The best way to make screenshots, and movies, is recording tracks.

Tracks are not video files, they are data files that contain our mission configuration and action´s tracking data.

With which missions can be played using the game plays as theater.

Playing tracks you can pause, go forward, go backward, slow-motion, change the camera, the field of view and position of them, switch planes ... and hide windows and icons.

To make a track file just click record in the mission options and make a record track file, "replay.trk" for example, to use has default replay´s vault.

Then if the mission was worth to replay go to "Main menu / Extras / Play tracks" to play the last mission´s replay file.

Once is loaded there will be options of "Change views", "Hide message windows" and "Hide icons", just tick them and click start (if the screen is showing blue artifacts press F1, its a bug).

Using this way you dont have to deal with changes in info windows configurations, saving your current one, and you have no limits to make beautiful screenshots.
