Can anyone tell me how to make screen shots from GPL? I've seen shots of both action and the newspaper so I know it's possible but I can't reproduce. I've tried PrintScrn and Alt-PrintScrn with no success. I just get a black frame. Ideas appreciated. Thanks, Mark

What rasterizer are you using? The Alt-PrintScreen and PrintScreen methods will work for the Software, Rendition, and 3dfx rasterizers. However for the OpenGL rasterizer you'll need to use a 3rd party screen capture program. I'd recommend HyperSnap-DX: http://www.hyperionics.com/ Eric
I use the OGL rasterizer and I have done a screen dump of the newspaper clipping at the end of the race. I just hit printscreen when the paper was up, then left the game, pasted the image into Word and printed it out. It was fine. Phil
