How do i change the screenshot output?

Post by chapsterGamer »

I know it sounds silly, however I couldn't figure out or find a way to change it so it outputs in PNG not BMP. Am I doing something wrong?

I don't think you can change the output in Locomotion, but you can just load it up in Paint and save as a PNG.

Another thing you can try is getting something like Irfanview which can load and save in most image formats (even some obscure ones).

At least with Irfanview it allows you to save PNG's with varying levels of compression though the highest compression takes the longest but can sometimes turn a 5-10MB BMP into a 2-4MB PNG and still retain all the quality and pixels. Having a Quad core with 8GB of ram saving large PNG's at 1920x1080 resolution only takes like 1-2 seconds (Then again I'm also saving to a traditional spinner Hard Disk)
