Which directory do the Quake 3 screen shots go to? I use the "printscrn" button on my keyboard, but I don't know where they save the images at.
Thanks,
arod324.

I don't think there is a "paintbrush" directory on my comp. I know you would use paintbrush to view the image... since it will probably be a *.bmp.

I think it's f6 or f8 or something to take a shot, it should be in one of the quake directories. (I don't have Quake III, just Alice and FAKK2 so I could be wrong). Pressing printscreen should put a shot in your cut and paste, open up an imaging program and paste into a new document, you might be able to grab it like that.

Why not just press F11 and look under your C:\Games\Quake III Arena\BaseQ3\Screenshots folder or what ever your installation directory is. Isn't it stored in RAM but on the clipboard....

You can bind the screenshot action to any key, and you can also capture screens in the JPEG format with the command 'screenshotjpeg'.

Example: /bind F11 screenshotjpeg
