The first time I tried taking a screenshot in EECH it caused the game to crash. EECH didn't have a screenshot directory, and for some reason couldn't create the folder itself, when I hit the "Print Screen" key. So I exited out of the game and created it myself under "C:\GOG Games\Comanche vs Hokum\common\SCRNSHOT".
The next time I tried taking a screenshot there was a slight pause when I hit the key, and this time it didn't crash the program. So I though great, it took the screenshot okay, and I ended up taking five more of them while flying a free-flight mission. After that I then exited out of the game and proceeded to check out the screenshots I took. But was a bit confused as my screenshots were .TXT files, named IMAGE000.TXT through IMAGE006.TXT. Containing map cordinances at the time the key was pressed. Is this normal? I know I can use use "IrfanView" or the "Ultima Online Screenshot Utility" to take screen captures instead, I'm just wondering if I'm the only one this is happening to.
