Problems with screenshots

[Iron-Haggis]

I have no idea why but I am unable to get any screenshots from Cricket 2004. I know how it is suppose to be done and have taken screenshots from other games. But for some unknown reason Cricket 2004 won't let me do it. I was hoping if anyone could help me with this and since screenshots are needed by the rules, if nothing can be done if there could be alternative solutions to this.

Download FRAPS 1.9 D from www.fraps.com. "Print Screen" doesn't work in Cricket 2004 for sum reason

Yes fraps will make it work, it puts the screenshots into a folder for you and you can access them from there, the screenshots will be saved as bitmap though so you have to change them to JPEG before you upload them.

Thanks for that guys.

I've downloaded Fraps, followed the instructions and everything and I still can't get any screenshots, it is really frustrating me. I have no idea what I am doing wrong.

Make your one exactly the same as mine:

Then Press F10 to take screenshots. They'll end up in the FRAPS folder as .bmp files OK

I have no idea, but it doesn't work. I had my settings exactly the same as what you had. Still it doesn't take any screenshots. I tried it with other games and it won't take screenshots of them either. I have no idea what retarded thing I'm doing that won't allow it to take them, but it won't.

Check it's exactly the same. Load up Cricket 2004. And see if there is some numbers in the bottom right hand corner. If there is press F10, then goto the folder when you installed FRAPS to. There should be a .bmp file in there.

I decided to download and try 1.9A and then it worked perfectly, but 1.9D didn't work at all. Well I've got it working now. Thanks a lot for the help squiz.
