[slydog43]

Can you please add the feature to capture playfield and backbox pictures. Thanks really going great so far.

Playfield is already done a while ago. I am working on backglass

Screenshots (pressing S) appear totally black. Same as pressing Print Screen in FP.

Yeah, it won't capture directx apps on some versions of windows. Not much I can do about that.

Should the playfield screenshot be saved automatically to the media folder for the table (like with Hyperpin)?

I have tried pressing the screenshot key (mapped to "O" on my cab) but I don't get any screenshots (with VP tables). Is there some sound or sign in pinballX to know that the screenshot has been taken (like the shutter sound with directB2S screenshots)? Right now I don't know if the screenshot is triggering at all.

Not a big deal (everything else is working real nice!) but would be great to get this working. Using Win7 64bit with GTX580 and latest drivers.

Not at my Pincab, but did you run Settings.exe and set the Screenshot key to O? I think it is defaulted to S.

It should create a separate folder just so you know.

OK. I guess I missed that then. I will check it out.

Maybe as a future feature it could work like in hyperpin that it automatically creates the file to the media folder with the correct description name. So when you exit the table the image is already in place.

Thanks!

Yes , mentioned this ages ago. I haven't been using the feature because I can't be bothered to go in and move it

Hi. I was wondering if there had been any work a rounds found for this problem? I get black screens when capturing pf or bg in pinball x, using win7, I think home edition, 64 bit. I am trying to capture mame on my pf (using mamlayplus launched through pinball x). The reason I ask is that one of the above posts mentioned black screens using print screen in fp but I can take screen shots in BAM. Not sure if BAM found a work around for fp...

The cabinets and bezels look so good using Mamlayplus that I would love to be able to screen grab them for use in pinball x If possible.
