I decided to test this out on Castlvania 3 since it does not work on FCEUX. I was hoping it might work in this emulator. However there are two modes being displayed at once. One is the bar with your health and other info and the other is the game screen. The Name Table Viewer displays the bar with the health and info just fine, but the game screen is all garbled. Is there a way to add an option change the mode so it displays the game screen correctly? As a note Super Mario Bros. 3 does a similar thing with the Bar with all the info and the game screen, however in that case the game screen is displayed correctly and the bar is all messed up.

Change the scanline number to correspond to when you would like the display to be captured. SNES and GB have similar interfaces.

Kewl, I just set it to "239" and that solved the problem. Thanks!

snesmaster, what do you mean Castlevania 3 doesn't work on FCEUX? Which version are you using?

Sorry for the confusion I was talking about Castlevania 3 not working in the Name Table Viewer in FCEUX. The game works just fine. Now after the help I got in this post I found out it works fine in the Name Table Viewer as well if I set the Scanline number to "239".
