Win 8, full screen: only black screenshots

Win 8, full screen: only black screenshots
December 28, 2012 07:23PM
Hi,

i get only black screenshots. Is this a known bug with windows 8 while playing in full screen?
In win8 i can't "Disable Desktop Composition" in the properties as your guide describes.

Any help available?

Bye,
Mere

In window-mode it works fine. Only fullscreen make problems.

Yeah it sucks. Window mode only goes up to 1680 resolution and full screen produces black screenshots and also kills the autotracking.
There is no way to fix it with windows 8 because you cannot disable the desktop composition.
