My screen goes completely black. I cant see the x. Also, how do you capture a screen shot to submit for bug report?

Press F9, it will be saved in the game folder.

Ooo, a completely black screenshot! I think you might even be allowed to post that one.

I'm not even BOTHERING to give bug reports. But I have like 20 bugs TO report. LOL.

Wow, you're a real value add to this process then aren't you?

Whenever my game crashes, i send in the game report for analysis, along with a few sentences on the last thing i was doing when it crashed. Just a little update, I created a new character and it fixed this black screen of death.

I know that you may think "There are so many bugs, I'm sure Disney already knows about it. They'll fix it". But the truth is, some of those bugs may not be reported enough, and it won't be fixed.
The more reports about a bug, the sooner it will be fixed.
Report every bug you see, otherwise there is no use in you even being a Beta Tester. You're accepted into Beta for a reason, they want you to test the game and help make the game more stable so once they launch the game, they won't have any problems for their new players.

Anyway, I don't know why everyone seems to have this black screen problem, I only get that with VMK. But I haven't had one problem with a black screen on this game once. It's odd.

Im having the same Black Screen of death, i cant complete the task because I need to go into the mansion.

I will try the F12 and let you know.

It worked, but then all of my buttons disappeared, i could toggle back and forth between the black screen and the working no button screen.


Frustrating

I didn't get the black screen till after I completed the Quest to kill the eight navy gaurds and then return to Tortuga. Now when i enter the bar to go back to Gibbs, it is black. Another issue is walking under the water afterwards, can't get back in the boat.
