Problem taking screenshot

Postby stuart1044 » Thu Jun 12, 2008 2:40 pm

Ok guys, something starnge is going on...

I use fscreen for my screenshots, easy to use just hit the print screen button and it saves them to a folder.  I can use it normally on the desktop etc, but as soon as i am in the sim and i have a flight, when i come to the folder and view the screenshots they are all just black screens, with an occasional square box of the shot!

Any ideas?

**also tried the capture screenshot within Irfanview and get the same result

Solved my problem by using fraps, with the screenshot facility on there.  Along with the options to remove the cursor and the frame rate  ;)
