Ive searched about and i cant find anything on this, (maybe its because of the new forum setup), but im having trouble taking screenshots whilst playing tony hawks. It just takes shots of the menu rather than the game. I know its definitely been addressed before but its beginnin to bug me now :frown: so does anyone know of a way to solve the problem?

Cheers SAbz

I think it is like the same thing when you try to capture a screenshot froma movie on windows media player (on PC). Because when you do, it onlycaptures a black and blank screen, no movie. It can be because, the screenshot applcation is for desktop capturing, and the game is not working on your desktop, it is a new app, other than the desktop app of the o/s.

try changing the screenshot buttons, if you are using a menu button to take the screen shot, it might call up the menu before you even get a chance. Just a thought though.
