I've captured several images from my gameplay, unfortunately none of them are viewable,

all end up to be a useless files that can't be viewed,

 

I've used all image viewer, picasa, MS viewer, adobe image viewer, photoshop, etc..

Use Fraps, to capture screen shots, or, set a hotkey in your graphics controls to do so. If you have an ATI card, use Ray Adam's ATI Tray Tools. Works great for me.

 

So there is no any other way to capture screenshot normally ?

 

I guess I've to use external software, right ?

I guess you're using the Print Screen key to capture screen shots? In that case the files should be in .bmp format. Try to upload one of them to www.fixpicture.org then choose the JPG format and convert it.

The in game screenshots are saved in .bmp format so if usng photoshop as you mentioned they should be viewable --- I use it to load them and change to jpg format all the time - so it can definitely open them -- Are you sure you are trying to open the screenshots ? -- the game will save them to your Oblivion install folder by default under the nem Screenshotxx.bmp (xx increments by 1 starting from whatever your .ini fie says is next - it increments as you take shots and saves the last # when exiting the game (as long as you are not crashing on exit from the game) so that the next session starts where the last one left off instead of ooverwriting the old ones. If you installed the game to the default Program files location this can cause problems in VITA or Win7 since that folder is high security and sometime marked as read only so the files can not be saved to that location so that might be the problem. Either reinstall to a different folder (ie. C:games\Oblivion or similar) or as suggested use Fraps so you can set a different save folder (or change your oblivion.ini to save the screens to a different location.

 

Another possible problem with the In game screenshooter is if you have AA enabled it will not work (anothr reason many use FRAPS instead. So if you have AA enabled try turning it off (though then you also do not get the game notification saying Screenshot XX created or whatever it flashes on screen)
