Asking Community for help
« on: March 03, 2008, 08:26:11 pm »
Hey PlaneShift players I have a request of the community and was hoping you could help.

 :'( I did something really stupid. I didn't back up my screenshot folder and copied right over it as I downloaded the new client. I have lost over 2000 screenshots that I had for my portrait studio. What I am asking for is a donation of any screenshots players have of the landscapes from different angles, different races with different poses, and screeni's of the buildings in all maps. I prefer first person veiw with very clean screeni's (meaning no shortcut, chatbox and other such things in the screeni) This is a serious set back for me and my roleplay so if you can donate even just one screenshot it would be very helpful. I appreciate your help.

Just PM me for my email. Thanks.  :sorcerer:

Thank you so much Socius Rockus! Anything at this point is helpful.

@Community: I know there are those of you who are wondering why I don't just get one of those programs to recover the files. Problem is (1) I emptied the recycle bin right after I installed  :-[  and (2) I did recover some but most were damaged.

If you have viewmesh installed, you can load up any character model you want and take a screenshot in any angle and any animation :) Very handy if you load viewmesh fullscreen and change the background to a full black - that way it's easier to cut out in Photoshop or any other graphic app.

You could also search the screenshot thread to see if there are any suitable backdrops.

Steel Blue does not overwrite Crystal Blue. Your screenshots should be safe. Unless you took your entire CB directory and dumped in in the trash.

or you installed SB over CB [and deleted the screenshots folder]

Trust me, all my screeni's are gone. My husband spent a considerable amount of time trying to find them for me and used different types of recovery programs. He's the computer wiz and I am sooooo not. Otherwise I wouldn't be in this mess. :P  :'(

Thanks for the suggestion.  :) Already thought of it and I have been combing through. Unfortantly most are of weird shots and aren't really the style I am looking for. I have found a few though.

You should be able to just restore your computer's memory to a checkpoint made a few days ago. You'd have to redownload the SB client, but you should have CB back, along with your screenies.

No you wouldn't, unfortunately system restore doesn't store user data, only windows data so CB woluldn't be back.

I did the exact same thing in the version before this one. It was terrible; every single darn picture was gone. My head got bruised from hitting my desk so much.  :'( I feel your pain, sister.
