No screenshots taken

[Malimbor Marrane]

Today I wanted to take some pictures from myself for making a signature, so I positioned myself against a wall and attempted to make a screenshot by using "/screenshot nogui". The system chat told me the screenshot was succesfully created, but when I check my Planeshift folder, no folder "screenshots" was created, nor was the screenshot itself. I've ran some tests by using "/screenshot" instead and by creating a folder named "screenshots" manually, but nothing seems to work. When I check the errorlog, I see the following error (example, there are some more errors logged) :

Fri Aug 22 11:38:59 2008, Stat request failed because CelClient not ready for 24071
These are the results from a diagnostic test (shortened, only system and display information) :

Just downloaded latest NVidia drivers, also ran updater. I'm playing the game in 1280x1024, grafical quality all maxed out, "keep maps loaded" checked. Searching the forums didn't provide a solution yet

I hope this is enough information to help me out or fix this problem.

...but when I check my Planeshift folder, no folder "screenshots" was created, ..

check : C:\Documents and Settings\User_name\Application Data\PlaneShift
Application Data is a hidden folder. your screenshots, logs and all shortcuts (etc.) are saved there ;o

[Malimbor Marrane]

Nope, not their either

[Caarrie]

if you run psclient from console it will show you where your userfiles are stored it should look something like

Code: [Select]

Your configuration files are in... /home/<yourusernamehere>/.PlaneShift   
but it will be a windoze path and not linux like mine.

I just reinstalled PS and tried it again, with succes. I don't know what was wrong, but after the reinstall and re-update, it worked.

Thanks for your replies, you may now enjoy my signature =)
