Figured out today how to take proper screenshots i.e. without HUD

[evildiesel]

I have been messing around with assigning multiple actions to the screenshot button. I think it defaults to F12. I have a button F10 and F11 assigned to turn off the hud and turn on the hud so when I take a screenshot I press 3 buttons. Not ideal but the solution that I was trying didn't work. I'm not sure why but I read that

bind "F12" "g_showhud 0;screenshot;g_showhud 1;"

would do it and it didn't. I saw the hud flickering like a millisecond maybe so I guessed it might be too fast. I was looking through the Doom 3 console commands today and added a Wait 1 in between them and it works like a charm. For anyone interested open up your DarkmodKeybinds.cfg file and either add or edit your screenshot command to this and it should work. Here is the line in my file.

 

bind "F12" "g_showhud 0;wait 1;screenshot;wait 1;g_showhud 1;"

 

And as always thanks to the devs and mission makers for such a wonderful gaming experience.
