hey wassup, i've never done a screen capture before, but my rookie entered a small UFO and saw 5 floaters...a great screen. how can i save it as a file on my Win 2000 comp?

Getting screen captures depends on the version of the game.

If it's the original dos version, just press the 'print screen' key and a double sized image will be put into your Windows clipboard. Just paste it into an image editor of your choice, such as MS Paint, Paint Shop Pro, Adobe Photoshop, the Gimp, irfanview etc.

In the Windows edition, press 'F12'. The screenshot will be saved as a targa file in your game directory. Just look for files with the .TGA extension. You can open it in a variety of image editors/viewers, then convert it to a more common image format.
