I wish to include screen shots with a course upload but I seem to have lost the knack of taking them. The print screen button when in the game only produces a desktop shot. I am running Windows 7 Pro if that makes a difference. A idiot proof step by step guide would be welcome.

The way we are playing here you might want to throw the clubs in the lake. If you throw the clubs in the lake, you might miss the lake.

Hiya Tee,
Yes it can be a pain to take screenshots in Win7. However there is a great 3th party program Fraps that can help you, see link below:

Gunpower, I d/l FRAPS and left it open in the task tray. Unfortunately when hit the hotkey (F10) to save a screenshot, nothing appears in the screenshot folder as it said it would. The help from FRAPS is not good with no FAQs or problem solving scenarios. It assumes everything would run perfectly. Is there anyone who can help out here with an idoit proof guide as to how I set FRAPS up to do as it supposed to?

Hiya Tee it works on win7 home for me. ( not sure about win7 pro ) Important: it only works in games, when you try to take a screenshot for example from your desktop then it will not work. You have to try to take a screenshot from TW08 game:
Install Fraps.....run Fraps...and minimize Fraps to desktop. After that start TW08....and Hit Key: F10 Screenshot will be saved in: C:\Fraps\Screenshots |

Gunpower,
I opened FRAPS, started a TW08 game. I could see FRAPS was working as the fps was showing in yellow top left of screen. Hit F10 as required, went to C:\FRAPS\screenshots folder which was empty!!!
Done that a number of times, no results I'm afraid.

I am using Windows 7 Pro and it worked OK for me following Pats post. Try uninstall and re-install of fraps. |

Thanks Jim you have come to the rescue again. I uninstalled FRAPS, re-installed and it works fine now. I haven't got a clue as to why the previous installation did not work. I will be able to post pics of uploaded courses now.

Good news you got it working, Fraps saves the pics as bitmap ( BMP ). But you will have to upload the pics as jpeg or jpg. So open the pics with Paint, and save the pics as JPEG or JPG. Paint is integrated in Win7: On desktop click: Start....All programs.....Accessories Inside you should find Paint. |
