can anyone tell me how to get an overview screenshot exactly how it is on the official missions?

PFM. But really, just go into your mission or any mission, and hit print screen. Then go to a imaging program of any sort, go to edit, and hit paste.

first off, youre not making any sense. Second, iv gotten screenshots to work on the overview, they just look like hell. I want to have a nice prefessional looking screenshot like the official missions have.

Aculaud, I suppose you're talking about that small image with white frame and shadow under, right?

There is a little tutorial on the OFP Editing site; pretty much you can use any .jpg, but sides need to be in certain multipliers, i.e. 16,32,64,128,256....; so pictures which I use are 128*64 pixels,. I think the original image will be resized into the size you'll specify in the overview if necessary (but still even that image must fit the multipliers specs).

Hope this is what you were asking about.

thats what iv been doing all along. It just doesnt look quite right to me. I am just wondering if anyone knows how codemasters does it?
