    Edit your screen capture launch item and specify desired path into the command line of the associated application. By default the command line contains:

    -sc "%RTFolder%\%ScrApp%_%ScrIdx%.bmp"

    which results in storing the screenshots in <AppplicationName>_<index>.bmp files into RivaTuner's root folder. You may replace path (it should be absolute one and the folder must exist) and application name with anything you wish,
    e.g.:

    -sc "C:\Screenshots\MyScreenshot%ScrIdx%.bmp"

    If the screenshots continue to be pitch black, the game may be running a custom filter (usually antialias) that prevents correct capturing.
