Screenshots 2020

Post by J1o2h3n4 »

Hi all,
been away from TS for awhile - cause non stop scenario freezing problems. So have just found the new steam layout and must say, much prefer the old simple one. Hate the library page, lots of info I dont need (more sales inspired no doubt). Plus more complicated to get to the dlc info I do need , ie purchased DLC in chronological order and complete with dates.
Handy for ref, vis-a-vis associated EMail/Paypal invoices and where applicable bank statements.

Does F12, screenshot still work and if so where do I find the taken shots?

Regards JohnT

Certainly does

Mine can be found at D:\Steam\userdata\129997688\760\remote\24010\screenshots

If you go to the Steam Client and Settings>In Game you can chose the folder you wish the screenshots to be saved in

Well, tried as suggested above.
But dont hear a sound when F12 is pressed during the game and no pictures turn up in the selected folder as shown in selectedfolder.jpg.

I tried to set up my TS to save the Pictures in D:\Railworks but it only saves them directly in to D:\
Have a check to see if they are in your D:\ instead of a Sub-folder

If not
When you run the game next take a picture just before you close it down then open the Computer Icon and get it to search all drives for a *.jpg
You can get it to show the Details and it should be top of the list
Just Right Click on it and "Open Folder Location" and that would tell you where they are saved

Actually if anything it's better.

In the Library Tab, click on Train Simulator. Then on the right side of the screen, scroll down a little (about the fourth box down), see a box called "DLC", and at the bottom of that box, "Manage my xxx DLC" (xxx is the number of DLCs you have)

That gives you a similar popup box to what you used to get, but in a much larger and readable font and most importantly, a Search function. It also has the same check boxes as before, allowing you to uninstall and reinstall DLCs when necessary

Thanks Chris,
yes on reflection does appear to be an improvement on the original tiny window. Just I was a little confused on how to get to it.
For those, me included, have done a quickie guide :- ( LC Left click) LC Steam icon on the task bar - Steam window opens - Lc Library tab on Steam window - Lc on TS2020 picture shown in "Recent Games" Panel- Scroll RHS panels down until panel "DLC" appears - LC Manage my xx(No of DLC owned) - Manage DLC window opens.

Still no joy with the screenshot problem.

Perhaps I just missed the function before but I do like now how DLC is grouped, instead of just a big unsorted list. The only grumble I've got is that the DLC button always takes a bit of finding in the first place.

When I look at my list the old way it is sorted by Title.

But because a lot of DLC has a prefix is why it is not in a proper order
