Well, yes that's right, I checked in my Soldat 1.2 screenshots folder for the first time just a minute ago, and what did I see?

53 screenshots just sitting there, and I didn't take a single one myself.

They are taken at VERY random times.

Eg. I have one at the start screen (profiles, ok, exit)
One ingame, where I'm just standing there chattin.
One that's completely black.
Heaps that say "you have killed somone!"
Heaps that say "Deathmatch Started!"
Some in the join menu...

but WTF!?!

Can j00 all check in your screens folder and tell me if you're getting the same thing?

Well don't use Alt+F4:). I made F4 because it's closer to the control keys.

Michal, i'm still using f11 and it works perfectly does it have anything to do with me patching 1.1.5 not re-installing soldat as 1.2 ? :P

Hahahahahah I was about to post saying about the control change...

Its gonna take ages to get used to. F5 is play music, F6 is pause music,
F8 is demo, F4 is screeny...minimise is F9 isn't it?

Michal - Some reports of the patched version of Soldat behaving differently to the full install.

Especially with the screenshot key (eg. for some people it's not F4...)

!! When did Night Cabbage get warned? for what? Anyways, on topic...

Yes, NC, I can attest to this. I got the patched version and I have noticed that F11 works just fine, and there are some old DLLs hanging around, and some old graphics (which makes modding somewhat difficult).

ah yes, I warned myself... Styx unwarned me... gotta be professional and all eh? ;)

lol

Michal - (this is one of the reasons why I tried to get you to release 1.2 without a patch version) Can u put together a fixed patch for 1.2?
