Hello all,
I have FRAPS version 2.5.1 and it's registered to me. I had a small problem while taking screenshots. Everytime I take a screenie in FS, when I look at the shot in the folder I have set for the pictures to be saved in, the pictures always have jaggies, even though my sim is perfectly jaggy-less. I don't get it. I use the .bmp option to save my screenies. Later I use Photoshop CS to crop out the Sound Off message...but the jaggies always remain...can any one help?
Regards,
Ashar

I don't know if you have sorted this out yet but try changing to uncompressed jpg's.

I use either PSP Pro7 or FRAPS but save as JPG, also, using FRAPS, you can set it to take a capture every 1 - whatever seconds.

PSP capture is easy to set up, if you do a search on here with my name (ubntfp) all the screenies are done with either FRAPS or PSP.

Hope this is helpfull, if not.....sorry

I have not...I simply use the Prntscrn button...and then Alt-Tab to Photoshop CS then save it thru there...works for me Wink
