Fraps not taking screenshots every time?? Any one else?

[Chad711]

I have been taking some screenshots today of GTA IV. I actually took some really good ones that I was looking forward to posting only to find out they didn't take!

It seems I have to reassign the hotkey for screenies every so often or it doesn't work after awhile.

Any ideas?

EDIT: does any one know the key in GTA IV to take screenshots?

use print screen then put it in paint and upload to imageshack, thats what i usually do.

but then I have to exit out on each screen to do that. I want to take multiple ones and not have to back out of game to do it

no but just go into your controls and look yourself...

read the game manual?

I can't recall any PC game that stated how to take a screen shot in the manual for the game?

Any way, if any one knows the hotkey please let me know.

alot of games come have a controls secion in the manual or include a keymap or something, u could at least look.

You could use xfire. That's what I use most of the time, unless it's a source engine game (TF2, half-life) then I just F5 it. The one nice thing about xfire is you can upload them real quick on the internet.
