Whenever I hit the print screen key to take a screen shot, instead of copying the screen shown on my monitor, the image that shows up when I paste it into MS paint is the login screen greyed out with a loading wheel. Has anybody else had this problem? Thanks!

It's never been an issue for me, but have you checked the "screenshots" folder in your MWO file? A while back they added in functionality, such that hitting "print screen" will save your screenies directly to their own folder, so that you don't have to paste into Paint anymore.

Failing that, you could try downloading the free versions of something like MSI Afterburner or FRAPS to take screenshots.

f12 is the screenshot button for mwo. It saves the screen shots in your MWO folder, under users.

How come PGI this isn't documented anywhere in-game? No in-game tip seems to mention it. While I'm at it the tips cycle too fast now.

Is it not in the key bindings?
