Htpcorsica, CFS3 Screenshots are done by pressing Ctrl + ; (colon/semicolon key). Afterwards, look in your Windows My Documents folder for Combat Flight Simulator 3.0 folder. Those pics will be inside.:d

Well, in my keyboard I just have to press Print Screen, not Crtl+Print Screen. Don't forget to pause the game first.
After you press "print screen", press Alt+Tab to minimize CFS3, go to Paint Brush and choose "Edit" and then "Paste". You may be ok then.
If you want to save your pic, better choose a .jpeg format.

Hope it helps

Hi Nonato Old buddie, best do it Grizzlys way then you can capture as many as you want, if you use print screen you only get one at a time(or the last time you press print screen is the shot you are left with) You can Also change the keyboard key in the in game menu.

...or you can download FRAPS which allows you designate any key. The free version also allows you 30sec vid clips and other FPS measuring tools. I use the paid version so I get jpeg screenies saved and no limit vids.

BTW CFS3 allows you choose which key you want to use. But it saves in bmp.

I set up my install to use the space bar to take screenshots. You can make it any key you want under the control options menu.
