HOW TO TAKE SCREENSHOT?

I want to take screenshot of my score, ingame function doesnt work.

I want to take screenshot of chat while I have my inventory open, ingame function doesnt work.

Why does it not work for these cases? Why is Respawn forcing me to use external hardware to take a screenshot of my endgame stats????

    Hi @fartnitepalyer

    Try this:

    1. Go to the settings menu,
    2. go to Keyboard Shortcuts,
    3. scroll down to the bottom, and assign a screenshot.  

    Next, test this out...take a screenshot from in the game itself so it will then create the "r2" folder to store those screenshots. Keep in mind, screenshots can not be included in the menu.

    Afterwards, to locate the screenshots taken in-game follow these steps: 

    1. Open up File Explorer and navigate to the hard disk where Apex Legends is stored.
    2. Navigate to "Programs (x86)" and click on "Origin Games".
    3. Click "Apex" and the screenshot folder is called "r2". Here are all screenshots.

  • Lanna I appreciate your reply but I am doing that.

    The bind does not work when you want to screenshot scoreboard or endgame screenshot or while doing certain things.

    It used to always work, not anymore.

  • @fartnitepalyer Install irfanview or any other program for viewing images that have screenshot ability. If irfanview, press c to enter screenshot mode, alt-enter apex to enter windowed more and take screen
