What’s the best way to take high quality screenshots of your in progress game?

Hey all. I’ve been working on my game and often I’ll take a screenshot of my game running in Studio using Windows Snipping Tool!

Here is an example of a new starter wooden sword I was proud of

But the quality is kind of poor compared to all the screenshots and vids I see elsewhere. Any best practices? Are there rendering settings I can turn up?

Thanks for the help.

Snipping tools take screenshots using your monitor’s resolution. So if you want actually quality screenshots you need to have a high resolution monitor for that. If not you can download some virtual pc programs and then you can set the resolution of the virtually pc then take a screenshot with snipping tool in that virtual pc (and not the snipping tool of your actually pc). Im pretty sure it will work. Tell me if you need any help :smiley:

Well, using a VM is sort of a crazy suggestion. But I think what I’ll do is run the game full screen (since my monitor’s full resolution is 1080p) and then take screenshots, rather than from the small window within Roblox Studio.

If no other suggestions come in I’ll mark your answer as the solution since I hadn’t considered Studio scaling the resolution to whatever my playtest window is :stuck_out_tongue:

Click on the phone icon on the screen window and click 1080p and it wil, go full screen hd, then take the screenshot in roblox studio not from a external screenshot app.
