Well, my screenshots also lookslike the same. I don't know why it is so, but it's still how it goes. Most of people are using Steam's own screenshots by pressing F12 but I can't because it doesn't work on my laptop.

Whoa. That's funky. Maybe try FRAPS instead? I really haven't a clue as to what's corrupting them. :(

ok...alright.... apparently its my resolution?
i guess had lowered it the day the screenshots were working


my laptops native resolution is 1366x768, which is what i am playing the game at

screenshots work at 1360x768 (not ideal), and at 1280x720
they do not work at 1366x768........

vsync - which i thought mightve been involved in the problem - makes no difference, on or off


so, what do you make of that?
