as title implies, im having problems with screen shot capturing in wc3.
so far i recall the screen shots were jpg type and i was able to see the screen shots i have taken, but lately it seems that the screen shots i was taking ended up differntly, it was not jpg, but something else. [i forgot the file type name, my apologies].
word of advice is apprecited ^^

Screenshots for me have always saved as TGA.

Same, basically you need some program to read or convert from TGA to whatever format you want to (JPG, PNG, etc.)

belated bump,
i tried the ifran program, it does not seem to read the warcaft 3 screen shots i have taken :s
i used the instructions as well..i might be missing something..well ill try again, but if any other program can read those screen shot files, ill be most obliged.

I believe ifran requires some sort of plugin.

In the description, just skip step 2 since it isn't the same game.
