How do I take a cutscene screenshot?

I know normally you can press Print Screen and the picture will be saved in the .exe directory, but if you try that in a cutscene it'll just skip it and won't take a screenshot.

Any ideas apart from screen recording then grabbing a still from that?

Or a program that takes continuous screenshots. It's the only way to get good shots I'm afraid.

I use Fraps to record stuff like that, then I take still frames out of the resulting video, and crop them if needed. That's how I got pictures of most NPCs, enemies, etc in LEGO Universe, as taking direct screenshots of them didn't come out cleanly since they moved around so much:

I'd say it works quite well.

Try this:

I'm using it all the time now, and it runs perfectly on Vista/7. Just be sure to save as PNG, do not close on capture, auto-save into your folder of choice, and remove the shortcut for taking a full screen capture (which by default is "A"). You should be able to get an image. ;)
