Photo mode on Epic. Is it even possible to screenshot if not on Steam?
As the game itself apparently has no option to take a photo from the photo mode, and Epic does not have a screen capture button, is it only Steam customers that managed to pre-order, before Deep Silver whisked it off to an epic exclusive, that will be able to actually take screenshots?

I only ask because;- https://www.metrothegame.com/news/photo-mode/

They say it will be available on day one, but in this review;-

It says "The cool photo mode is also somewhat undermined, given that neither the game nor the Epic launcher has a screenshot button. Whoops."

I know right. But I suppose there is small chance they could fix it before release later today. :GoldenPoo:

Can you take several pictures per gaming session like that or just one? For example in War Thunder I might take 40+ photos in about 4 hours or so.

Come to think of it Windows has a built in screenshot function at least on 10. winkey+printscreen iirc.

No one should ever be recommending the hilariously obsolete and resource wasting FRAPs to anyone. Ever.

Geforce Experience ain't too great either.
Why dont u just use fraps or something? Epic is a crap but PrintScreen isnt only ur option for capturing screenshots in pc.. unless ure talkin about ingame photo mode

It should support Ansel anyhow. I really hope they fix that Photo mode if it doesn't work properly though.

Should be pretty easy for the Devs to put an option option to capture screen in photo mode to a folder, just depends if they want to or if they'll wait for the DLC and add it then.

Can you confirm it only captures the game screen and not the other monitors I have hooked up and active? Also will it take multiple images, say around 40, and after I finish playing and exit the game they all just pop up in a preview window with timestamps etc for me to post wherever I like?
