Screenshots are blank.
 

Just yesterday I noticed that a lot of the working screenshots I had before had gone blank. I tried taking a screenshots online and they all come out blank.

I've tried different servers, restarting, making a new screenshot folder, but no luck. They always turn out like this. The beta client is doing the same.

The Level Editor's screenshots are fine though.

Any ideas?

Relevant Specs:

9600GT
Vista 64bit

These are what my screenshots end up like

It was working just fine the other day, I don't know if anything has changed since...

Well I took mines like last week and that's what they ended up like.

my screenshots turn out fine

I ran into someone on Graal (UN to be specific) that was having the same problem. He's also on Vista and has an 8800GT.

I've always had this problem since I started using Vista. Just use Prt Scr key instead.

I take screenshots very often when I play Graal and the pnt scr button would require me to open paint and copy paste it and whatnot. Too much work compared to alt + 2 => done.

It was working fine before? Tried fiddling around with Graal's window size, or tried taking a screenshot in fullscreen?

Speaking of print screen on Vista, any clues as to why my Prt Scr button does nothing?

It's the same for me. I'm unable to take screenshots aswell.

i have vista and it works fine for me..

Wow, fullscreen works but windowed mode doesn't.

No idea how to fix this.

Try OpenGL?

I took screenshots (Alt+2) no problem on Graal both windowed and full-screened.

My print screen button works too.

GeForce 8800GT
Windows XP 32bit

HELLO WINDOWS VISTA! >_<

Learn to comprehend what a thread is about.

He's confirming that it's a Vista issue.

Hm?

I seriously doubt that was his intentions.

Run Graal.exe with the -opengl command line parameter. Should work on Vista.

It does.

how do you do that? :O like where do you type "-opengl"

Right click on a, you know, I don't know the english term..."link" to Graal.exe, go to the path and add -opengl at the end.

"Shortcut" :p

It works with OpenGL mode but there seems to be problems with OpenGL and Graal...

Awesome ty guys g3d works for me now xD

o.o

Doesn't 3d require opengl tho :p?

Meh, *waits*

Yes, G3D uses OpenGL, thats probably the reason it didn't work for Galdor before, although Graal should switch automatically...oh well.

Hi Stefan.

The only thing else left to say is probably wait for the next version release.

According to Stefan, it should be here in week or so.

I have it already and it doesn't work. Hence:

Where can the beta client be found?

Nowhere. :)

Bug Stefan, but try to bug him politely ;)

Pfft, what makes you special?!
:pluffy: doesn't count either.

P.S. SEND IT TO ME

If you use the Windows Classic skin as opposed to the Aero one, the screenshots seem to work. Appears Graal and Aero are sworn enemies because I -think- it may also fix my laptop's jumpy (possibly frame-skipping?) problem.

Found the easiest solution. For those interested...

Go to your Graal folder
Right click Graal.exe
Click properties
Go to the compatibility tab
Check "disable desktop composition"
Click apply/ok

Fixed. This might also help with the slow jerky movements on Graal using Vista, haven't tested on my laptop yet.

prntsc works on vista you just may need to hit the fn button along with prntsc

i have a vista pc but i manage to change os and use winxp instead....

Is it me, or I have the same problem for video recording ?
I tried all formats, and also read the video by everything I had (VLC, RealPlayer, etc...) and....BLANK?!

Anyway, thanks Crono, screenshots work fine now =D
Rep++

I'm talking about alt + 2.

Well, early today when I tried taking a screen in Editor it didn't work, it was like 3 AM at the time so I didn't really care to post about it, I didn't even know there was a thread about this too. :P

Also, I have Windows XP not Vista
