LucentBeam Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 At first, when I would do Print Screen, it would just take an all black image. For a brief couple of days, it randomly started working. Since that, it's so dodgy that for something like every 20 attempts, only 1 will actually take a picture. Any ideas on the problem? It's annoying me because I've missed some great cutscene moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knockerz Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 It works fine on normal activities, but doesn't really work with cutscenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dezzi Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I've found that it really only works, during cut-scenes, when you have the UI hidden with ctrl + z. If the UI is visible, the screenshot won't take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During cut-scenes? I've yet to have a screenshot actually take during a cut-scene if the UI is visible. I know others have gotten it to work, but it simply doesn't work for me.

GianSingir Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I've taken many screen shots during cutscenes, and never had one not take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucentBeam Posted February 11, 2012 Author Share Posted February 11, 2012 (edited) During cut-scenes? I've yet to have a screenshot actually take during a cut-scene if the UI is visible. I know others have gotten it to work, but it simply doesn't work for me. It has worked for me in the past until everything suddenly stopped working altogether. I didn't change any setting so I am just stumped. Also... what I did to get it to even start to take the black screens in the first place was to manually unmap and remap the print screen button in game, but now even repeating that process won't make it do anything.

Falensawino Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) I don't get black screens but I do get faulty key presses. Like I press the button but no screenshot is saved to my documents. It's there on the clipboard if I want to open MSpaint and paste it, but not saved automatically in my documents/swtor/screenshots Even when I mash my print screen button 20 times, it may only register once and When it finally does work, there also appears to be some delay before you can take the next screenshot.
