Can you post  a Screen Shot to know exactly what you are seeing or what you not seeing

a screenshot is kinda useless to do because my laptop is vista operating system and i cant find the file that has screenshots in it

I have vista and I have a screenshot folder ._.

go to Computer - C - program files - gravity - RO - and if the screenshot folder is not there then make one, that should give you the ability to save screenshots (by pressing "prnt scrn" in game.)


oh! hold on try this, press .. um I think it's F12 to see the battle screen and F10 for the chat.
Try F11 for good measure >_> I think I might have one mixed up.

Vista + User Account Control + Screenshots =

Quote from: GM Fidelis on July 30, 2009, 03:48:35 am

Another possible solution is the following, since you use Windows Vista:
Go to your RO folder, and then the screenshot folder. You should see a button with the caption "Compatibility Files".
Click on it, and you should find your lost screenshots.

Ways to get around this: Don't install RO to your C:\Program Files folder, or disable the UAC, and log in as a user with administrative privileges.

there is no anthem folder on my laptop just the anthem game client

Title: Re: anthem on a laptop
Post by: Fidelis on September 20, 2009, 02:23:41 pm

It's the folder that you specified during the installation. Most people don't change it, so the client should have been installed to the default location, C:\Program Files\Gravity\RO, or C:\Program Files (x86)\Gravity\RO if you're using a 64-bit Windows, or anything similar.
If you REALLY do not know where the folder is, then right click on the "anthem game client" you speak of (I assume the one in the start menu or on your desktop?), choose "Properties," then "Shortcut," and check the path next to "Target," like in this screenshot: http://tux.human.cornell.edu/help/Images/properties_shortcut.gif
