Screen shot is corrupted on certain tables?

[madmrmax]

Ok - kinda weird problem, but with my table, BAM's screen shot/snap shot seems to generate a slightly corrupted image. It doesn't occur when I just use a generic "new table", just on my table (in development). This kinda is frustrating as I want to take screen shots and eventually share said images.

The image might look black and white\grayscale, it actually isn't. This repros even when I run my table in a Window vs. full screen. I'm on Windows 11.

Same issue with Terminator 2 Skynet edition, so it at least isn't something weird that I'm doing.

I was able to make a screenshot of Terminator 2 Skynet ULTIMATE 1.06. I don't recall anyone ever having a problem like that. Screenshots are made by BAM. My only idea is maybe it got hosed somehow. You might as well update to the new BAM while you are at it. The update was just posted Sunday here:

Thanks. Yup I just updated BAM today. I don't know why but yeah on this computer (laptop) something about these tables is causing BAM screen shot corruption. Since a generic new table doesn't cause this, I've been slowly adding things to the table to see what causes it to generate the corrupted image.

Hi,
Your screenshot have weird resolution: 1142x772.
Please share info about graphics card, driver version and video/rendering options in FP.

I'm running a Surface Pro 9 i5
When running from the LCD screen, I run at a resolution of 1518 x 1012. I also sometimes have an external monitor hooked up running at 1920 x 1080.

If I run FP not at 1518 x 1012, then it does work!

I don't understand why some tables (like the generic New table) have no problems taking a snapshot/screenshot when I run it at 1518 x 1012.

Here is BAM.dll for this problem debug:

https://ravarcade.pl/debug/BAM_v373_snapshot.zip

This version will save raw data used to save snapshot. With it i will try to recreate problem.
It will save in same directory as snapshot file with "raw" extension.
Try to reproduce problem and send me that file. Please, make sure, that screenshot is broken.
