Screen Shots wont show
Da Sugarpumpkin:
Hi,everyone! I have lost interest in designing right now. The reason to that is the issue I have with all my sims games. It does not crash or anything, but non of the sims 2, sims 3 and sims 4 screen shots are showing up in my sims screen shot folder...After I tested several different antivirus programs, to see if I should stay with the good ol Avast antivirus, I also tested Bullguard! The issues with playing the game including other issues with the game, like not showing my screen shots in my sims screen shot folders. If you ask me, Bullguard is a gaming demon antivirus. I have not seen an antivirus witch cause this problems with gaming and games. I uninstalled that bullguard garbage and installed Avast again. Now I do not have issues playing my games. But the screen shots still wont show up on the sims screen shot folders, when i take new screen shots of the objects or clothing that i have created...and this is bloody annoying the hell out of me, which have also made me loose motivation to even create anything.. Could someone PLEASE help me fix this annoying issue... :confused:Thanks!

Are you using a screenshot program, and which one is it?
First of all, make sure the screnshot program is actually running before you run your game.
(I've used Gadwin Printscreen for a long while, and back when I used XP or Vista I could set it to run at startup, but on my laptop with Win7 the setting doesn't work, so I have tos tart it manually)
Second, if the program won't take pictures of your game when running in fullscreen, or returns a black picture (I've also had this problem with Gadwin previously), try running the games in windowed mode.
(It's possible to have one shortcut for full mode and one for windowed).

Actually I do not use any screen shot program. It is the sims snapshots you take with the sims camera, when you play the game that will not show up in the game folders where the snapshots are stored..I have tried one snapshot program, but it do not work for me! The games camera to take snapshots are way more handy and it is that i have issues with in all my sims games.. :(
Theraven:
An antivirus program can be the problem. Have you tried to whitelist or exclude the Sims folders in the antivirus program?
I've had Avast earlier, and didn't notice anything like this. Never heard of Bullguard.
For sims 2, you need to look in the screenshot folders in the neighborhood folder for the neighborhood you played. The separate screenshot folder won't have your pictures.
Da Sugarpumpkin:
Yes that is what I suspect the issue is. The Bullgard antivirus, has caused this simply for the fact that it gave several issues running games and other programs. I never had this issue while using Avast internet security and I will from now on stick to avast and not try anything else. About the sims 2 screen shots, yes I am aware of that it should bee located in the neighborhoods folder on the neighborhood you are playing in that screen shot folder, but non of the new snapshots are showing up there... :(
Bellow is the antivirus bullguard that has caused this issue. I had no such problems untill i installed it and tested it. And it wont save any new screenshots after i have uninstalled it and reinstalled Avast..Guys this is the LAST antivirus programs you should use if you do not want issues with gaming...It is GARBAGE!
