Default Screenshots garbled

Hi, as of couple weeks ago I notice my RO screenshots are garbled ie only about 25% of the screen area is captured and it seems to be interlaced with the other 25%, making it barely recognizable. Around 50% of the screen (lower half) is not captured at all. The game works fine.

Now this happened either after I installed new drivers for my video card, or after the latest RO update, or something else. I have nVidia 7600 GT, drivers are 91.47.

I am sorry I cannot provide more data for troubleshooting, is anyone else having this problem? Since RO does not have some sort of master server stats, I use screenshots to remember the most pleasant games I participated in ) I would install new drivers if someone can confirm it would solve the problem.

If you have anti aliasing and stuff turned on, screen shots maybe corrupt.

Some use Fraps for taking screen-shots.

I turned AA etc off.

I've also been getting some corruption, although a great deall less than what Oleg described - just a garbley (is that a word ) line about 20 pixels high, running the width of screen.

I didn't give it much thought, since I'm overclocking the poor GFX bastard quite severely, but since it's been brought up...

Anti-Aliasing is the problem.

www.fraps.com or other external ones work in RO with AA.

Those awnswers are correct , there is nothing wrong with your system , card or drivers , I experianced the same thing , after updating drivers , the screenshot being interlaced , is quite common & from the way it was explained to me , it is because your vid card & drivers are exceeding the capability of the game engines screenshot function , thus resulting in interlaced screenshots , you can either get whatever gaphics program you like to deinterlace them afterwords , or just get a small program called fraps & run it in your system tray it will take perfect screenshots for you & is extremely light on resources
