Inventive Dingo forums

I'm wondering if anyone else has had this.  Often when I use print screen ingame, the printscreen acts as if mayhem isn't there, and takes a shot of what I have open behind the game. (I'm playing in full screen on the steam version)

I'm tempted to call this a graphics driver bug, especially if it works in windowed mode.

If you look in %appdata%\MayhemIntergalactic, you might see some BMP files there containing the screenshots that you attempted to take.

Hm, didn't realize the screenshots were supposed to save, was trying to copy them.  I haven't tried in windowed mode.  I've looked all through the steamapps/common/mayhemintergalatic folder, and I haven't found any screenshots, nor the options.ini file mentioned on the dedicated server thread.  I guess there being stored someplace else by steam.

Like I said, the screenshots and options.ini are both saved to %appdata%\MayhemIntergalactic. :)  I know that's not a real path, but it works anyway - enter it into a Windows Explorer address bar and you'll see.

%appdata% expands to the location of the Application Data folder; on Windows XP it's usually C:\Documents and Settings\[your user name]\Application Data, but it moves around on every single new major version of Windows. And it's a hidden folder, just to make it harder to find. Way to go Microsoft. ::)

Thanks for the pointer, I never knew about that folder, and it looks like it has a bunch of stuff thats pretty useful.  now to go look up that command to change the dedicated server name. Thanks!
