Cannot Take Screenshots

Post » Wed Aug 26, 2009 1:33 am

For whatever reason, I cant take screenshots at all. I do exactly what is told to me as far as ini file changes. And yet it does nothing. Im on Vista and for whatever reason, the game installed two or three versions of the INI in different places. Changing them all does nothing, but I can change just one of them to allow background keyboard and that works just fine (keyboard volume controls)

Anyone know what can be done about this? It just continually gives the same error, telling me to modify the ini file. It always worked before...Im running the most up to date version, including the thigns like the newest Morrowind Code Patch.

Are you using MGE? It disables the usual method of screenshots, and instead you have to set-up a macro in MGE to take a screenie. (you can bind it to any key that you like)

Not sure why you have multiple ini files, but the one in the main Morrowind folder is the one that will alter the game.
With Vista, you have to make sure you have Admin permission to alter the file, or it will be ignored.

Ah, okay. Yes, I am using the graphic extender. Thank you much! :)
