hey everyone, today I found a player saying the N**** word, and I told him it was bannable, so he left, but I really wanted to report him, so I pressed F5(my scrrenshot button) and went to go see it, but, it never uploaded/saved:cursing: I tried to get it on counsel, but it did not work! can someone help me please!:scared:

p.s. I put this here because it seems logic to have it in the banning procedures...

Check under your options....the keyboard tab...make sure F5 is your screenshot taker, possible it got unbound. Or bind it to a different key (if you pounded F5 so much you might have broke it..hehe..j/k) and see if that helps. Outside of that, might clean out the screenshots folder? And its also possible it didn't take the command right the first time I know in the heat of battle trying to take a screeny and it didn't work for some reason but worked other times.

i don't use the f5 key, usually i just print screen, stick it in paint, downsize it and save as new image =]

Typing "screenshot" into the console with it open and hitting enter will take a screenshot of your screen with the console open. If someone drops an N bomb and leaves just scroll waaaaaaaay up because at the beginning of every map you get a Status printout (unless that's just me from an old bind or something)

I used to do that. That works fine, the problem is when you want to take more than one at a time. :001_tongue:

EDIT: Oh and Taylor, to get a readout of Steam ID's, type 'status' in console. Generally when I see someone drop the N bomb I'll go to the console and type status immediately so that one screenshot can show both the Steam ID's of everyone on the server and the offending remarks. In fact, 'status' is probably bindable to a key.

i hav da same problem as u

my f5 doesnt work that good, so i changed screenshot taking to f10 and thats better anyway cuz f10 cuts u off the game meanin it makes u quit, so if u substitute it with f5, there is no possibility that youll quit by pressin f10

and, if u want to see if u REALLY took a screenshot or not, press the screenshot button AND THEN go to console and see if it says somethin like "taken a screenshot at (time)"

for the uploading image site, i'd say www.imageshack.net

P.S dont check the boxes below the upload url and above the policy agreement box
