Taking Screenshots On the compact keyboard, press the "]" right brace key to close all
open windows in the game and clear them out ready for the screenshot. To take the picture, depress
the "[" left brace key. While "]" is selected, you won't see messages sent to you etc., nor will
you see the "Screenshot saved" or "Screenshot cannot be saved" messages. Depress the "]" right brace
key again to display messages. If the "Screenshot cannot be saved" message displays, it means
you've filled up your "camera" and you need to get a new roll of film (well, not really, hehe).
To keep your images and clear out space for new screenshots:
Hard Drive Access To find your final fantasy screen shots on your hard drive, they are typically in a spot like this:
C:\Program Files\PlayOnline\SquareEnix\PlayOnlineViewer\pub\home01\open\ScreenShots\FinalFantasyXI
If you "run out of film," you may move these pictures to another directory and start over. Keep moving
pictures to your other directory as you fill it up. The names are always different so you don't have to
worry about accidentally replacing a screenshot.
Playonline Viewer Access
If you use an XBOX or PS2, you may find them via the Playonline viewer as well.
Log into your Playonline Viewer. Go to the menu that has: Games, Navigator, Extras, etc.
Click the NAVIGATOR link. Go to the link for File Manager. It will display your greeting
cards as a default. Mouse over to the icon on the top right for SCREENSHOTS. Click
Screenshots. Click on one of the screenshots displayed.
Email a screenshot You may ATTACH TO MAIL and mail it to your
email account. Or compose a mail and select the ATTACH FILE paper clip icon. Click the SEND MAIL link.
Check your email and it should be in your email as a file attachment. You may save the file to your hard drive.
Return to our site and you may upload the file and select it from your hard drive.
