Posted:  17 Dec 2008 16:31   Last Edited By: cipater
I'm having problems capturing screenshots of an online Flash game (www.acrobabble.com).  When I try to take a screenshot mid-game, I'm booted from the room I'm in and find myself in the lobby, and the Flash itself stops responding. 

The screenshots I've managed to save are all of me being confused in the lobby LOL. 

Any idea why this is happening?


Plugin Ver:  FireShot 0.63
OS Type / Ver:  WinXP SP2
FF Ver:  FF 3.0.5
To recreate the glitch:
1) Go to www.acrobabble.com
2) Register an account to play (painless, I promise)
3) Go to the Play screen (brings up the actual Flash program and starts you in the lobby)
4) Join any room
5) Try to take a screenshot at any point once in the room.

Unfortunately turning Firefox to ability to grab flash causes its reloading. That's why you see it from the beginning.

Alternatively, you could copy it to clipboard using Print Screen, then use "Open from Clipboard" option available in FireShot Pro.
