I was just in windowed mode to see if the frame rate would change much...i fly in full screen mode now and the screen shot utility i use is called snapper.

February 1, 201313 yr Wow !! Two nice little utilities in one thread. The water textures look really good. Combine that with Opus and TNCM, and you have some really nice shots. Dennis Trawick Screen Shot Forum Rules
