Does anyone know how to take screenshots in Venetica? Supposedly is is the F8 key. each time I presss this noting seems to happen. Anyone knows anything more about this, please ell me. Al help is appreciated.

Screenshots aren't stored in the game-directory but in C:\Users\<Username>\Documents\Venetica\Screenshots.
Have you looked there?

HTH

Looked there, can't find anything.

Which key do you use to take screnshots, please Dedee?

I came looking for this too, and having the same issue just spent a bit trying to figure why it seemed pressing the F8 caused a momentary stutter as if it took the screenshot, but nowhere to be found.
(Also F12 can disable the HUD for nicer screenshots)

Had no luck until I just made a new folder called 'Screenshots' in that directory, next time I hit F8 it showed up in there no problem. Hope that works for you too.

GOG Galaxy will take screenshots for you.

Also both nVidia and AMD have their own overlays that have screenshot functionality. Why the need to use the in-game screenshot system?

Cause not everyone likes to use GOG Galaxy or GeForce Experience or whatever cause of privacy reasons. Yop, worked for me too. Thanks.

- Create the folder 'Screenshots' by yourself here: C:\Users\<Username>\Documents\Venetica\
- Hud on/off: Default key is F12, screenshot default key is F8
- You can change the keys if you want: <Gamefolder>\keybinds.ini
- If your game is crashing sometimes, especially when you use the texture mod, use the 4GB patch:

I highly recommend the FOSS program ShareX for all your screenshot needs, OBS for screen capturing in case you were wondering about that too.

I have always just used the PrtSc (Print Screen) button on my keyboard, then just pasted to paint and save as png, works on every software you can minimize, and on every windows OS*. My Venetica install doesn't always like to be minimized though, so I'd recommend saving before minimizing, however Venetica has a few incompatibilities with my system it seems, and I have rarely had such problems with other softwares. This takes a moment, but I always know it worked, and where the file is. I do this with Win98SE, and with Win10. I often do this when I need to piece together multiple parts of a page, or pages, such as the product descriptions and images from one page and the price readout from another. It also means I don't have to worry about a window within a window, or other oddities.

Alternatively, drop box used to be able to be setup to automatically download any screen cap you make with PrtSc, and I don't see why they'd discontinue that feature.
