I think that between exam period and Tenebra release, you just pick the worst time to start this...

how the hell do you take a screen shot? do you need a special folder?

Simplest way is to press "PrintScreen".  That saves a .tga into ... well.. ~/.fs2_open/screenshots on Linux, probably goes in freespace2/screenshots on Windows.  There is also a script which can slow down time and move your point of view freely, allowing you to take more impressive shots.  I haven't used this though.

Generally speaking, upload the screenshot to a hosting service like imageshack.  Then insert the URL of the screenshot inside "\[lvlshot\]" tags.  You can press the "quote" button on one of the other posts to see how they did it.

I mentioned this story on IRC, but I'll post it here since I tried to do this:

When playing SHUMPSpace and taking some photos, my Thinkpad W510 fan died, so now I can no longer play FreeSpace nor upload the photos online.

I apologize for failing you all.

Unfortunately I'm going to break the mold here :nervous:, but I have a few I've taken that I'll show off here.

Ancient-Shivan War (I actually took these late last year; if that makes them ineligible then oh well :p):
