NBA Live 98 and Fraps.

[Donatello]

For some reason, Fraps (the screenshotting program) won't work with NBA Live 98. Anyone have any idea why?


Edit: 98, not 08. I'm a retard.

DOS game maybe?

That was my only guess, but the program is for Windows 95/98.. I'm running it in the correct compatibility mode and everything. Kinda frustrating

Doesn't work with 99 either.

I'm running it in the correct compatibility mode and everything.

Why should it be in a compatability mode if your OS is the same as Fraps?

If your OS is Windows 95/98, running Fraps built for Win95/98 is no problem.
If your OS is WinXP, running Fraps built for Win95/98 is a problem even if NBA Live98 is running in compatibility mode.

The last time I checked Fraps only works with WinXP now. The last version suited for Win95/98 is Fraps 1.9d
I could send you the file if you're interested.

Running NBA Live 98 in the correct compatibility mode is what I meant, shadowgrin. The game was made for win 98

Maybe it doesn't use 3d acceleration. Maybe the game runs at 4000 fps and fraps craps on itself. Have you tried gamecam or an older version of fraps? I mean really older.

If you have an ATI video card, you can always use ATI Tray Tools to take screenshots.
