Welcome to POF and have fun! :D

Everyone at the POF is friendly and willing to help.

is anybody going to answer my question i posted like a week ago?

The screenshots you take get saved to a file. You can open them, view them, delete them, all with ease. I don't know if there re multiple test servers, but an open server is the actual game whereas the test is where everthing gets tested first.

Scanning for ealier Q's... ehp, good.

When you take a screenshot in the game (F9 on PC). It creates a jpg picture file of your screen in the Pirates Online game folder using filenames that start with the word "screenshot".
Pirates Online default folder:
C:\Program Files\Disney\Disney Online\PiratesOnline

There is both information on that in the guide at this link:

Jack IronMalley's Guide to image hosting...


The difference between test and open servers? Open servers are servers open to public. This is where everyone playing the game (to play the game) are generally at. All content on these servers has been reviewed and gone through a certain amount of testing proving it stable enough for the "open" or public servers.

Test servers are Invite only servers, different version of the software (test), and different servers used for pre-release versions of the game. They will put patchs, upgrades and new features here to be tested by invited test pirates before putting them on the open/public server. Yes they are playing, but with the responsibility of reporting all bugs, glitchs, and perceptions of proposed adjustments on old, current, and new content (whatever the devs want to test out).

Disney currently appears to invite pirates to be test pirats based on thier account tenor, and usage on the open/public servers, but they do what they want to do.. not always consistent. :)

ok thank you. but i still cant find my screeshots. do i have 2 save them or something? If so, how?

go to search from the start menu. type in screenshot. search all files and folder. send to: my documents. go to an image hosting site (i use tinypic.com)
and upload your image. write down the img code, or copy and paste it onto the posting box that pops up when you click on the little mountians.
