Cpl Carrot<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Hypernap can be found at http://www.hyperionics.com/index.html ------------------------------------------- i was told voodoo card users had to do something to take screenshots besides just hitting print screen or command shift 3. the search engine sucked cause i only got 8 responses or timed out when i inputted voodoo and screenshots. being a happy nvidia user and voodoo virgin, i'd like to know, do you: o get a screen capture utility like hypersnap o turn off directdraw acceleration o something else?

Wolfe Posted August 3, 2001 Share Posted August 3, 2001 For Voodoo 3, 4, or 5, just hit Printscreen. For the Voodoo 1 or 2, you'd have to use Hypersnap. Though I never got Hypersnap to work with my old Voodoo 2. - Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juardis Posted August 3, 2001 Share Posted August 3, 2001 I have a V5, and I use hypersnap. I thought you had to use hypersnap in order to get the FSAA effects to show. Something about the way printscreen takes the image from a buffer in the vid card but in a V5 that buffer is prior to combining all the signals into the final glorious FSAA shot.

Darwin Posted August 3, 2001 Share Posted August 3, 2001 The glory of what hypersnap can do isn't even mentioned... With hypersnap you can take a buttload of screenshots automatically numbered sequentially and saved without overwriting previous screenshots. This allows your wannabe aartist more freedom and the opportunity to get more good screens. I highly reccomend it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchy Posted August 3, 2001 Share Posted August 3, 2001 I use a Voodoo 3 2000 and all I do his hit the print screen on my keyboard. I then open up may favorite graphic program, paste the picture, and do what I want with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm not sure that even Hypersnap captures the 22-bit filter now. IIRC, 3dfx changed the High Quality Filter on the V5 and none of the screenshot utils can now properly capture the image. But the filter isn't used when 4xFSAA is on anyway; 3dfx said they turned off the filter in the drivers when 4x is on because 4xFSAA accomplishes essentially the same thing color-wise.
