Can't make any screenshots

Kapitän Waldherr · 09-10-12, 02:13 AM

Greets,

I have a problem with producing any screenshots.

After a night of commanding I wanted to take a look at the screenshots I took.
Now it seems that they"re all unable to be opened.
It states the pics are damaged or corrupted.
Does anybody know what could or is the problem.

I posted my question on U-boat adons forum but got no reply.
I was hopping to reach some more eyes trough this forum.
In order to find a solution to my problem

ANY help on this problem is very appreciated

Sorry for my broken english,
it will hopefully improve by spending more time on subsim

If all else fails, you could always use a program like FRAPS to take your screenshots.

Thanks a lot, will try it with fraps

Will surely let you know if it works.
Finally I can start taking some screenshots.

Thank you a lot

Gran salute for Dowly

Shouldn't be any reason why it wouldn't work. Just download and install the free
version, run it, check the hotkey for screenshots and once you start playing,
leave FRAPS running on the background.

...really nice,

It's even possible to record, a movie will surely capture the action.
Altough being able to take pictures is already a world of difference to me.
Thanks again.

Again, a full "manshaft" salute

...for one of the few, if not the only one who toke notice to my questions

Glad it helped

And yea, FRAPS is capable of recording video as well. The free version is limited
(the last I heard) to 30 second clips and it has the www.fraps.com watermark
on top of the vid.

30€ for the full version really isn't that bad, if you want to record with more ease.

Good hunting!
