MrEvo Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Hello guys, well i wanted to take some in game screenshot of Fallout 3. Well i have used the standard "Prt Scr" and the file was saved ok, but when i open them that look horrible. Here is what i mean http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/5997/testxd.th.jpg Any idea was they are turning out like this. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimboUK Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I've never seen anything like that before, try using FRAPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEvo Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 Thanks mate, i will try that out now. I have a GeForce GTX 295 1792MB GDDR3 video card and running the game in 1366x768 resolution on my widescreen monitor. So i am not sure if thats the problem, anyway i will try that program and see if that helps. Thanks again mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overload1977 Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 its like the lead from your pc to you monitor is not plugged in all the way weird..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEvo Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 Sweet, that FRAPS program worked like a treat. I thought that at first, i checked the connections to make sure they were sound. Its strange that it only does that when i set any game at the 1366x768. Thanks again guys, nice one :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimboUK Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Very weird, I've never seen anything like that before. Might try that resolution at some point and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baelkin Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 While the problem has been resolved, I'd try running the game at a different resolution just to check if it happens in different resolutions as well. The system might be having trouble generating the proper screendump output at that resolution for whatever reason and it's nice to know whether it's just an anomaly or something that happens consistently (Maybe try taking a screenshot in a different game as well just to check if it's Fallout 3 that's acting up).
