Screenshots questions

How do people take screenshots:
A) Without the HUD showing
From the front of their ship while still keeping their weapons facing forwards? Whenever i go into turret view my weapons aim all over the place...

To take a screenshot press Printscreen key - it will dump multiple screenshots in your My Documents/My Pictures/Freelancer Shots folder. As far as I know theres no way to completely get rid of all the HUD settings - you can only minimze them using the backspace key. Press H for turret view - but you will still have HUD on a screenshot. To get rid of the HUD in screenshots you will have to edit them in a Paint program by cropping the image to a rectangle without HUDs showing.

if you're so bothered by the guns rotating, you can always set their turn rate to 0 (modding) and then they won't turn at all. When you're done with the screenshots, just put the turn rate back to what it was. Although I really don't see what's so bad with having the guns slightly to the side in the screenshot.
