Has anyone else had a problem with the screenshots not showing up after the patch? I shot a chopper pilot out of the mec "pig" chopper as he was hovering over the flag trying to cap the flag at the hotel on gulf of oman.

I'm f/ing pissed.

Huh.. negative.. I earned Basic Engineer and Vet Sniper today after installing the patch, and took screen shots of both.. or so I thought.. But, they aren't there.. So, no, screen shots don't seem to be working...

You're missing the point here. That paste deal is with windows only. I dont care about that.

There is still a problem here, I am talking about battlefields in game screenshot function being f/ed up.

This thread is not about fraps, nor paint........

You misenturpreted my post i guess, guy. I meant that the print screen and paste in ms paint function is windows side of things. I was talking about battlefield 2's ability to make screenshots and put them in a folder.

I run windows. I have ran suse 9 in the past though, it dont support alot of games so i dont screw with it much. it was just a neat 6months worth of educational experience.

I have the same problem, looks like you gotta go back to the 'ye olde way'.

1) Press the print screen key
2) open MS Paint
3) Ctrl+V, save as screen XXX in bf2 screenshots folder

this is such a pain in the ass

I do realize that this has been noted above, but I'm tired and hungover, and I have 25 mins to get into work

Anyone have any Ideas of how one can make them self sick for a couple of days???

I cant take screenies either after the patch.

I got fraps and just use that now. But the point is what happened and why cant we take pictures

DICE/EA im looking in your direction.

well there's advantages and disadvantages. 1.2 print the screen but put it in the clipboard. Troublesome cuz you have to paste the pic on some graphic program. And if you print screen lotsa times, only the last one got saved in the clipboard. However it also has advantages, the game no longer pause for the pic to be converted to .jpg/.png.

I use xfire to take ingame screenshots. It works fine and I can take multiple screenshots and store them. Also xfire is less of a resource hog then fraps.
