print screen button and paste to paint program

that does'nt work in most games. but for alot of games you can enable a setting in the game's config file so that when you click print screen, it will save a pic to a folder.

PrtScn will only capture the Windows desktop and all it's windows. Unless the game is a windowed application (very unlikely), PrtScn is useless (unless the key is remapped by the game itself). For any Direct3D or OpenGL game, you'll need a third party application that can capture Direct3D or OpenGL frames directly.

I want to capture some pictures in the game World of Warcraft. How to make it ?

thanks!

Want to capture your character in action? Make a keepsake of the beauty of Azeroth? It's as easy as taking a screenshot.

For Windows Users:

  • While in the game, press the Print Screen key on your keyboard.
  • You should see a Screen Captured message.
  • The screenshot will appear as a targa (TGA) file in the Screenshots folder, in your main World of Warcraft directory.
  • You may need to get a special image viewing utility to open up or modify the TGA file such as IrfanView if you cannot do so normally.

I use FRAPS, and so far it has worked on all games that I've played. Great little program! Also helps me to keep any eye on the fps when I am tweaking the settings and testing it.
