Feltorn Von Dentai Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 UPDATE: Managed to fix it! It was a permissions error all along (bloody Windows 7!) and I managed to work around it... eventually. Thanks for your help everyone, mods, feel free to lock this.
XaiXo Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 Something similar happened to me, though when it did, screenshots just stopped working entirely.
Feltorn Von Dentai Posted April 28, 2010 Author Posted April 28, 2010 When I press prntscreen it tells me the screenshots save. Just can't find where...
rausheim Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 You'll find them in the Fallout 3 folder. Location: C:\\Programfiles\\Steam\\steamapps\common\fallout3Location2: C:\\Programfiles\\Betehsda\Fallout3 (this I'm not sure of since i use steam version) And for other stuff, try first: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Where+do+Fallout+3+screenshots+go :-) Edit: ahh, *censored*, that's what happens when you've been up for 35 hours. Did not see the entire post. Did you try to search for Fallout (3) in windows search? Maybe the folder is a complete different one than last time?

Looked in every folder named "Fallout" or "Fallout 3". One of them DID have a screenshots folder, but it contained nothing. Screenshots taken after finding that file didn't save there either.
rausheim Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Fallout 3 uses a very stupid way of saving those screenshots. If you right click on a Fallout 3 shortway (the one you use) you can check properties etc and see where this installment actually is. It will not be in a screenshotsfolder but where the fallout.exe is, datafolder etc. What kind of OS do you use?
overload1977 Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 just seach your pc for files called ScreenShot easy.......... Sometime fallout 3 saves your pics in Documents also look in pictures folder and other places like that, if you find none are you pressing the right button ? also look in yout fallout 3 ini to see if screenshot are enabled.
tcunni89 Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 My screenshots save to: C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Fallout 3(The default installation directory) They save as bmp... Open up Search, and look for "ScreenShot"
rausheim Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 I would actually think this may be a permission issue with UAC or something.
