[PC] Can't open photos from HD

dc300m02 · February 11, 2011

Hello!

I took a few photos but I can not open them. When trying to open in Photoshop, I get the following error:

"Could not complete your request because an unknown or invalid JPEG marker type is found."

Boo hoo hoo. Any help plz?

They are encrypted.

Ye they encrypted photo's because they will also stand in connection with MyTDUHouse so you can put them on the walls. Encrypting the photo's was a quick way to prevent people from putting unwanted content in their houses where others also see it.

You can't open them, but more importantnly to Eden is that you can't edit or replace them with vulgar images and then display them in your house.

I noticed that too and it's extremely annoying. I'd rather have them remove that feature completely and just let me look at and post the pictures I've taken.

An easy way to avoid this would be exporting the photos in 2 formats. One readable by your OS but not accessible via the game and one encrypted.

the way i do it is once you have taken your photo,s exit the game and then use a program called fraps witch allows you to record in game footage and take photo,s. then go back into your game go to your photo album select the pic/s you have taken and then press witch ever button you have set for screen capture mode in my case its F10.

hope this helps

Could you describe it here, plz? Is it an specific program or option on the PS?

Note that anybody who has steam cán post pictures, including in-motion ones. Steam has quickly after TDU2's release received a screenshot manager that automatically activates at game start-up (dunno if it also works for other games). You just press F12 and here a photography sound. You'll get options in a small window once you go back to desktop including ''Show Files on Disk'' and ''Upload'' (to steam profile).

Or if you have Xfire - press (xfire_key)+S, or if you have FRAPS, press whatever key you chose for snapshot.

Now, i'm a bit lost, didn't he asked about the pics taken in photo mode? They can't be opened by any standard program or PS, i have CS3 and it doesn't... the pics taken with programs like fraps, or any other placed in the PHOTOS folder, when loading in the game make appear a message to delete the savegame because its corrupted, if u close the game and delete the non-game-taken pic, it back to normal...

Like he asked 1st and said found a answer... is it possible to edit them or convert any to load in the game?
