Can't take screenshots anymore?
Does anyone else have a problem with taking screenshots in this game? The game just won't let me take them. F12 key doesn't work nor does changing a key binding help. Steam Overlay is always on in this game, so I don't think it's the one causing the problem. The other games let me take screenshots just fine.

it's been known to do that.
I always had it disabled, still can't take screenshots. Also tried switching from borderless fullscreen to fullscreen and vice versa - and this didn't help either.

Changing the hotkey doesn't help. I can take screenshots in other games but RDR2.
DirectX 12 fixed screenshot problem for me. I was using Vulkan before.

I have same problem in RDR2, F12 doesn't work. It only worked when I play game in windowed mode but no chance in windowed borderless. While F12 is not functioning anymore, the new game record feature of Steam is also unable to capture RDR2 audio in its clips unless it's set to capture all system audio instead of game audio.

Yeah. Switching from Vulkan to DX12 does fix the problem, and Steam Game Recording audio works too now without needing to record all system audio.
