Canyon Network on lowest graphics setting, distant imposter for the land bridges spanning the gullies are not visible until about 50m to 70m from sides (from within the gullies), and about 150 to 200m while above the gullies. As getting closer to the graphic it blinks in and out (mostly out), and tends toward tearing (splashing, whatever) if viewed from side of screen.

I checked on a friend's PC to make sure it was not just me, his card is a geoforce gtx660 or something like that (not my card, so don't really know what it is or the stats except it is supposed to be high end) and 16G ddr3, my card is SAPPHIRE HD 7970 3GB GDDR5 OC with Boost, with CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory (the suggested best with memory sticks for the Sapphire), both running Windows 7. My motherboard/cpu is AMD Phenom-ii x4, 3.25g, as the power requirements are really high for all of it, I tend to run MWO in lowest graphics so as to prevent overheating game crashes (added external blower fan to further increase cooling, my pc overheats like a 12 med laser Nova going full on Leeroy Jenkinz against the entire enemy team.)

I have tried print-screen, and the f keys, but as yet no screenshots that I can find on my PC.

Friend of course can run full graphics (water cooled) but still, same error on both. I do not know if others have noticed this.

Not on mine... sporting i7 3770k CPU (Corsair H100i liquid cooled), Geforce GTX 660ti, 8gb Gskill RAM, mid-grade ASUS Mobo, and a 750tx Corsair PSU... and 5 case fans plus the 2 with the H100i radiator and two drive-bay fans to pull extra air into the case...

MWO really wants a CPU that can hit or push past 3.5Ghz... but seems to me you might need a higher wattage PSU... especially if you're having power requirement issues.

Make sure your thermal paste doesn't need to be replaced between the motherboard and the CPU... add more case fans... clean it out of dust (dust=nasty heat/static conductor). If you can't mount many case fans or create a cool environment and your CPU or GPU is reaching over 150F in temp... don't run games until you fix your **** dude. Consider buying a mid-tower or full-tower setup for your PC... will cost you between $100-250 depending on the case (a good one).

Greetings,

The screenshots are created in the folder location:
C:\Games\Piranha Games\MechWarrior Online\USER\ScreenShots

At least on a Win7 system with an original install, replace the 'C' with whatever default main windows directory you use.

Additionally, you can right click on the game start shortcut and select 'open file location', back up one directory and it's in the same USER folder as above.
(the referenced location is from an original MWO install, now it can be placed nearly anywhere.)

Screenshots are in the USER subfolder of your game install, no matter where you put that. Does not need to be on the partition windows is on, unlike stated above.
