Screenshot properties...

I was playing last night, just a quick spin through the "Barham" scenario... took some nice screenshots but found out that instead of being taken at 1650x1080 there at 1024x768 in .bmp format. Can I change this to my widescreen res (using Rubini's fix) and .jpg so it's easier to upload to photobucket?

Btw, I sunk Barham with a single eel... estimated her speed wrong and only my last eel hit her. Got her right on the rudder! Blew away her starbord side props, must have caused heavy flooding because she started to slow and rise on the bow... half an hour later my crew announce "She's going down" I've never sunk a BB with a single torpedo before lol.

It's good to be back!

You can resize and change the format using Irfanview:

hey, while someone is on the subject - i'm using the resfix mod and via that rerouting my screenshots to a designated folder in my documents - but they end up there as .tga files. windows won't show me a thumbnail version when i go to scroll through that folder or want to choose a file to open from it in other programs. i can convert to other formats after the fact but it's kind of a pain not to have a thumbnail to look at to know which shot is which right off. is there some config i can change to get a .bmp file or some other format that will make a nice thumbnail?

The only I know and an easy and fast way to watch .TGA files could be a small free program called 1aview...

Viewing them's no problem if I open the program I already have to convert them - it would just save me a step if I could get thumbnails of them from Windows when I want to go straight to that folder and choose one particular shot to open.

Eh, I just need to get in the habit of going straight the the viewer/converter program when I want to scroll through my screenshots. I'm going to be using it on them sooner or later anyway.
