Extras: View *.png-Images don't work

[Vicman]

Hi Jimbo & Co
I've tried to add a *.png Picture under EXTRAS.
It don't work....(using Type: STANDARD)

*.jpg works, but i want to use a *.png

Any Idea ?

[Jimbo]

Hmm nope. Do you have a PNGlib.dll in your GameBase folder?

Anyone else having this problem?

[Vicman]

Yes, i have this PNGlib.dll (in the GB-Mainfolder, not in my created GB, right ?)
I use also *.png's for the "normal" Screenshots. And this works.
But not when using a *.png in the EXTRA

When you say it doesn't work, what actually happens?

When you say it doesn't work, what actually happens?

Well, nothing
When going to EXTRAS in the GUI, and select the Picture i've made, nothing happens....
Also when using your new column where all files are startable from...


EDIT :

O.K. got it !
*.png was not associated with any picture-view-program......
Now, it works....(for me with irfanview)

[Jimbo]

It's a valid point you have though. I'll add something to the new wiki docs to the effect that you may need to setup programs that run the extras.
