Is it possible to take in-game screenshots and if so how?
Thanks for the help.

Don't if there's a key like there is in Thief or not, but eitherway you can use Windows' built-in screen grabber:
1- press "PrintScreen" (places a screenshot on the clipboard)
2- press Alt-Tab to switch to desktop
3- open your preferred bitmap editing application (Paint will do)
4- Ctrl-V to Paste screenshot from clipboard.
5- Save
6- Alt-Tab back to Arx to continue playing

I'm not sure whether Alt-Tab works with Arx.
However, prior to patch 1.15, there was an option in the config file to enable screen capture. Then, you just had to press a key (F12 IIRC).
But now, with patch 1.15, the config file has disappeared and I don't know anymore how to do.

Editable config files are usually a good thing... Has the file moved somewhere else? Or can you drop a config file into the same location and have the game read it?

cfg file is still used, that's sure.
to make a shot : press F10

Thanks Raf!

I must be blind or something because I just can't see the config file any more in my Arx directory. :confused:
Can anyone remind me the exact name of the file ?
I've seen nothing that resembles "config.ini" or "arx.cfg" or anything with "*.cfg" or "*.ini"...

I have a file named cfg.ini in my Arx folder. Don't know what happened to yours though as I'm running the 1.15 patch. :o

I know what the problem was!
I installed patch v1.15 which indeed deleted the cfg.ini file.
But I did not run the game any more (because I lent it to a friend so that he could see how Arx is great and how much he should buy it).
Now he (hardly) gave me the game back and I could run the game with the new patch, which created a new cfg.ini file.
