Retribution Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 I can't get FRAPS or Xfire to work. Does anyone know any good ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illiad86 Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 best ones you'll get are those, why won't they work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ub3rman123 Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 You could try editing the Oblivion.ini file. Open it and change BallowScreenshots to 1. If that doesn't work, I haven't got a clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illiad86 Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 ya can't have AA on if you do that...poo to no AA :tongue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retribution Posted June 16, 2010 Author Share Posted June 16, 2010 Well, Fraps only seems to work in windowed mode, even for the FPS counter and Xfire won't take screenshots. I tried pressing Scroll Lock+S like it said, but it doesn't do anything. Fraps used to work, I don't know why it doesn't now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilneko Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Enabling screenshots in Oblivion disables AA? Really? I guess I never noticed. :sweat: Anyway, you might try FastStone Capture, I think that's what I used to take a couple of Saints Row 2 screenshots, so it should work.

Illiad86 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 yeah and it makes huge bitmaps...ya just gonna have to convert it to a jpeg. I save all mine in PNG format because it's higher quality and less compressed. Bitmaps are not compressed, hence the huge file size...PNG looks better than bitmap to me though. Hum, have you tried re-installing both? I've never used X-fire, only used Fraps and never had such a problem :sad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retribution Posted June 17, 2010 Author Share Posted June 17, 2010 Well, Fast Stone Capture didn't work when I had a game up, only when I was on the desktop and stuff like that. Fraps works fine for windowed, or for monitoring my aero desktop. I have fully deleted and reinstalled Fraps, but it still won't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retribution Posted June 17, 2010 Author Share Posted June 17, 2010 Actually, the only thing it doesn't work on I believe is Oblivion, whether it's windowed or not. I should have tested more. If I could find a way to stop Oblivion from only taking 6 screenshots, then overlapping them, then I would be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bitmaps are not compressed, hence the huge file size...PNG looks better than bitmap to me though....Sorry, but I have to disagree. Let me tell ya something: A good image maker always starts with a bmp, already by means of quality. First after a possible image editing the 32 bpp file gets converted, usually for uploading or storage on a medium - to jpg as a single image or to gif in the case of an animated image. http://www.abload.de/img/anne9hol.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
