FRAPS kills my game

Post » Tue Jan 27, 2015 9:54 am

I broke my back trying to find the mod that causes CTD's and freezes in Skyrim (heavily moded).

It turnes out that it 'never' happens since i'm not using FRAPS.

It svcks because it showed me fps and it was easy to take screenshots (i do that alot).

What do i do now?

To take a screenshots in Skyrim, there are two ways:

To take a screenshot, all you need to do is press the printscreen button (PrtScr). When you take the screenshot, you'll notice a short, one second pause in the game.

This will save your screenshot in your game directory. It should be located in: [ Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim\ folder ], which should be in C:\Program Files\ or C:\Program Files (x86)\ unless you have installed Steam to a different directory.

If it doesn't work, try checking Users/(username)/My Documents/My Games/Skyrim [ skyrim.ini ] file and make sure, bAllowscreenshot function is set to 1 instead of 0.

-----------------

Also you an take screenshots and save them to your Steam screenshot manager by pressing the F12 button.

This only works if you have the Steam community overlay enabled. !!!

When you take the picture, Steam will inform you with a small pop-up and sound.

------------------

As for the FPS counter, you can try this: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/24239/?(the simplest counter you can get. lol)

Heavily modded? Are you using ENB series? That comes with a FPS counter. For the Screenshots just use Steam.

I'll use the printScreen for shots (scenary) and a mod FPS Counter
