Crash whilst taking screenshot

Captain Nemo · 10-17-07, 09:39 AM

Anyone else had this? The sim froze and the sound was looping. Did an Alt Tab and a request box was asking if I wanted to take a sequence or something like that with an OK or cancel option. Hit enter and the dreaded SH3 has encountered a problem message appeared. First time the sim has crashed on me so I'm not overly concerned but lost the credit for a large merchant of 13k+ tons

. BTW I'm using SH3 with GWX and hit Ctrl F11 to take the screenshot. Did I do something wrong?

You might have accidently hit Ctrl+F12, which takes a series of screenshots and tries to call it video capture.:rotfl:

If the ingame capture is not working for you, try things like Fraps.

Thanks danlisa, you're right I probably accidentally caught F12 instead of F11 in my excitment to get a screenshot of the large merchant I hit going down. I'll make sure I don't do that again.
