Re: Is there a way to make pics of FP Tables for Maximus? (Workaround Found)

(1/2) > >>

BobA:
Just a short question.   I have future pinball working in Maximus Arcade but would like to get the tables to show when I am on the game selection screen.  Is there any source for the pics of these tables?

Thanks

Simply set a screen capture key in the preferences (Ctrl-P). Make sure you save the key configuration. Then while in the emulator, press the key you assigned and you will hear a camera sound. When you exit back to the front end you'll see the screenshot.

BobA:
Thanks DeLUSioNal I tried it but all it stores for the table is a blank screen.  That is what shows up instead of image not available in the display.  Any ideas?

BobA:
Update - I tried VPinball, Mame, PC Engine and they worked fine.   I am using the 9 key.

FPinball just produces a black screen when the capture key is pressed.  Only FP seems to be acting this way.

Tried it in W7 32 bit and 64 bit.

Edit:  Not solved but using FRAPS as a work around to produce the screen captures.

DeLuSioNal29:
So my educated guess is that the screenshot function is working but it's not saving properly to the folder.  Go to your preferences and check the setting that says "path to media" and change it to "long".  Then rescan media.  Try entering Pinball table and hitting the screenshot key.  Exit.  Let me know if that helps.

I checked my settings and here's what I have mine set to:
-  Running Windows XP 32 bit
-  Maximus Arcade ver 2.10
-  Future Pinball ver 1.9
-  In preferences --> emulator config tab --> Future Pinball --> Window State:  minimized -->  Path to Media:  long --> Command line:  /open %file /play /exit

Let me know what you find.
