This has probably already been asked before but how do we use the screen shoot feature. I know we can take screen shot stills but I don't know how to upload them to a album or to post in a thread

under your avatar there's a link called My Screens. click on that and there should be some options for systems that you have screenshots for. click on them, and pick the screenshot you want. hit the copy image location button, and when you want to post the screenshot, hit the second to last button on the toolbar in quick post and paste the image link and hit ok

I tried the way you said my friend but all I found was my bad score for hollywood squares (I wish I could get rid of that) and not my screen shots from Street Of Rage

I couldn't find any screen shots for Streets of Rage in your directory. Did you play it in SCORE MODE or FULL MODE?

Joz, he had to redo his files to get ArcadeOX working again

Play in SCORE MODE to save shots.

Disregard most of the stuff posted in this thread, lots of wrong info.

If you want to save a screenshot of a score then use Score Mode. If you just want a screenshot then use Full Mode.

In Full Mode your screenshot will be saved to your computer. The folder is either
"%temp%\low\arcadeox"
or
"%temp%\arcadeox"
Without the quote marks but the % signs are part of the path. Just type that into the my computer address bar or into a run prompt. You can get a run prompt by pressing the Windows Key + R. Windows key is to the left of the space bar and has a windows flag on it.

Another question what button do you press for arcadeox score mode to submit a score also what button is it to take screen shots

Tails
03-19-2011, 03:03 AM
to submit a score is f12 and to submit in fullmode is f12 as well (I THINK Kong'll need to confirm latter)

Ok I'm probably getting people very ticked at me right now so I'll ask here how do you take screen shots in arcadeox score mode to show that you beat the game for the game master thread. I tried once but I screwed up royally

Tails

:p

first choose aox score, f12 to submit.

But ain't that only to submit scores and to be only pressed once and only once

Tails

it is used to submit scores and mastery, just have to show the ending etc.

alohaex
03-19-2011, 07:17 AM
Ah I get it so I can press it more then once. I just got to finish the game using arcadeox score mode and post the pics in the mastery section (this I don't know how to do).

Tails
03-19-2011, 07:18 AM
No, you have to choose when you submit. Score or mastery.

What is it that you need to be helped with?

Tails

It's one submission per go. If you want to master something you have to choose either submit a score or master UNLESS the score appears on the master screen.

I'm just not getting it Tails make it sound so easy but I don't understand. From what I get to take screen shots to post in the game masters thread first you click arcadeox score mode then you press F12 whenever you need to take a screen shot as much as needed then you go to the game masters thread and post that you beat the game. Tails is saying that I have to say that I'm pressing F12 to take shots for game mastering and not score entry but I also don't know how to do that.

Tails
03-20-2011, 03:13 AM
No..

For mastery typically if you beat it you have to choose to submit your score or submit the mastery, both with f12.

alohaex
03-20-2011, 03:19 AM
Ok so F12 only once to submit score when all lives lost and to get a screen shot that says you beat the game at the end of the game. After you take the screen shot at the end of the game you go to the game master thread and say that you beat the game right

Tails

Yes, if you have any questions regarding a certain game don't be afraid to ask.
