To ad to this here is a screen shot of the path to my COD4 folders. I DID NOT HAVE THE demo and screenshot folders, so I added them after the crashes started. To be clear I have never taken a screenshot or video before today.

Just wondering if my folders are lost or in another location.

Can't you just use the 'Prt Scr' / 'Print Screen' button to do a screen capture?

Maybe I am missing something?

You should be using your software for your GPU....I use my Geforce nvidia software...My bind is alt/z to bring it up then you can set other binds to record/stop or a screen shot

Yes that will work but you can only do 1 at a time then you have to paste it to a word file or note pad etc. You have to leave game or alt tab out to paste it. the F12 will allow you to do multiple print screens and are saved in the game files. I believe my 2 files went missing.

Yes I have the RTX3060 and ALT F9 will record. There was something I want to screen print quickly if you know what I mean🤨

Somebody was growing a Pineapple where he shouldn't Hmm!

Should be located sitting in your players folder and mod folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Call of Duty 4\Mods\xi_mw2_old

 

Demos in player and screenshot in mod folder

I created a custom bind for screenshots and recording.

 

F9 is bound to recording a demo F10 is bound to stop record. F12 is bound to take screenshots because Print Scrn will often return a blank screenshot.

Here are my binds. I use F9 and F10 for recording and F12 for screenshots because those keys are easy to remember.  You can take a screenshot in different formats as well but it must be specified. jpegs are small and decent quality.

/bind F9 record

/bind F10 stoprecord

/bind F12 screenshot jpeg

Using the Demo Manager app, there is a key binds page which you can also set your keybinds there as well for recording.

^^ what he said.

This is an old game, and it cannot allocate memory for higher resolutions than FHD (1080p). Everyone has already suggested the alternates but not to be outdone I have one too.

 

Put your phone on a mount pointing to your monitor and take a picture. Simple :D. Boom, done!

Make sure that your game resolution and desktop resolution are the same or run in windowed mode which is a bigger pain in the ass. COD4 usually hangs if you tab out in Windowed mode.
