How'd you like to change your screenshot folder?

It's good since most people don't know where's the screenshot folder is.

Greetings and a super-duper happy Friday!

We were originally planning to add a feature to change the save screenshot directory in version 2.0, but as a result of looking in to doing this for the current version, I’d like to inform you all that it will actually be implemented in patch 1.22a!

We will be adding “Saved Screenshot Folder” to the FINAL FANTASY XIV Config and it will be possible to indicate which directory you would like to save your screenshots to.

Here is an idea of what it will look like:

Great! But I have one problem. On my keyboard missing Scroll Lock key (keyboard not broken, there never was scroll lock) What should I do?

While you are at it, can we change various parameters for logging?
Log dump location
Log file size or frequency (i.e. can reduce to 1kb to make the game save files a lot more)

I believe you can still save them. You just will have all the UI stuff in the pic. Pretty sure all the Scroll lock key does is remove it. IF I'm wrong, you can download a free program called ditto. It hold all copies you make and you can then screen shot yourself till your blue in the face then run through it and do w/e you want. Otherwise buy a new KB or maybe some1 else will have a better solution. Good Luck!

Edit: I love this idea simply for players who have multiple drives and don't want there screenies on the OS drive.

C:\<user name>\Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV\screenshots <--is the default

I'm fine with it being in the FINAL FANTASY XIV folder, honestly. It's easy to get to. Though options are nice.

Take screenshots through Steam, much easier to upload and share with friends.

Do people really have problems finding Documents/My Games/Final Fantasy XIV?

Not at all; this is a useful option.

Personally, I prefer having all screenshots made going to one of my portable hard drives where I have tons more space.
