How to start the fuction to take a video (gif?)

Post by marionline »

Hello,
How do I start the fuction to take a video (gif?) instead of single screenshots?
I thibk i read somewhere that the new version of the engine supports this, but I couldn't figure out how to use this feature.

F12 does single screenshots

CTRL+F12 starts/stops gif recording

All available keys in-game are documented in the F8 Debug Menu.

Unfortunately not all keys available in Custom, like F12/Ctrl+F12, are documented in the F9 Global Editor Options menu. I should probably add them.

Usually I look up F1 first to figure out about anything about the engine.
Some information there could help as well.

You can press F1 on the Debug Menu too.

Actually, in Custom I'd like to add a help page with general controls, and link to it from every other F1 help page. (We need links!)
