Taking Screenshots:
There is a screenshot tool in the game that was designed for our use only, but was accidentally left in on our first beta release. People liked it so we have left it there. Someday we will tidy it up, but as it was never initially intended for public use, it is sort of an 'as-is' thing for now. That being said, it can take some beautiful shots.
F12 should open the screenshot tool to take images of your course (we know this is the default Steam screenshot button, so you will have to remap in Steam or you will take a screenshot every time you open the tool). This tool allows you to tailor focal length, blur, etc. Pressing Enter (A button) will take the shot (if you use your Steam screnshot key the image will contain the tool's overlay). If you take the picture with the Enter key (or A button on the controller) the image will be saved to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\TheGolfClub and will ignore the tool overlay. There is no audible sound to let you know the shot was taken.
To exit the screenshot tool press Esc twice, then press F12 again.
