Hi guys,

Sorry to ask this Q but.

Were the hell is the screens shots held ?

I have looked in all the places as well as steam nothing.

Gone to mydoc's/IL2soft whatever/ screen shots/.......nothing!

What key is it to take a screenshot?

I used to have it sorted but have lost the touch.its been a while since i have flown COD but since new Beta patch getting back into it.:)

Cheers
O_Smiladon

[Buchon]

Windows is overlaying the <Print Screen> key, that´s why that the game don´t take screenshots.

Just go to in game options and remap the screenshot key to another key, to f12 for example, and the game will take screenshots again and locate them in your \Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\screenshots folder.

What a fantastic detailed mesh - soo realistic! (rear wheel shot off too)

Playing one of the quick missions, flying Blenheims to bomb a airfield (where's the bombs?), I usually get intercepted by 110s on the home journey .. and that's it! All over red rover! .. Firing the Vickers shoots all over the place & i usually get killed fairly quickly .. :(

Just goes to prove the 110 was a stable firing platform and a heavy hitter, while the turreted vickers was basically useless.

...Pity we cannot save tracks like in IL2-1946 where you could run them back in slow-motion, swap aircraft, swap views etc...

Hit Escape while flying, select Start Recording, give the track you're about to record a name, click Save, then click Fly to return to mission. Your track is now being recorded. To stop the recording either exit the mission altogether, or just hit Escape again and select Stop Recording.

To play the track you've just recorded, go to the main menu and select Extras/Tracks/Select, choose the track you want to play, click Open, then Play...

Open up the image on Imageshack and see if you can find the 'Embed this image' drop-down menu amongst several other options on the right hand side of the screen. From that 'Embed this image' drop-down menu, copy the text in the box named 'Forum', then just paste that text straight into your post on the forums here. Click Preview Post to see if the image is showing. If the posted image has 'Uploaded with ImageShack.us' written after it, just delete the 'Uploaded with [URL=http://imageshack.us]ImageShack.us/URL]' part of the text you copied. There may be other ways of embedding images, but that's what works for me anyway.

Quick question, how do you guys make those nice screenshots without having all the 'garbage' on your screen like the chatbox and control indicators? Do you crop it out or is there something else?

[burlaff]

You have to Alt-click the box you want to get rid of, then it will turn a more opaque grey. I think then you right click the box to bring up a little menu and you select 'delete info window' or something like that.
(Obviously you would have to do this before you took the screenshot...)

[Buchon]

Quick question, how do you guys make those nice screenshots without having all the 'garbage' on your screen like the chatbox and control indicators? Do you crop it out or is there something else?

The best way to make screenshots, and movies, is recording tracks.

Tracks are not video files, they are data files that contain our mission configuration and action´s tracking data.

With which missions can be played using the game plays as theater.

Playing tracks you can pause, go forward, go backward, slow-motion, change the camera, the field of view and position of them, switch planes ... and hide windows and icons.

To make a track file just click record in the mission options and make a record track file, "replay.trk" for example, to use has default replay´s vault.

Then if the mission was worth to replay go to "Main menu / Extras / Play tracks" to play the last mission´s replay file.

Once is loaded there will be options of "Change views", "Hide message windows" and "Hide icons", just tick them and click start (if the screen is showing blue artifacts press F1, its a bug).

Using this way you dont have to deal with changes in info windows configurations, saving your current one, and you have no limits to make beautiful screenshots.

Can you rephrase this question? It sounds like you're asking how to upload a picture into the game, like as a menu background or something, but you might also be asking how to upload a picture to the forums here.

[badfinger]

You are right about my wanting to upload pictures to the forum. Sorry for the confusion.

binky9

[Les]

No worries. You can attach pictures to your posts by scrolling down to the 'Manage Attachments' box when you're writing your post and uploading the picture from your computer, but this will only make your picture appear as a link in writing that people will have to click on in order to view the picture.

What most people do is upload the picture to an image-storing website like http://imageshack.us/ This allows you to embed the picture, as is, in your forum posts via a link the storage website automatically provides when you upload a picture to them.

It's a bit of a hassle getting it all set up and then figuring out exactly how to embed the images (although really all you do is copy and paste the embed link straight into the post you want it to appear in, you don't have to use any of the forum tools to do it), but it's worth setting it up just to give yourself the option of inserting pictures into not just screenshot threads but any other forums you might use.

Just a point to remember, you'll want to reduce the size of your 1920x1080 screenshots by about half in order to make them fit the forums format and keep them from going off the side of the page.

[Pato Salvaje]

lol OK.
Thank you. I´ll try it.

[kristorf]

Pause the game (or track), disable TrackIr (F11 for me), F10 to remove the cursor arrow (this also free's up camera movement), then move the mouse until you get the angle you want.

[Les]

How you do this?

Sokol1

Not possible. He probably just meant fast forward, you can't rewind without restarting the track altogether.

Rodolphe, how did you get the reflections!?

[41Sqn_Stormcrow]

They are still there but only under very specific conditions. All other reflections that would have been there have been somehow filtered out with last patch.

[SQB]

Fair enough, but look at:
http://users.teledisnet.be/web/mfe39146/Nacht3.jpg
(I won't embed the image, don't want to screw up formatting with someone else's pic)

The reflection are easily visible on the top of the wings, across the engine and on the side of the plane. I started the new beta (2) with the nightfighter skin at a similar time and there is NO light reflection on the top of the wing (the most visible spot in the pic) nor anywhere else!

The effect is also very visible in the he111 pics and a couple of the other by Rodolphe, if there is ANY way to get this effect back please for gods sake tell us because it really makes the game look fantastic.

Nice pic!..

[Flanker35M]

S!

In the pic Verhängnis posted you can clearly see the draw distance of the new textures. The "patterned" landscape ends and turns to solid green. Only forests remain dark green. This is the draw area around your plane I have been talking about. Most easily seen when taking Single Player -> Quick Mission -> Free flight England. Press fly and look towards France and you see what I mean..the landscape is textured only at a small area near coast but inland it is light green/sand colored. This textured area moves along whey you fly and quite easy to spot. So I really hope Luthier & Co fix this along with the performance issues :)

[Verhängnis]

Thanks, it shows the fine detailing in the Wing. Textures in CoD are great. :)

Nice picture.

Did you have to touch up the propellors, cockpit glass and smoke/vapour by hand after compositing, or is there a way to do it automatically? With my limited knowledge of such things I just can't figure out how you managed to include those semi-transparent elements.

Very nice evocative screenshots Rodolphe!

However I do not believe there were any such single aircraft hangar in Mannheim-Sandhofen :-); see the photo below:

http://www.fliegerhorst-sandhofen-coleman.de/index/bilder/map_1939.jpg

Sandhofen was one of these typical peacetime-built German air bases with large aprons and hangars. Mölders aircraft were usually in the open, or inside the large hangars.

The single-fighter hangars (in their oh so many variations!) were almost exclusive to German bases installed on French soil as of August 1940 or so.

The second screenshot is located in front of a pair of "demi-tonneaux" French hangars, which are also typical of certain peace-time French airbases.
Their CoD rendition is very nice and on the spot (I should know, I provided the data). There were however quite sparse in CloD area: Rouen-Boos (one pair), Amiens-Glisy (one pair), Caen Carpiquet (two sets of four pairs),and close by but not in the CloD area, Lille-Vendeville (one pair)...
So if you could do the same with a Bf-110 of I., III. or Stab/ZG26, you would be spot-on...but poetic license being what it is, I would not hold it against you :-)

Amically,

JVM

Some really nice shots there guys.

But could you please use the original screenshot thread here - http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=19658&highlight=screenshots

Or this one for more artisitic, edited screenshots - http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=23294&highlight=screenshots

This thread was started by Rodolphe to highlight his own work in particular.

It's no big deal, but it'd be good to maintain a central screenshot thread as a reference so people can see the history of the game's development, and so good pictures like you're posting here don't get spread all over the place and 'lost' over time.

Of course it would help too if a mod would sticky the main screenshot thread linked to above as well. That seems to have been overlooked somehow.

Hey

After a nice fight with a bf 109 i tried to get home like this... and then run into the escort of a single he 111, which was my end...

The Other one is possibly the max altitude in the game. In Multiplayer a 109 got sucked upwards by god after having a ping-timeout. With the external view of enemys allowed, i took that screenshot.

[41Sqn_Stormcrow]

I realize how strangely the glass nose of the Blennie was designed. Anyone knows the reason for this?

Another interesting detail:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol_Blenheim

apparently the bomb doors where not opened automatically but by the shear weight of the bombs when they were released and falling on the doors that were kept closed by bungee cords ... reduced bombing accuracy. I wonder if this is simulated in the game.

[IvanK]

Yep to give the pilot a better view over the nose.

The first example of the "Long Nose" Blenheim had a full enclosure like the HEIII. (See lower image below)There were visibility issues with this. The next design had a symmetrical type arrangement to the nose panels (See upper mockup image). This too had over the nose pilot visibilty issues. The solution was to scallop the section immediately in front of the pilot thus giving him a better over the nose view/sightline.

http://img838.imageshack.us/img838/9500/blenheimivnose.jpg

Strangely the Blenheims ultimate derivative the Beaufort had symmetrical nose panels. The Blenheim V had a solid section here as well.

Yeah Krupi, they're those special FMB clouds. They still need a hell of a lot of work though to make them good for anything other than very selectively composed and edited screenshots and video shots. They're very hard on the frame-rates and have lots of graphical bugs.

Glad you like the pics guys. I just used GIMP, the free image manipulation software. All I did was use it's 'Clone' tool to cover up the instrument indicators, then use it's 'Smudge' tool to blur the banding in the clouds, then resized the images, nothing to it really.

my first thoughts about these: "Please tell me that´s not real" HAHAHA....:grin:

[Les]

I know what you mean. Dores really hit on something there with that combination of colour and composition.

I like the way he kept the planes largely silhouetted and at a believable distance from the camera. I have no idea what he did with the colours though. The first picture looks like it's got some kind of accidentally-overexposed-film-type effect on the left and right, and the second looks like it might have a camera-lens vignetting effect, while both are slightly blurred and seem to have an old film-stock quality to the colours. To my eyes they're excellent examples of how post-processing effects can be used to create a more believable illusion of realism.

Not forgetting of course that these images are also built upon the work of the artists at Maddox Games, who provided the base assets that we then get to manipulate and play with.

I did a few variations, but this one's my favourite. I like the way the distant water looks with the increased darkness and contrast, and how it makes it look like the Spitfire pilot could be looking up straight up into the camera. Thanks for the images, it was fun messing around with them.

no I had to bail but he broke off about 5 minutes before i bailed because there were 2 other 109's that showed up then another 2 reds. That 109 pitched a tent on my 6 and had a pretty good time back there but that photo was my last attempt to shake him and get a shot on him but he already filled the 109 full of lead. Actually he was the 2nd one to do so but the most persistent.

I ended up getting 1 but don't know who or how there were several in the area and I was busier than a one armed man hanging wallpaper.

[JVM]

Are they also fruit trees (specifically, apple trees) available? I am also dreaming of a kind of parametric forest/wood/copse object: we desperately missing this, as we cannot compensate by gathering individual trees to create them, however beautiful these trees may be!
This would be I believe the only way to save on individual tree numbers, and would allow a far better use of those...orchards, for instance, which were ubiquitous and very typical in France in these times!

[Foo'bar]

As much as I like the trees. But I think the tree's barks are way too bright, too greyish. They look like dead dry wood.

I guess the real issue the engine has is that it doesn't contrast the shadow enough. The sunny side is perfectly good I believe (the bark) but yeah, the shadowy side should be a tad darker. The picture above is way too contrasted though. The whites drop off sharp because of very strong over saturation. It's a bad picture that elimitates about 15-25% of the real spectrum.
See this? This is a representation of the spectrum of the picture you posted: http://img851.imageshack.us/img851/7749/curvesil2.png

They appear to have been shrunk in photoshop, so that would take care of the "jaggies" along the edges.

Interesting, when you apply auto color and auto contrast, it will ALWAYS increase the contrast and make the picture less greenish. Food for thought for the devs, when working on the new gfx engine.

[flyingblind]

I find that to get that sort of quality in your screen shot then you really need your game video settings at the absolute highest. Perhaps do a session specifically for taking shots if you get too low fps or stutters for a combat missions. Another thing I like to do is if you think you are in a good scenerio for a shot then hit the pause button first - only works offline of course. Then you can play around with camera angles, FOV, zoom in or out etc. to your hearts content. Like real life photography a good shot can take a lot of setting up and thought rather that just hitting print screen and hoping for the best.

Talking about the wheel hanging down.... was it a common issue for aircrafts to release parts of the gear due to damage? I'm feeling that this happens very often during my play as well.... just out of curiosity

Just look at those screens guys. I think the community has become a little blasé about what we're being offered with respect to CloD. The potential of this product is truly enormous. Just imagine when it's perfected and technology catches up a little.

Yes very common. It is what happens when the Hydraulic pressure/fuel lines are severed. You lose pressure and the gear/flaps etc can't be used or sometimes even lower because pressure keeps them in the Up position.

Most notable on most aircraft when they lose engine power, there is therefore no Hydraulic pressure and landing gear/flaps cannot be used.

Or even on the Spitfire, which had hydraulic prop pitch and landing gear. Which is why there is a compressed air tank in the cockpit for emergency lowering of the undercarriage.

A mod was made for IL-2 1946 which simulates this. At the start of the video is some gun cam footage showing failing hydraulics:
