VR Screenshot Fix

VR Screenshot Fix

Standalone program for improving No Man’s Sky’s wonky VR photo mode screenshots, which are stretched by default.
With options for both replacement and renaming, this program allows you to safely fix batches of images.

By default, No Man’s Sky’s VR photo mode screenshots appear to be stretched horizontally. By changing their aspect ratio to 1:1 (square) I’ve discovered that the shots look much more natural.
For evidence that this tool is genuinely making the screenshots look more like the in-game environments they’re capturing; notice that in the VR originals, perfect circles are stretched into ovals, but when edited via this tool they return to perfect circles.
(See examples in the media tab)

The base program is a simple script to perform this operation on a batch of images.
In addition, I created a nifty GUI version with a few useful options, allowing you to rename converted files to your liking while preventing accidental replacement of originals.
