Screenshots

[Knightcrawler]

Well, I wanted to play around with modeling a CC-7700 for XWA (as a side-project), but I need screenshots from in-game. Well, I couldn't find save states online, so I play through 2 hours of the game and beat the Empire to a pulp and get my precious CC-7700s, but of course the screenshots are all black. No fun. I don't want to extract the model because I don't feel like getting confused today. FRAPs can't take screenshots in Rebellion. Anyone got any ideas?

Well fist of all, if you download RebED and set the research value for the CC-7700 to zero, you won't have to play so long to get the thing. BTW what exactly do you need the screenshots for? If you don't want to extract the model, then it seems you already have that. So, why the screenshots?

[Knightcrawler]

Like I said, the CC-7700 is a ship I'd like to model for XWA. I don't need to extract the model, really. Especially since it's extremely poor quality compared to today's standards. I'd like to make an XWAU-quality model, and perhaps even have it be my first texturing project (it seems like a nice ship to texture). Of course, it'll be public once it's done. It should look really good. However, it would be a SIDE-project.

 

Anyway, how do I take screenshots?

 

*Edit*

 

Oh and actually, I am trying to contact LucasArts/Coolhand for information on the ship that was taken out of the game and the cool Corellian-freighter seen in the FMV of the Rebels taking Coruscant.

Ctrl-printscreen doesn't work?

[Knightcrawler]

Nope.

Well Zeelich's New Rebellion Homeworld 1 Mod has a nice CC-7700 model. If you download it, you could use Homeworld (print-screen key, IIRC) for making your screenshots.

 

Otherwise I'd suggest getting Hypersnap DX. It can provide screenshots from almost every game.

 

EDIT: Btw, welcome back Do you use another name for the XWAU ?

[Knightcrawler]

I guess I'll try Hypersnap DX. I don't have Homeworld and besides, I only use official sources when I make my models.

 

Anyway, I go by Knightcrawler pretty much everywhere I go, or "Tony (Knightcrawler)." Thanks for the welcoming. None of my XWAU projects are complete. The CC-7700 will of course not be an XWAU project (since it wasn't in the game originally and wasn't meant to be, unlike the StarViper and perhaps Modified Strike Cruiser), but hopefully it will be at that level.
