Unable to Post SS
« on: February 17, 2016, 04:14:55 PM »
I've been accused of hacking several times the past few weeks, and for some reason I'm unable to post my screenshots to the SS site.  Every time I try, the page just refreshes and the SS does not get uploaded.  Does anyone know a reason why this could be happening, and any possible fix for it?

In the meantime - here is your SS SurlySailor.  No need to impersonate a mod and threaten to ban me because you got your ass handed to you several times  ;)

These are .png files, War2 takes screenshots in .pcx.  If you tried to upload png files that may be why it didn't work.  Alternatively, if you were trying with .pcx, then were you making sure to check the "not a robot" box, etc?  Also that guy isn't a mod.

Converting to .pcx fixed the problem - thank you!

I tried nearly every file extension, but forgot War2 is 1000 years old uses the oldest one out there  :o

What the hell though, you don't need to convert to pcx, that's the native format of an unedited screenshot.  If you press prnt-scrn in a game it will save a pcx file in your War2 directory.

I must have some files installed incorrectly, because in-game screenshots get saved to a separate folder as .png

Do you believe there's some strange version of Combat out there that auto-converts pcx files into png and saves them in a separate folder?  Wtf?

No dimwit, I was speaking of anything you say in general.

Hm, some kind of external screenshot program?..
Need help to translate War2Combat to German, French, Italian, Polish or another language: http://forum.war2.ru/index.php/topic,4728.0.html

He may just have the wrong extension set in the Windows default settings.
