Photomode Errors thread - Page 2

B2K_Unbelievable · 17-03-2009, 05:06 PM

Whenever I take a picture it always lags and then it says it failed to upload. Only like 1 out of 100 pictures actually loads, and it is usually when I take a picture of an inanimate object or where there is no action.

For persona issues, I suggest contacting EA Customer Support. They should be able to retrigger the confirmation emails and help you out with Gamertags you changed the name of. I don't know the cause of your linking issue, but CS is best equipped to handle those.

Ive just got an problem with deleting. when i delete the pictures just swap over to unsaved ones... and wont get off that.. but no problem.. cause the problem was that i didnt overwrite them with new ones

I'm having issues with photo uploads. They always seem to upload but it may take a day before I can actually see them on my profile to save them. Also, I have over seven photos uploaded and still didn't get the achievement for doing so.

When the photo uploads, it looks as if it's in a constant loop. It says you have X amount of unsaved photos, but will not let me view them. As I said they appear to be in a loop of sorts.

I have this error where when I save my photo the little picture shows up as the one I saved but when I click it to make it larger it shows a different picture.

Issue im having at the moment is that none of the freshly taken pics are overwriting the "unsaved" pics in the photomode folder.

if i "save" any of the old pics into the public folder they transfer and open fine.

If i "delete" them from the public folder then go back to photomode folder fine.

They just wont get overwritten by any new pictures , just says you have 10 unsaved pictures etc.

Ive tried several times to save then delete pics over and over to force an overwrite but with no joy.

2. Yes.

3. I get the "blank" with the white box/red cross. If I click on the left or right arrow, I can see previously deleted photos and, very occasionally, more recent unsaved ones but never more than 1 or 2. "New" photos are generally ones I've taken 2 or 3 days previously.

4. Yes. Previously saved photos load quickly.

5. If I want to keep a photo, I use Right-click "Save image as" and save the JPeg on my local hard drive (PC). To delete, I use the "Delete" option under the saved photo.

6. My 2 latest successful saves are dated 9/20/08 and 9/23/08. They were taken on Sat 14th March. I took 2 on the 16th but they haven't shown up yet.

Thanks for taking an interest in this btw. It's appreciated.

Update: I now have 10 photos in my unsaved folder: 1 blank which never loads and 9 old, previously deleted ones that I can't get rid of. My "saved" folder is empty. I've tried taking screen shots every day this week but nothing's showing up.

i try too load my new pics from bfbc onto the website but it only loads old one ive deleted even though ive selected the new one....i really want this problem to be resolved as ive got some good pics tht i cant load

It says it uploads successfully but never really does.

Zm4rc0 · 21-03-2009, 06:24 PM

1. Zm4rc0 @ XBOX360

2. When you take a photo in-game does it upload successfully? Yes

3. On the website do your Unsaved Photos load? sometime: The first time I saw my pictures, there were 10 of them. When I deleted 5, I could then look at only 5 pictures. But now I deleted 3 more, I can only see those 2 pics. ...

4. On the website do your Saved Photos load? yes

5. On the website, the pictures load and save, but cannot be deleted. ...what? That never happened to me.

Keysn22 · 21-03-2009, 07:55 PM

I take pictures in the game and it says upload fail and i never get the trophy for it , but when i go on my profile on the BF:BC site it has the pics there. I have changed my name since i was on BF:BC and i would like for it to start working again

I've got the same basic problem, have for a while now but now that I've darn near deleted all of my old good saved photos all I have now in the unsaved are misc and ones I do not want. We need some kind of option to delete the cache of the unsaved pictures. I've been over this issue with the EA support and even they get the same problem I have.

Pafters · 22-03-2009, 02:36 AM

ive manged to get a couple of shots to open up by saving then deleting ALL the pic in and out of the public folder and eventually one will show up in the folder but when i save it it always shows in the public folder as the older overwritten pic , but when its clicked on from the public folder it shows up as the new pic.

Ive now got into the habit of saving the pics to my pc when i can .

Please post the following:

1. Gamertag/Console - Please note if you have changed your Gamertag at some point while active in BFBC.

2. When you take a photo in-game does it upload successfully? If no, describe what happens instead.

3. On the website do your Unsaved Photos load? If no, describe what happens instead.

4. On the website do your Saved Photos load? If no, describe what happens instead.

5. On the website, the pictures load and save, but cannot be deleted. Please describe how you save and attempt to delete photos.

Everytime I tried to upload pics, it fails. After about 3-4 times uploading and fail, my connection would be lost suddenly. Server problem? Uploading problem? My problem?

Answer to your question
1. Refer to above
2. When taking pics, it showes <uploading snapshots> and then <upload fails>
3. Yes
4. After I click the save bottom on the web, it saved.
5. I save and delete both with the bottom on the web, but after deleting, it comes back to the unsaved folder.

In this thread, it seems to be a common problem in photomode

Same, I'm on PS3 btw.

WPGMadMaxx · 23-03-2009, 12:37 AM

My problems are as follows:

The very expected 1-2 second lag spike you get with taking the screen shot in game.

problems with photomode in order of occurrence:
-10 photos in album, zero saved.
-10 photos saved to profile, zero in album.
-10 photos deleted from profile, zero in album.
-Page automatically refreshes, 10 same original photos in album.
-repeat, followed by aneurysm.

I can only cycle through the same 10 lalalala pictures I took way back when.

My problem is when I delete my photos and try to save the new recent ones I took, it keeps showing me the old ones that I deleted. But when I click on the photo to preview before saving it shows me the new photos.

Why aren't my new photos overwriting my old ones? When I save them thinking the new one is going to be saved it keeps showing the old one over and over again.

i104 · 23-03-2009, 12:12 PM

i can take photos but it comes back failed after trying to up load hem,&im gutted cos i want my achievment but even worse is the fact that ive lost good pics(like the one of me knifein my 50 dog tag victim)please fix this guys...by the way my gamertag is "i104"on xbox360 in the uk..cheers big ears'inabit sh*t..

Yes please! Im still waiting for this.

I love how this game supports Photomode, but it really is a pain when:

1) I have a pic in the Unsaved Photos section
2) I save that pic
3) When I decide to delete it, it just returns to Unsaved Photos

This is a pain, as it leaves no room for my new pics. Also, sometimes you take more than 10 pics and only 10 of them show up. The others are 80% of the time, lost forever. It'd be nice if when you saved your Unsaved Pics, and deleted them, DELETE delete. The 'lost' pics would then show up in place of the deleted pic.

Oh, and...

So I go round and round in circles deleting the same old pic hoping to get my new pics.

second issue
1)I take tons of pics in bfbc
2)new pics dont show in the "unsaved bucket"
3)I delete a old picture
4)the new picture is now is in the "unsaved bucket"
5)I save the new picture. AND THE OLD PICTURE COMES BACK!
So I chase this new picture and it keeps vanishing

i have this same problem. had it since day one and up to today its still the same.

vivid dark side · 26-03-2009, 11:58 AM

Was all good,last two weeks been saying upload failed 80% of the time,and the other 20% nothing shows up in the photo folder,any ideas

cocotailledeh · 26-03-2009, 12:43 PM

Hi All,
I have exactly the same as WPGMadMaxx

1. PS3/sniper3008 - never changed my ID
2. I took pictures in the begining but now I can't save picture anymore. Only the firsts ones are saved. When I try to do so, It always says something like "upload unsucessfully"
3.yes
4. Yes
5. On the website, the pictures just pass from unsaved to saved picture and from saved to unsaved.

On top of that I do not have the trophy "Catch the bad moment"

I hope you can do something.
