GPL Screenshot problem

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 -- mail replies to Uwe at schuerkamp dot de ( yahoo address is spambox) Uwe Schuerkamp //////////////////////////// http://www.schuerkamp.de/ Herford, Germany \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ (52.0N/8.5E) GPG Fingerprint: 2E 13 20 22 9A 3F 63 7F 67 6F E9 B1 A8 36 A4 61

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. Malc.
