Taking screenshots

[-MOD- Don Cypherelli 0]

I notice all the box screenshots show no hud or game interface I was wondering how I can get the same for some good quality screeshots for my site etc?

Also I tried looking in faq options etc no option!

Any picture editing software allows you to cut and resize images, try that

well... you need a good comp and a good gfx card plus some photo skills for the shots.. but you can Edit 'em with Photoshop or Paint shop pro for example

In PSP, you can also use the clone feature to take areas near where the hud is and use bits and pieces to cover it up. Its kinda hard to explain, just play around w/ it for a few minutes if you've got PSP. It takes some luck/expireince to get it right though, but it can be pretty effective.

lol um guys i can make my own graphics all i wanted 2 know was if u can or can not remove the hud through an option in the game.

and is the only way to get a face pic is in mp having a guy pose for u?

Two additional tips: turn off the crosshair so you get an unobstructed view, or take screenshots from the commander's view -- that will let you take pictures of yourself from any angle, and from varying distances even without any other players.

It's in your difficulty settings...

I find the easiest technique for removing HUD is to take a screenshot at a larger resolution than the final pic will be, cut out the section without the HUD, then resize it to desired dimensions.

Using black bars at top and bottom of pic can help too (like a movie letterbox format)...

Here is a picture taken using the commander's view:

Another example

All you need to do is put yourself into a vehicle, or have at least one other unit under your command (even if that unit is at the other end of the island), and you can press the Delete/Period key on the numeric keypad to activate the view.

It's a bit like the third-person view, except you can change the perspective using the mouse. Also, the plus and minus keys on the numeric keypad will zoom in and out.
