Yep! if you took these screenies in fullscreen mode they are much better than the one with FSScreen program I use.

In any case you forgot to tell us the name of the program.
Don't know what WB is using but Hypersnap works fine in Full Screen Mode. At least it does for me.

Is there any special option to set?
I started the Hypersnap, then the game in full screen, hit Ctrl+shift+f but instead of the main page game it took a screenshot of my desktop.

I'm certainly doing something wrong, can you spare some time and post a lil help for me, and a fast reference for the other users?

Thanks in advance!

Be sure your scroll lock and your num lock are turned off, Double D.

Yes, Hypersnap is exactly what I use.

Also, make sure all folders are closed except Hypersnap.

1. Find the screenshot in the game you want. Minimize the game if you can.
2. Open Hypersnap.
3. Open the game again. Press scroll lock.
4. Open up the Hypersnap and crop edit as you wish.

If that is complicated, then open Hypersnap first. Then get your game file where you want it. Then press scroll lock then open Hypersnap and prepare your pic.

Just so we are all clear here.... were these screen shots taken with Hypersnap done while the game was running full screen or windowed mode??

Default Re: Screen Shots - What I Use

The way I do it is the following:

!. I close all programs and start hypersnap. I minimize it but keep it open. Besure that scroll lock is off and num lock is off. If you use ICQ, you must also shut it down. It interferes with Hypersnap.

2. I start the game and depending when amd where I want to take the screen shot, I pause the game and then I minimize it, by pressing the scroll lock button. You can also put it in windowed mode too. THat is so you can see Hypersnap and the picture you have taken.

3. I then maximize Hypersnap and look at my picture. If I like it, I crop or make whatever changes I wish and then save it as a jpg file.

4. If I intend to take more, I keep hypersnap open and follow the same process.

This works best for me, Don.

Ah, now I understand the question Don was asking. Did I take a picture of the entire map? No, it won't quite fit, unless I use a smaller map setting. I haven't tested but I think it would have to be around 50x50 to get the entire map in one shot, reducing it of course to a smaller zoom level.

No Bill. I was asking you if you were running the GAME in full screen mode or windowed mode when you took the screen shot.

WinSPMBT can run as a fullscreen application or windowed application. The default mode is fullscreen when you start up the game from GameOptions but you can select it to run as a windowed application as well.

We had only been able to get screen shots in windowed mode before this. I was asking you to confirm that these shots were taken while the game was running in full screen mode

mmm, what's the fuss about ? Running the game in windowed mode PrtScrn key works quite well for me... Maybe you're all talking about full-screen mode in high res (that I don't have with the free version) ?
