XP unable to open screenshots

Post by dilflat »

I have recently installed MSTS on my new system which uses Windows XP.
All was fine untill I tried a bit of virtual photography only to find that I cannot get the picture and fax viewer to open the screenshots. The PCX format shows up in the file types checklist and I never had this problem with my old ME based system. I hate to admit it but I am completely baffled.
Has anyone else had this problem or does anybody know of a solution.
Cheers,
Dave.

I use Paint Shop Pro to view all my images. Shareware versions are available on lots of magazine cover CDs. It's also the ideal MSTS texturing tool.

Try "IrfanView",it's free and works with many other file types too,plus you can save in the other formats too.

Try Mspaint Program.

I select all Files, navigate to MSTS and open the files, then re-save to JPG in a different folder.
