Deleting Saved Costumes

kishkuma · May 2016

So I am trying to figure out where the saved costume files are on the current (Steam) version of the client. Once upon a time (or, on the non-Steam client?) they used to be .jpg files in the screenshots folder, but this is no longer the case. I have searched my computer with no luck, and searched the 'net and these forums only finding old and outdated information (or none at all). If anyone could tell me what the deal is with this now, I would appreciate it. I want to delete some of my old costumes (and if possible copy the saved files to load from the PTS client). Thanks!

here's the usual locations of the Costume files:
C:\Program Files\Champions Online\Live\screenshots
or
C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\champions online\Champions Online\Live\screenshots

for pts usually replace Live with Test

Thanks for the reply. However, as I mentioned, the screenshots aren't in that folder anymore unfortunately. (For example, my screenshots folder is completely empty, but all my saved costumes still exist.) Hopefully someone knows where they are now, or if they are even stored locally anymore.

If you are talking about costumes saved on your character, then they can't be deleted. You can't free a costume slot. You can only edit it or replace with another costume. It always was that way. No changes were made.

If you are talking about costume saves you load into tailor, then they still are, and always were, in your screenshots folder. Nothing changed.

Then just re-save them, go into each char and edit their costumes and just click save, I remove all my costumes, that are really old or unnamed and then I re-add the new ones, saves up space

Except, they're not there. Nothing is there. I saved a bunch of costumes yesterday, that folder is still empty.

I save new costumes all the time. There is nothing in my screenshots folder. Wherever they are being saved it isn't there.

Windows 10 might be storing them within your appdata folder depending how it is set up

Sorry, I should have specified I am using windows 7. I tried checking the AppData folder, but didn't see anything Cryptic/CO/PW related in there. Even tried a general search for .jpg files but nothing related to CO came up.

Thanks for trying to help though.

Oh, lord. I figured out what the "problem" was. I apparently have an old install of Champions on my HDD (H:) drive, but am currently playing from an install on my gaming SSD (I: drive). I guess that explains my confusion. Please feel free to delete this thread or whatever. >.>
