GForce on CD?

Post by NAP »

I want to purchase GForce platinum, but I want it on a cd, in case I have to reload it for some reason. Is this the way it is delivered or just electronically?

Beautiful effects by the way ;)

Just download the file, and back it up to CD. Do you have a CD or DVD burner.

Make sure you save the serial number to notepad, and burn it to CD also.

Good idea. but do they deliver a cd upon request or is it just electronically delivered?
I have another question.
I tried taking a screen shot of the effects (with the free version) but I only get a black screen Is this locked in payed versions?

1. Electronic download only (to my knowledge)

2. You can take screenshots with the printscreen button on your keyboard, and a free program called "Screen Hunter".

Google Screen Hunter.

I am on an Apple iMac I do not have printscreenshot button on my keyboard, is there another key combination to use I can take screen shots of anything using control, shift 3 with the MAC. Is the payed for version locked for screen shots also? Or is it not locked, and I just can not figure this out?
I am referring to full screen shots

I'm a Mac user, running the paid version of Platinum. You cannot use the standard command-shift-3 screen shot combination to capture images. But you can capture them using G-Frorce's own method.

When you see something you want to capture, hit the ` key [it sits right beneath the ESC key in the upper left corner of your keyboard; the Tilde is the caps version]. A picture will be saved to your desktop in .bmp format, which can be viewed with Preview. I'm not sure if/how to change the default image type—make it png or jpeg, for example.

I tried that but it says screen shots available only if I upgrade to gold, are they still available in platinum?

platinium supports that, in PC version at least
and I doubt that anything supported in gold is not supported in platinium!
you can believe the other mac-user fellows ;o)
