Refusing to take screenshot

Is there any reason why PinballX would single out a table and refuse to take a screenshot of the playfield?

I've just done some tweaks to a couple of tables.... Atlantis and Twilight Zone. I needed new screenshots for the playfields and so fired up PinballX after removing the previous table images from the respective folder.

Atlantis takes screenshot fine when I press S. But Twilight Zone refuses... no matter how long I wait or how many times I try. Setting for each are the same in Game Manager. I'm confused :unsure:

Do you get a 'rescanning for artwork' or similar line in the PinballX  log after trying a Twilight Zone screen shot and exiting the table?

Can't think of a reason the screenshot would work for one table and fail for another, so probably best to attach your log.txt and pinballx.ini files anyway.

I've sorted out. It was my fault really. I like to get screenshots just as the table loads, even if it means no lights are lit yet. That way the table loads seamlessly into life. I just wasn't giving the table time to load fully, or for PinballX to be ready. If I waited a few more seconds for the light show to start then it worked fine. There's a point as it loads where there were no lights lit (yet) and I was trying to get that.
