Currently screenshots are just numbered. But this is a problem if you want to archive the shots since it’s the only thing that is really permanent or can be shared.
Here’s an example, I have an SSD, which I don’t want to fill with my 1000’s of screen shots, obviously. So I move them to another disk. But if you delete them from the Screenshot folder, they are then numbered as duplicates starting with 1 again.
So I need to grab them in chunks and run a batch renamer every time to rename them with date / number so that they have unique names. Irfanview has that feature.
But this is a pain. How about we change screenshotting to use a gwyyyymmddhhmmssmmm.jpg format so that every name is unique.
Sounds like a great little project for one if your trainees or interns.
I won’t even go back to the subject about how every screenshot is a Selfie. That’s been covered many times before, but I still don’t get why we still don’t have a 1st person view so we can take anything but selfies. All the other games do that of course.
Thanks.
