If you're running vista and have installed to program files (bad idea) then you'll either have to change the permissions on the SHIII folder or run the game as admin to have the screen shots save. I had this problem when I first tried taking some shots, I was using the right commands but the shots didn't save as the game didn't have permission to alter the contents of its own folder!

Vista at times seriously dampens my battery!

But it didn't work, I don't get any screenshots
I didn't have a clue

Hi Ford Prefect

I have no Vista , only XP for me.
I don't understand nothing . I am using Kegetys resolution fix

[Torplexed]

Trying looking for BMP files, not TGAs.

[StarLion45]

thanks for the replys , but it didn't help
I couldn't find those Bmp files in main directory,
I don't understand this

[Ford Prefect]

hmmmmm, check the installation directory isn't protected, it may be the game doesn't have permission to save the files to there. XP may be doing a vista to you....

Err... try clrt f 11... I couldnt remember if it was shift or ctrl...

Maybe you should use fn+ctrl+F11, I am playing on a MacBook 15" Pro with Windows XP installed. The images are in the SH3 folder and are bmp.

Or use fraps.

or try ctrl + prt/scrn

If you do get the .tga files you need some picture viewer to open them, as IrfanWiew.
At least Vista does not recognise .tga´s, I don´t remember if XP did, I´m getting old and only remeber what I use at the moment
