ET Screenshots


(BBr|Mcrobrewer) #1

When I use the F11 key to take an ingame screen shot… The game saves a .jpg or .tga file… but when I open the SS it is completely dark totally black…

I am using a Radeon 9700 PRO videocard.

I know of at least 6 other people with the same problem… with various types of videocards…

Is this a known ‘bug’??? :???:

It’s an ATI drive bug afaik

Posted on the ATI/rage3d.com forums too

Any sceenshots taken with FSAA and(or) ansio turned on, are totally black in any games based on the Q3-engine :o

try Print Screen… works here :slight_smile:

I have a radeon 9700pro, and I can take screenshots just fine. I did update my drivers within the last month however. I run in 1600x1200 resolution with as much detail as I know how to turn on.

Here’s a screenshot I took in ET:

Still…
The screenshots turning black only happened here with the 3 latest Catalyst drivers, before that they were just fine.
