(http://i.imgur.com/o5cEFao.jpg) it does wierd
the screen wont show up nice i dont know why
but its glitched
-
It glitched?
It's a very nice picture of the sun, but I don't see any fighters or capital ships.
-
Yeach thats stupid glitch
How to fix it or can you fix it
-
Can you tell me how you are taking the screenshot?
-
Ive take it by pressing print screen and it adds the .tga fkles im converted it but its no ships nothing to show
-
Your mission may be devoid of ships. Or you are heading away from them if placed.
-
I did take screens while cutscene
So while i at ships battle but it doesnt show up you know how to fix it
-
I don't know, woutersmits.
-
What lands in a .tga file should be exactly the same as what you're seeing on your screen when you press PrintScreen. So... It isn't the case? That's strange.
Maybe you look for the screenshots in a wrong location? Older FSO builds placed screenshots into 'screenshots' folder in the main game directory, but newer ones place them somewhere in AppData/Roaming/HardLightProductions/Freespace Open. Maybe check there?
-
Ive checked there
No working
-
I am moving this to the support forum.
Are you taking many screenshots? Make sure you aren't looking at the wrong image file.
-
Yeach i did
-
Is there a sun lighting the ships?
-
No jothing on screens only empty
-
But there are ships but if i make an screen its emty
-
I am absolutely puzzled. Perhaps a log could provide some info for anyone who can help. (Please post your fs2_open.log file. Instructions on how to do this can be found in this post.)
-
Wait, can you see the ships glowpoints (blinking lights) but not the ships? I've seen that happen before.
-
no but i see the normal ships ingame but if i make screen it doesnt show ships
-
no but i see the normal ships ingame but if i make screen it doesnt show ships
Do the ships disappear as the screenshot is taken, or does it look like a successful screenshot, except when you view the file, it is not?
-
Yes if take screenshot it disapeared on screenshot
-
Reminds me of the old Polaroid cameras, if you didn't wait for the shot to develop. I'm guessing the problem is entirely different however. :warp:
-
It could be some coding, perhaps?
-
We need an fs2 open log to try to narrow down the issue. (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=56279.msg1180359#msg1180359)
Also, which FSO version are you using and does the problem still occur with any other FSO version?
Do you have any mod warnings that show up when you run a debug build?
-
3.7.5 Nightly build. No, on my machine, but Woutersmits does.
-
Woustersmits has mod warnings or he runs into the same issue running another version of FSO?
-
Yeach y our are correct but only on screens it wont show ships kngame well thats disaster i cant help goober5000he needs screens to help him out
-
Woutersmits says only on screenshots it won't show ships on the game and that's a problem.
