Convert vmod to regular image - metulburr - 04-29-2018
I am trying to make a custom image using the background of a vmod. Apparently the only decent image you can get of this board game that is not a screenshot of it as it lay on your table is from here.

But its a vmod file. I have no idea what this is. But all i want is it converted to some form of an image file to use as a background to add things to in gimp.
I have googled around but i cant seem to find anything related to converting it to a png or jpeg. GIMP doesnt seem to be able to open it up as is either. I am also on linux. I searched and it is some form of a video file. Is there a way to take a frame from that video file to make an image that is png?

oh i just figured out that its a compress archive. So i just uncompressed it and the images are there.
