Once you're in game, you can immediately press ALT + F2 to get into Ansel Photography mode and start taking snaps. or you can type in the following command in the console: cheat enablespectator Once that is enabled, hit your DELETE key and it'll open the Depth of Field Options menu where you can play around with the games DOF. Then hit ALT+F2 and take some awesome Ansel photography! Here's a little tip from Jesse: Quote You can also type "enablespectator true" in the console to fly around before you take your shot, and hit the "Home" key to level your camera if you want to keep people from feeling sick on a 360 stereo VR screenshot.

Victoria82 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Oh no, I must have missed the closing date! Oh well. As for using flickr, it was what I used after trying to upload the images to both the gallery here and my imgur, and failing. I guess it had trouble with the large file sizes? No idea. And yes, I did send them via email as well. No matter, I had fun taking the screenshots and using Ansel. Can't wait to get into VR one day.

No worries, there'll be a new Community Crunch this week, just keep an eye out for it and repost them, but you sent the email anyway so that's good.
