GPL Screenshot problem

by Uwe hoover Schuerkam » Thu, 02 Jan 2003 22:51:38

Hi folks,

I have a problem trying to create screenshots in GPL. Upon
exiting GPL, I get the GPLSSXX.pbf files, but they're all
empty, 0 bytes in size.

Any idea what could be causing this? The folder is not write
protected, using loss98SE.

cheers,

uwe

The built in screen grab function only works in Glide (or rendition). If
you're using OpenGL or d3d you need to use a 3rd party utility instead.

Also, when the racesimcentral forum is back on, go look in the GPL
movies and screenshots forum for a sticky post on how to take screenshots.
