Subject: Maximum number of screenshots?

This is a RETICULE, and that is a RETICLE. I'm using the latter to aim. And what are you using?

Hiya!

I make a lot of screenshots; whenever anything funny, interesting, odd, or otherwise "screenshotworthy" happens, I hit the Print key. Now I noticed that I have only 22 files in my screenshot folder (C:\Programme\Microsoft Games\Halo\screenshots). They are named "0screenshot00.tga", "1screenshot00.tga", etc. down to "21screenshot00.tga".

Are those files being overwritten if you quit Halo and start it again? Does it use an internal counter for screenshots and not the files/filenames already in the folder?

Heyyo,

I'm quite sure there's no limits to screenshots. :)

I do suggest thought that you just use something like fraps for screenshots cause it saves them as jpg's and not tga's, and definately has no limit.

I tried FRAPS and I didn't like it (framerates went down into the cellar and stayed there). And I only need pictures, not movies. And IrfanView has no problems editing and converting .tga's into everything else.

uhh... as far as i knew print screen copied it to clipboard...then you pause the game...hit alt+tab...go into paint...paste...save as whatever.. then go back to game...
