Taking World Of Warcraft Screens

I've tried Grab and using shift-command-4 + spacebar. Both result in capturing a black window.

Does anyone know how to successfully screen cap the game?

yes i play the game you hit F13 then go to the wow folder there is a folder inside that says screenshots your screen shot will be inside that folder.

my question is there any way to do a video screen capture as in a movie of the game for pc there is fraps.com but i want something to work with my G5

But I'm on an iBook and only have up to f12... :/


edit: time to customize some key bindings...

edit2: but I see neither the binding, nor this folder you speek of

in that case,I dont play wow, but try going to the app, control click it, click show package contents, then look in the different folders for a folder called screenshots.

did it, found nothing but the normal technical stuff

Okay, you are going to remap a key to act as F13. You won't find a screenshots folder in your WoW folder until you take a screenshot, make sense? During the game you can hit F13 (or whatever key you bind this function to) and it will show a little message on the screen (screen captured), after exiting the game go back to your WoW folder and there will be a new folder inside called "screenshots" where all your screenshots will be saved.

you can also use the command-shift-3 to do a screen shot and if you want to capture video you use snapz pro x which has a free trial of like 30 days and then it costs like 10 bucks
