Hi Dev's,

There seems to be an issue with screenshots, was testing them on the main page and allI get is a black image.

Cheers

What method were you using to take them? I looked for a screenshot key bind but couldn't see one so used FRAPS which worked fine. Another option is to use the print screen button but that doesn't always work with every app or game.

Cheers,

Try the print screen key.

Just go out of full screen and take a screenshot in windowed mode, it will work.

I'd love a built-in screenshot button, but that can wait.

Installed Fraps because I can finally take screenshots without risking NDA hazards, and I need to show TV Mech to the world.

Print Screen doesn't appear to work unless you're in windowed mode, in fullscreen it just gives a black page as mentioned above. Kinda annoying when attempting to take an image for a bug report and then having to change all the settings by which point some occassional bugs aren't appearing.

Just download and use FRAPS, it's lite free version allows you to take all the screenshots you want with a press of whatever button you specify as well as displaying your FPS in whatever corner you want. You only need to buy the full version for capturing video and using advanced options / features.
