hey,

my f11 takes .tga shots which i can open but can't do anything else with and most people have trouble with that format anyway...soooo....

/bind f11 screenshotjpeg

...right?

do i need to set some default name that increments?

if so, how do i do that?

thanks.

mine just come out as shot0000 and so on.
Its only when I forget to rename them that they get overwritten.
So here's to remembering.

/bind f11 screenshotjpeg <-- correct syntax

Each time you start Wolf, it names any screenshots you take, starting from "shot0000.tga (jpg)". While in the same Wolf session, it will automatically increment ..0001, ..0002, any additional screenshots.

When you quit and restart Wolf, it starts with shot0000 again; It will overwrite any existing screenshots of the same name, without asking you. There is no way (that I know of) to change this behavior.

There might be a way to write a DOS batch file that will rename screenshots before Wolf starts, then start RtCW.

That is all I can come up with.

I've been mostly working on the wmd website so i've just used the bind f11 and have been renaming them each session.

Works fine for me.. thanks for all the help though everybody.

If you don't mind, write it and post it here, I am interested.

Thanks,
