Where do the High-Res Screenshots go?
In the game, you can take High-Res Screenshots with Shift+F12.
I would like to know where the images end up.
Thanks for helping!

In Linux it's: ./.local/share/Colossal Order/Cities_Skylines/Screenshots

Correction, it's C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\Colossal Order\Cities_Skylines\Screenshots

Correction, it's C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Colossal Order\Cities_Skylines\Screenshots

or simply just %LOCALAPPDATA%\Colossal Order\Cities_Skylines\Screenshots

You can paste this into the title bar to get right to it.

For some reason &USERNAME& didn't work for me in win10?

Ah, it's %USERNAME%, of course! lol

You can paste this into the title bar to get right to it. Not sure why some people forget that &USERNAME& is a variable and automatically changes, so you don't have to type in your username. People do <> makes life difficult.

Like MarkJohnson said, it's not ampersands, it's percent signs. It'd be nice if you'd edit your message just to avoid confusion.

Also, "C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local" should be exactly equal to "%LOCALAPPDATA%" for most people anyway, and if they're not equal that means the C:\Users\ part is wrong... so there's no point in including the longer one anyway.

You can delete this now to avoid confusion for people who might come across this thread. I made the correction a while ago.

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
