Request for Privateer Players!

Fri Feb 14, 2003 2:00 pm by Bhurak Starkiller

I have a little favor to ask of anyone who still plays or can run Privateer. I need a screenshot of New Detroit, specifically ground level New Detroit, where you're on the street and you can see stores. A few snapshots would be good, like one without any ships flying around, and a few with them.

That's a tall order. I don't even know if I can find my Priv1 disc. I'll look for it and maybe I can get it to run again on my old 133.

I have my disks, but I don't know any programs that do screen captures in DOS. Any suggestions?

That's a good point. I've known how to do a CTRL-printscreen so long that I forgot it only works in windows.

Hmm, have a shot at googling it ... ?

Tried googling.

Hm, I think I saw a screen-cap utility for Privateer somewhere during my googling. I'll see if I can find it.

Edit: Okay, here's one that supposedly works, and supposedly doesn't.

Well, at any rate, I don't want you guys to go to the trouble of installing programs just so I can get my screenshot. Thanks anyways, guys.

Heh, I actually like those cockpits! If they could do 3-d renditions of them today, I'd be a much happier person.

LOL, that's interesting. Well, i doubt they thought of the control system FL has before they said that.
