HOW TO ENABLE Print Screen Key board button to take screen shots.

1st you will need to Modify 2.ini files.

A) go to the hard drive you loaded Oblivion in and find the file:
Oblivion_default.ini

B)open the file and search for [Display] from there
search down a dozen lines or so and you'll see line

bAllowScreenShot=0

C) Change the "0" to "1" go to top of that page and click file and then "save"

D) the other file is in MY DOCUMENTS\My Games\Oblivion\

E)again find The Oblivion_ini folder and find the Oblivion_ini file.

F)again open the file and search for [Display] from there
search down a dozen lines or so and you'll see line .

bAllowScreenShot=0

G) again Change the "0" to "1" go to top of that page and click file and then "save"

now your done and everytime you press the Prt Scrn Key on the keyboard while
playing Oblivion you will get a new screen shot saved in your files.

Got any for us? [img]tongue.gif[/img] Some of us don't have the game yet :-/ and I'd be interested in seeing some of our genuine screens rather than the polished-up ones on the site.

Where do the screenshots go ? I made a few but can't seem to trace them.

Try search for files most recently created with the windows search option.

In the game folder I heard, but I didn't take any myself.

You could also try toolionk in the mygames folder in your documents, there is an Oblivion folder there.
