Screenshots not being saved.

After updating to the new client, I'm not able to take any screenshots via F8 or with a camera IG. They just don't save. Neither of my folders have screenshots. I've deleted gta.set or whatever it is, didn't help. I re-installed samp, nothing. HELP

They usually go straight into this folder, can you please let me know the folders you have looked in/checked?

The location you said above, is empty. I'm at a loss for solutions, but one thing I haven't tried is a re-install of GTA. If I can't find any quick fixes, then I will give that a shot.

is the only other thing I can think of. If not best bet is to reinstall.

Hollup before you uninstall make sure GTA SA has permission to run as an admin!!

Also ensure that the folder has appropriate read/write permissions

Does it say screenshot taken sa-mp-000 when you try to take a screenshot or it doesn't write anything?

 

Also, are you running your samp as an administrator? 

Try doing that and if it doesn't work reinstalling SA and samp should do it.

Mybe try to delete the grand theft auto folder in my documents?

It does say the screenshots are taken, but it just repeats over and over.

I had the same issue, I had to buy a new computer and the issue was no more.

Several people tried to assist me and none of them found an answer, it's best that your just download a program that does screencaptures on the press of a button.

Issue has been fixed. Re-installed GTA and changed the directory location.
