I'm not sure - but I think screenshots have been broken off and on throughout MAME32.

screenshots have worked very well through most all versions of mame, the problem is usually you aren't looking in the right directory (or have the right directory the screenshots are created from) mame32 esepcially has put images in a moving target, here are the directories i will sugest creating to get the F12 to work in them.

images

pcx

gif

bmp

snap

i can't remember which version goes to which directory but usually they'll end up in there, there are only a few games where F12 is broken for, which game are you trying to snap?

Unless it's changed in the config, MAME32 puts pics in the \IMAGES subdirectory instead of \SNAP.

By the way INNUENDO, why do you always use m36b8 anyway? Is there something special about that version?

Thanks for your answers, guys. Well, the games that I´m trying take snapshot are all in my list, like CHELNOV, RAIDEN, PUZZLE BOBBLE, RYGAR, etc.... but I cannot see the images. But I´ll try make what you suggest for me. BBH, I use m36b8, because when I had my previous computer, the games runned very slow in the m37 series. WITHOUT SOUND!! That emulator (36b8) was very much better for me. Now I´ve upgraded my computer, but I still like it yet. :) hehehe.
