Kekk1 Posted July 28, 2001 Share Posted July 28, 2001 Why not use UOSU, you can capture unlimited numbers of screens, and they're saved in jpg. You can even set the jpg compression rate. Try it! Much easier than messing with Paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cpl Carrot Posted July 28, 2001 Share Posted July 28, 2001 If you have a Voodoo you need some extra utilities. Hypersnap I believe its called. If you don't then the above should work, maybe..... Rereading your replies up above (helps you know ) I believe you do have a Voodoo card and will need to get a program like HyperSnap (Google will find it). Make sure you toggle the 3D options and you should be away laughing. Try searching the tech help area for Voodoo related issues and you should come up with some good help. I'll pop back later to see how you're getting on. Edited because I can't read and for some strange reason I'm feeling helpful [ 07-28-2001: Message edited by: Cpl Carrot ] Edited cause now I can't spell. Teach me for getting up in the morning [ 07-28-2001: Message edited by: Cpl Carrot ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goober Posted July 30, 2001 Author Share Posted July 30, 2001 Cpl Carrot was right. I have a Voodoo II and cannot take pix using normal means eg: Print screen+paste in word doc. Have obtained Hypersnap and it works great. In fact pix look better than actual pix within game. Thanks Cpl Carrot for your advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpl Carrot Posted July 30, 2001 Share Posted July 30, 2001 The reason, for any interested, is because Voodoo is 3D only and you need to have a 2D card as well. Print Screen uses the primary video card (ie the 2D) hence the shot of your desktop or the loading 3D battlefield screen). Bye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
