I have taken some great screenshots over the weekend. Some were funny, others dominations, others just cool. The problem is that when I open photoshop to change them to jpegs they are just black. Is anyone else having this problem or do you have a solution? Thanks.
 
I know a good solution for the future: bind "f5" "jpeg"
This will automatically save the screenshots to jpeg.
but have no idea how to solve your current problem.

PS. Actually this is really weird, I went to check screenshots I just took, and they are all black, nothing else.....so maybe update problem? Hope someone else can check if their works

all the ones i've taken for the last 3 days are black as well properly basic. my
f5 key is bound to take screenies in jped format. maybe something to do with the last patch for multi core support? maybe not. all my screenies came from the black mesa v7 server.
 
Think I found the problem....this was on the steam forums:

"screenshot" and "jpeg" commands break sometimes and output black images. With multicore rendering enabled, black screenshots will also be outputed. (Screenshot) [ultradude25] [Nameless]

EDIT: couple of my advisor dominations are gone :( oh well just going to get them next time.

Probably is an update problem. That command "jpeg" to take a jpeg screenshot is very cool though, don't have to putz around with different formats and large file sizes then.
