The problem with the Ctrl+F11 command and the TGA file is that the end result is half a picture. The top half looks like a checker board while the bottom half is the correct picture. I wish I had a picture I could post to explain this better.

I'm not sure if there is a work around with this and I'm not that good with PhotoShop.

I have YC3 boot with Windows, so it's always in my system-tray.
L-click on it once, to bring up the window.
On the left, select the "all formats" option...this will show all your copy (text, pictures, urls) in the History-section.

To edit your screenshot, select the bmp, and hit Ctrl+L.
This will load it into your preferred image-viewer - like Irfan View.

I run SH3/GWX at 1024x768, though...might be the difference.
I particularly like YC3's "shoot"-option...great for pasting text and urls in a row.

I have the program minimised in the tray and while playing SH3 I'm pressing the PrtScn key to take captures and yet when I return to the YC program there is no evidence of any captures:cry:

Is there something I'm missing? Do I need to set the program up or is there another button to use for taking screen captures?

You could try GrabClipSave. It sits in the system tray an monitors your clipboard, saving your clips to a folder of your choice as .bmp, .jpg or .png files. Last version is 1.4.0.35, as far as I know. Lots of options.

This is getting very annoying - so much so I'm tempted to stuff the hi res fix altogether.:down:

Hmm, yes I get the same, tried nonags.com and download.com. It´s a pitty, I´ve used it for years and the only game it has not worked with for me is Colin 5. But there Fraps works fine. I have the exe file, 890 kb...:hmm:

I'm sorry, Goose.:-?
It should work. It works in most of my games...the only exception I have, is Oblivion, but I use FRAPS for that.
So I think it's the high-res fix you're using.
Anyway, just try YC3 in other applications (including ordinary desktop work), and you'll find it very useful.

No worries, thanks for the help anyway - maybe one day we will be able to have the best of both worlds.

Apologize for bumping the old thread,
as stated by users fraps and fix resolution dont match together.
I removed my fix resolution with jsgme, and still im unable to record videos with fraps.
I believe there is still a missing file I forgot to delete, or the "fix resolution" have afftected one or more stock files.
Any of you have solved this kind of issue before? I just dont want to reinstall SH3, important files are in my main folder and i dont want to lose them.

Ah nvm i solved it.
Fraps will only run if: you first run sh3 then after you run fraps.
Sry for the trouble if somebody was looking to help me.
