Summary: When I hit F9 in the garage or main screen, it appears to take a screenshot (the screen animations pause for a second). If I Alt-Tab out to MSPaint, and try to paste, nothing appears.

Steps to Reproduce: Press F9 in any screen, and attempt to paste into a picture editor.

Frequency: Everytime.
Severity: 1(minor).

Additional Notes: Are screenshots stored in a directory in the Program Files folder_ Doesn't seem to be the case.

Does the F9 key only function in a game_ I joined a game with only one player and, again, taking a screenshot in the lobby did not produce anything.

Anyone else able to take a screenshot_

The screenshots, unless they've moved in CBE3, go to DocumentsMy GamesHawkenHawkenGameScreenshotsWin32Console

And they are stored as bitmaps, so you'll need to convert to JPG or PNG for web viewing.

Thanks for the info. Silly to bury them, but it works.

Use png if you can since jpeg's lose quality every time they get saved

Imho devs should update their "How to Post a Bug Report" to include that info.
