Screenshots are sometimes .PNG and sometimes .BMP? : V

Sometimes I get only .bmp, sometimes .png and .bmp both!

Any clue what's going on?

How can I get only .png's?

If you are using the Steam screenshot key (F12 I believe), then all your screenshots should be .jpg

IIRC -- the game engine saves screens as .bmp -- not sure if Steams screenshot program can be set to take other formats since I do not use it but it might be that sometimes you are using the game included one and at other times some other program.

I use the full version of Fraps which can be set to BMP, JPG, Png, or TGA so it's been awhile since using the in game or Steams which uploads them to STEAM which I don't use ( I use JPG most of the time since that saves one step when uploading to photobucket etc. - unless I want PNG lossless format for quality )
