hi =)  I've been trying to take screenshots in a game to show how great my voodoo 5500 makes it look, but it comes out terrible.  How do you guys take such good screenshots?  Mine look like they only capture one frame of the antialias routine, and that makes everything look jaggy and horrible (almost like an Nvidia card =).  Thanks!

Both the in-game screenshot and "Quick Screen Capture 2.1".  They both look pretty much the same, which is to say rather bad.  Looking at some of the awesome shots people here have posted makes me wonder what they are using!

you need to use the 3edfx screenshot key system ok

use this reg hack under winxp ok

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\3dfxvs\Device0\Glide]
"Localisation"="OpenGL/Glide"
"HTML Help"="hh ms-its:3dfx%20Voodoo5%20Help.chm::/Advanced%20Features/3dfx%20Tools%20Advanced%20Features%20Help.htm#Glide"
"FX_GLIDE_SCREENSHOT_KEY"="123"


use the F12 key to snapshot and check out the game Direcotry for file

or try this
