AcE Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Evenbalance's Statement on black pbss Black screenshots will happen if the videocard drivers are old, when the game is not the active application, or on some Operating System/videocard/driver combinations. Also, screenshot detour hacks could cause these black screenshots. In summary, black screenshots might not be caused by cheats or hacks but checking all the videocard drivers and/or possibly directx drivers is advisable.

KnifeNinja Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 You can ask him to update his video drivers and direct x. Some combinations of cards/operating systems just never work though. For instance, I'm using Vista 32 and an 8800GTS. No matter what I do, I return black screens. I can't help it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcE Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 You can ask them to upgrade/downgrade his/her gfx/os drivers, turn off AA, but fact is.. you probably won't get it fixed. If I were you I wouldn't worry about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
