Easy way to take screenshots in game?

    Hey,

    So I have cleared everything up to level 10 of the dungeon. I want to take some screenshots before I go further incase I die or something, and I am not sure if it just ends if I kill Dredmor.

    I was wondering if there is an easy way to take screenshots? I tried steam but that only works if the game uses the steam overlay I think.

    Can I use the print screen button? If that works I am not sure where it saves the screenshot.

    Thankyou

    Print screen doesn't save the screenshot anywhere, it just copys it, so you can past it somewhere, it works great.

    thanks:)

    I also found another post that mentioned adding -opengl to the launch options. This made the overlay work, and also able to take screenshots.(right click on game name, then properties, then set launch options)

    Anyway i just died to 1 monster was fighitng to fast and arch diggle killed me hehe. Well got to level 10 at least. 777k score:)(going rogue permadeath)

    Going to do random builds now.

    What I had to do without Steam screenshots working was:

    Hit PrintScreen.
    Tab out.
    Open a New Paint (or *your image viewer of choice*) Document
    Hit Paste.
    Save As.

    There you go.
