Screenshots?

Post by VladX »

With EtPro 3.1 (I think since then. possibley before, i dunno) My screenshots have been getting saved as .tga files and I cannot open this type of file. Suggestions?

*Edit*: Just figured out can be opened with Quick time...

Nah, TGA's need to be default. JPEG's a bit too lossy for default ;).

Go get the GIMP or Irfanview ( both free ) if you want a good program to manipulate or open/save etc TGA's.

Having jpeg screenshots as the default would be acceptable if the quality of the saved jpegs was higher. :?
Right now, if you've got a player with red in his/her name in the fireteam, you're guaranteed an ugly screenshot!

Well not everyone has Quicktime. And most internet places wont allow them to be uploaded as pics. Can't they be saved as úber large bmps?

Completely free tool (for Win32) that can display TGAs and a gazillion other image formats, and I'm pretty sure it can convert them to JPEG as well...

PS. Everyone that has Mozilla or IE can view TGAs, you don't need Quicktime. You're generally better off using compressed images on the web though.
