Well, the most basic way is to hit your Print Screen key and then exit out of the game and then open Microsoft Paint or something similar and then choose Paste from the menu and viola! Well at least thats what I did to make my Zork themes... :-}

thanx. i tried that and it didn't work during the cinematics. is there any way to take screencaps during those scenes? (ie: sophia's bathtub scene ^_^) i've seen screencaps of a couple different cinematics, does anyone know how that was done?

You can probably find a screen capture program that might work in game like that. One that I found was a 'UO Screen Capture' program and was free, try searching on google for that name. If you can't find it I should still have it and I can email it to you.

Big chance that it's not possible - if the game uses DirectX to show the image (and it does ;)) then there is no data to interscept from the animation - since it's going though the videocard etc. That's why you see the other thing; the bathtub that is actual image data.
Sorry - am learning programming ;D

Shame on you JDS! I don't ever want to hear about appologizing for learning anything again! Learning is a wonderful thing! ;v)
