Takes a screenshot of the 3D scene and saves it to the provided filename.

• Only the 3D scene is captured, no GUI/cursor
• Sampling is taken in consideration: a 200% sampling value on a 1920x1080 resolution takes a 3840x2160 screenshot
• PNG is the only available format

The file is saved in the Screenshots folder in the Profile directory. The folder is by default limited to 250 MB to prevent abuse.
To increase the limit, add the following line at the end of the profile file:

maxScreenShotFolderSizeMB = 2000; // 2 GB
