    Default Screenshot problem

    I'm using Vista on my laptop, and have got problems in taking screens.

    When I hit prtsc, it takes a shot of my main pc background, instead of the game. I'm only having this with RTW, not with other games.

    Anyone knows a solution?

    Have you tried disabling Anti-aliasing?

    Atm I'm using 'Howie's quick screen capturing tool', which works in all cases, except with RTW...

    What is anti-aliasing??

    Anti-aliasing is on the graphics settings.

    Best to have it disabled & let your graphics card sort it out rather than slow the game by asking it to do it 'in-house' so to speak.

    Another vote for FRAPS here BTW.
    Once it is installed & running just hit F10 & Robert's your Mother's Brother.

    Would that be the 'AA-quality' in the RTR-launcher? It's on High now.

    Yes, that's it. Try turning it off. (None)

    Guys, it works! I just saw the option 'capture active window', and together with turning AA off, I've finally got some pics for my AAR

    Thanks for all help!

    If you have Vista the easiest way to stop taking screens of your desktop is to use the -ne (windowed mode) shortcut switch.
