Snapshot Problems

[Arouse]

Whenever I take a snapshots, then look in the "storytelling" folder, there is only one picture, the picture I last snapped. I think they're overwriting eachother. Is there anyway I can prevent this?
Thanks.

This question is fully answered in the FAQs

Thanks for that, whilst I'm here though I was wondering if you had any ideas on how I'd go about sorting this little "issue?" (Below.)

How can I remove those shadows?! (Covering majority of the floor.)

[k8mc]

It looks like these are being made by the roof and they should go away if you go to options>graphics/performance options then turn shadows off. This will turn off shadows everywhere.

Again, THANKS. I promise, one more question then I'll leave you all alone. I'm encountering a problem, I think pictures speak for words.

LOL, sorry luv, but you'll have to explain with words as well.

Wossa matta? Is it the $400 stairs (seems a bit steep :p ) Maybe you can't make them start on the foundation ... well you can't that close to the street ... maybe ... :rolleyes:

(And please don't leave us alone)

I figured it out, don't worry - I just had to bear it and go along. :)

Here's the final result, sorry if the page stretches!

Hai carumba! I see you like to use everything in the catolog ... :p It's very pretty but I would hate to play it ... I'd be forever losing my sims :rolleyes:

[muffin-tacos]

Wow, that's really pretty!! Is it a vacation lot by any chance? I'd love to go to that place for my holiday. :D

[Arouse]

It's a home, and it's pretty hectic...Bedroom's are looking snazzy though, if I say myself! Thanks for commenting on it too.

Man....so how much would a house like that set a Sim back?

It was alot, trust me. ^___^ A new problem has arisen, I've adjusted the camera settings so that they're bigger and better quality, but they still seem slightly blurred and distorted...Solution, geniuses?! :D

[Mirelly]

Can you post up a snapshot jpg (the last one taken) and its companion snapshot bitmap from the main Storytelling folder in The Sims 2 folder? That will enable us to compare.

There will inevitably be some loss of detail with in-game snapshots because they are svaed as jpg files with preset compression values. I don't know that there's a facility to fine tune that.

[Arouse]

Oh...I solved the problem, I'd set the photo's as best quality, but never saved the settings...Duh. Besides, I've resorted to just screenshotting myself. I'm getting better results. :D
