How to enable and take screenshots:
- Make sure Oblivion is closed
- Find the Oblivion.ini file in "My Documents\My Games\Oblivion"
- NOTE: Oblivion_default.ini in Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion is NOT the one you're looking for!
- Make a copy of the .ini file.
- It is very important to make a back-up copy of the .ini file in case of errors.
- Open the Oblivion.ini file in Notepad
- Find the line "bAllowScreenShot=0" and change it to "bAllowScreenShot=1"
- Save your changes and close Notepad, screenshots should now be enabled.
- When you want to take a screenshot, press the "Print Screen" or "Prt Scr" key on your keyboard. This is usually to the right of your F1-F12 keys
- If successful, you should see a large message in the upper-left of your screen that says "ScreenShot: File 'ScreenShot0.bmp' created."
- Everytime you take a screenshot, Oblivion will create a new .bmp with a new filename (one number larger than the previous screenshot).
- All screenshots are stored as .bmp files in the root of your Oblivion directory. The default location for this is C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion
