Tips for taking great screenshots:

  • Press Shift+CTRL+H to get rid of all the interface elements so you can take a clean shot.

  • If you press "ALT" you can get rid of the crosshairs.

  • When taking your screenshots, be sure to turn on your personal light (CTRL+L). This can help prevent cases where an otherwise great screenshot is unusuable due to being too dark.

  • You can change your camera angle by switching modes (Press ALT) and turning your Chase Camera off (Press period "." on your number pad).
