Screen Shots for Workshop

[BeepBoop]

I would like to add some screenshots of my creations on their workshop pages. However I can not figure out how to get an ingame or steam screen shot to load in. Any tips?

the thumbnail cant be changed as those have to be included right when you're uploading the content.

i tried asking one at playful via chat about this and the answer was like this (not 100% sure if i do recall it correctly):

the devs at playful kinda like that the workshopcontent all share the same look and are unlikly to change it.

screenshots on the other hand can be added after uploaded to the workshop. all you need for that is to know where your screenshots are stored (workshoppreviews are uploaded from your hdd).

If you took a screenshot in game using F12 (default key for Steam screenshots) then it cannot be too big as that is what you use to post screenshots on Steam. Did you perhaps use a different method to take your screenshot such as screen capture software or the good ol' print screen key? Anyhoo, when you take a screenshot the Steam way, after you exit the game you'll see a popup of the screenshots you took during that session. From there you can click on the shot you want, and click "Show on Disk", that will take you to the folder it is stored in. From there just take note of the file path so that when you go to upload a shot on your workshop item you can find it that way. Good luck :)

In order to add images to your workshop items, you will need to upload it to the workshop. First, submit your blueprint. Then once it is loaded open up the Workshop outside of the game. Find your blueprint and then on the right-hand side of the screen near the Title of the Blueprint you should see "Owner Controls" with some links below it. Click on the "Add/Edit Images & Videos" link and choose what files or videos that you want to add.

If you are wanting to add screenshots then make sure they were taken as Turkish described by using the Steam Screenshot utility while in game. (Pretty sure it defaults to F12)

An easy way to find those screenshots is to open your Steam Library and right click on Creativerse. Choose View Screenshots and then the Show on Disk button at the bottom.

I tried the ~ button, it took a picture in game. And saved to my pc, but it said that one was too big. I will try the f12 method. Thanks :3

You can still use the ~ key to take the photo. I use Windows 10 and open up paint, resize to 70 and then save as the photo.

i somehow never got the 10 upgrade. but thanks for the tip! :3

Whatever version of Windows you have, I am sure there is a paint program you can use.

Prob already been said. However here is a little more ways:

How To Take ScreenShots Three Easy Different Ways.
🐾If you use steam push 📌"F12" it saves it until you turn off the game. 📌A Steam pop up will happen with a list of pictures. You can now post them to your Steam Profile, to the game community screenshots, and or save to your computer.
🐾So in your Steam folder under 📌"User Data," there is a regular number and a negative number, the regular number is your steam id, under that number is a bunch more numbers...
🐾The best thing you can do to find this folder is to go into your game, press 📌"F12" (steam screenshot)
🐾Go to the 📌"View" menu in Steam, click the 📌"Screenshots entry", highlight a screenshot in the window that pops up, and hit 📌"View on Disk". This will open an explorer window to the directory where steam stores your screenshots, from here you can upload them to steam and put them into forums.
🐾If you do not have steam, out or in a game and want to screenshot anything on the screen push 📌"Print Screen" then you can go over to FB/twitter/discord. "Some" photo editing software are also able to 📌"Paste" on a 📌"New" file. Unsure of anywhere else that is able to do it like this.
🐾Now just go to post a comment push 📌" right click" then 📌"Paste" the picture should pop up in the photo box. Post the picture than 📌"Right Click" 📌"Save As" save it, then you can keep the post you just did showing off to everyone, delete it or set it to hide.
🐾Also, you can screenshot in game by pushing 📌" ~ " (unshift so you want ` )
🐾This option is unavailable if you have any window open in the game. (Map, Crafting, Bags, Store, and So On)
🐾On your desktop, itself will be a folder called 📌"Creativerse" and inside that folder will be 1 folder for each screenshot you take with the game camera button.

I hope this helps.
May The Karma Of The Game Always Be On Your Side.
Happy Gaming
