To do this, go to steamapps\common\Hitman Absolution\mods and open the ini file for the corresponding mod and change the keyboard bindings at wish. Here is an example for freecamera.ini if I want to pause and activate the camera. Changed from f10 to num0.

How to Take A Screenshot

This one is quite simple. Once the game loaded and your level loaded, press F11 to pause the game and then K to activate the camera. Alternatively, you can press F10 to do both.

Once done, pres F10 to come back to the game.

About ReShade and HUD

rename dxgi.dll to d3d11.dll to avoid the SDK to not load correctly. The HUD mod needs to be loaded for the keybind to work.
