Read all the rules several times over. Need to ask a few questions and then ready to get started.

Thanks.

Forum follow-up

Hello again. I haven't heard from anyone for forum access. I wanted to make a State of Decay page as the game has tons of firearms in it with off-names. I need help with the simplest way to capture the screens. I know photos of TV's aren't acceptable and I'm okay with that I just need to understand how people are doing it. Want to contribute. Thought the forum would be the best place to clear all of the editing and stuff to make sure the page looks proficient on the first try. Please let me know. --WaterPaladin (talk) 12:17, 30 June 2013 (EDT)

If you're playing the game on a laptop, the simplest way to get screencaps is as follows: (1) pause the game at an appropriate moment, (2) make a screencap by pressing <shift> and <prt sc> at the same time, (3) copy to Paint and cut-off black edges and finally (4) save in JPG format. If you're using a console I am afraid I can't help you, PeeWee055 (talk) 05:56, 1 July 2013 (EDT)

Well, State of Decay is only available for the X360 at the moment, so he's gonna need a capture card to get screencaps. - bozitojugg3rn4ut (talk) 11:10, 1 July 2013 (EDT)
