Has anyone recently had issues with screenshots taken not appearing in their screenshot folder, even if it is empty to start?

Also, does a sort of blank file called "EFU" appear when you try?

Ghost

That just started happening to me. It's never happened before.

SanTelmo

Yes, happens to me. As I do not recall this happening before I installed this http://www.escapefromunderdark.com/forums/showthread.php?t=47427 I believe it to be the cause. I have the full version (which is not recommended) What about the rest of you?
"EFU is a romance server now" -Vlaid

"Some people just gotta be killed" -Gip

domare

Happening to me as well.  *sighs*  Except, I did not download the link that SanTelmo indicated.

EfUA_undercover

Just tried, same here. I did install the launcher in full version aswell, but as domare has the problem without using it I doubt it's related. This mysterious EFU-file is showing up aswell.

Wildlings

:(  Having the same issue.  Tried taking some today, got nothing.  Last ones that saved were from the 2nd.

haven't downloaded anything since that time either...

How bizarre! What happens when you take the shots outside of efu?

I just took one in a mod, and it worked fine.

Using windowed mode usually causes this.

Just tested using full screen on EfUA and still having the same problem.

The Old Hack

Yeah, also having the same problem even in non-windowed mode.

Pretty confident that Scotty's launcher isn't the cause of this. All the launcher does it launch nwn with some special switches on it.
 So instead of running "nwn.exe" it runs something like "nwn.exe -s efu.us.to" or something similar. This won't have any effect on your screeny taking ability.

The last successful EFUA screenshot I took was on November 7th. So sometime between then and today a change may have occurred that is causing this problem.

Windowed mode does not affect my screenshots. I have taken a silly amount of EFU screenshots over the years and play exclusively in windowed mode.

The peculiar thing I notice is the creation of this 'blank' file. Because it has no file type. After I delete it and try to take another screenshot, it gets created again.

I haven't logged in for a few days and I just tried taking a screenshot IG.

I can't take screenshots either. Instead, I found a file in my screenshot folder simply named "EFU" with no extension. it's zero bytes and it appears to be written every time I hit the Print Screen key when logged into the server.
