Some ships made by somebody who refuses to use customs.

I refuse to use custom sprites and the like, that being said. here is a ship i made. (NOTE: i make ships with their core showing (most of them) so bare that in mind. also constructive criticism is appreciated because i'm new to this.

Ugh, I still Cannot find out how to find the BFScreen files to upload an image of the ship on...

Does anyone still read this? :p

I posted in the other thread this but I'll do it in some detail here. This is, I think, a better way of doing things in general than the built-in screenshots.

With your shipbuilder up, go into whatever the preview mode is called. Leave the screen there.
On your keyboard there is the "Print Screen" button somewhere (abbreviated Prt Sc on a lot of keyboards). Press it. It will copy an image of the entire screen to your clipboard.
Open any image editing software (Photoshop, MS Paint, etc.) and paste the image from your clipboard to it.
Crop the photo however you like. Save it as a .png or .jpeg afterwards.
Upload that photo to whatever image host sites you like, this is a good example of one.
Post the embedded image here on the forums using the "[img]" function.

After that simply pray that someone replies, since it looks like everyone migrated out years ago.

I did not expect to find activity here after all these years. . . let alone someone actually new.
I will attempt to help you.

Taking screenshots:
Press F9 and the cursor will change to a plus. Click and drag the area to capture as a screenshot.
Press CTRL + F9 will take a screenshot of the entire window.
Format is PNG by default. You can open and save this as a JPG using most paint programs if you choose, as Doogie12 said.

The screenshots are located in the game's main folder, in another folder named "SMScreenshots"
Ex: C:/Games/Battleships Forever/SMScreenshots
Your file path may vary from the example above, but the subfolder is still the same.

If you need instructions, the shipmaker has a manual. Open it by pressing F1. It contains most common shortcuts.

Ah, thanks.

I found this game years ago, but I guess I didn't actually get it until about two years ago.

Let it be said, that good games never truly die, they fade into obscurity until someone discovers their magic once more.

[Lovecraftia]

The main problem is I literally can't find the file smscreenshots, and for some odd reason whenever I look in Battleships Forever it literally is not there.

[Lukasmah]

That's odd. The screenshots should be there. But if the inbuilt screenshot function doesn't work, maybe you could use some external screen capture tool?

Likely, I'll try to find one.
