Looks awsome ingame too.

Its not easy to do a normal house Davion parade scheme, as the way they apply the colours is not the same on all mechs, let along in the right places.

for me (and quite a few of my unit too for that matter), I'm using MSI afterburner.

Its msi's overclocking tool, with handy screen capture and video capture feature.

Free to download, simple to use.

edit

just to point out, it takes a pic of whatever is *on top*

So when you have the mechbay open, it only takes a pic of MWO not your desktop too.

BTW I tried getting my crew to pick Hot Pink and Black. Ya, it didn't fly.



I am not a Davion, but I will help you out. Just hit CTRL + Print Screen, then open Paint and past into a new project. Nothing lighter than that, since Paint is part of Windows.

Thanks. I feel like it's important to note the shades of Davion red, white, and blue. These are not dark shades, like Kurita red or Steinar blue. Also, remember that you can go the route I chose and affiliate with a particular Davion unit that may not use the standard parade colors (although I think it's debatable if the parade colors would be used in the field by any unit).

Thank you sir.... Glad House Davion decided to align itself with Stiener becoming the Federated Commonwealth

These are the shades I would recommend for Davion red, white, and blue. Unfortunately they all cost 1,000 MC a piece.

I run through Steam, so I can take screenshots through the steam overlay. It's something that I'm running anyway, and it doesn't seem to have any problems.

I was sad to find that the Founder's mechs have little in the way of customization options. However, they are a faded, scarred up blue...

...So I picked out the shade of red that most possibly could be faded from the 'proper' parade colors as well! Best I can do with what they allow. And I do like the battle-scarred look.

I found it hard to get a good Davion Color Scheme. As posted before the places where you can put on the colors makes it hard.
I tried to keep atleast 1 or 2 true colors of Davion.

I do think the Hunchies have the best setup to paint them XD
