Does anyone know what would be causing screenshots not to save properly? This started happening to me recently and it is interfering in gathering testing data on some projects I am working on.

Obvious things first:

 

Could it be a disk space issue? Or fragmentation? Bad sector on hard drive? Maybe run chkdsk and see if anything turns up.

 

Also, make sure the path in the Options.ini file is correct. Try changing the image format or a different folder and see if that helps.

Karl that has happened to me too I think it has to do with a mod we installed? I had to abandon the Install that was giving issues i just transferred the objects sounds and terrain folders to the new install that seemed to clear it up....

WBS, the screenshots are saving to the correct place on the hard-drive, just not saving any data. As for the drive it is the newest drive on my computer and has more than 450 Gigs of free space free. I might try scandisk if nothing else works.

Bruce, did it start up within the last couple of months?

to tell you the truth its been a while since i have had the problem I used to Run SF2 E  all modded up then it went wonkie it was after SF2 NA  was released so now i just run in that exe  but SF2 E went goofy on me a few times so I'd just rename the offending Modd SF-2e folder and run the EXE clean and transfer the  objects sounds and terrain to the newly created SF2-E   again I dont know if SF2 NA will go funky or what caused it in the first place just playin ah waitin game :-)
