Attempting to take a screenshot temporarily freezes the calculator #1

On a real 84+CE, attempting to take a screenshot from within the TI Connect CE app freezes the calculator, at least until you disconnect the calculator from USB and wait a few seconds.

That's not unexpected, as the calculator is running in ASM program you can't assume screenshots (or anything else with USB) will work. If you want to screenshot/capture it, you'll have to do so with an emulator, CEmu in this case.

@adriweb If I wanted to do this, what would be your suggesting for taking a screenshot? I have almost no idea how the program works and really interesting in diving into the more fine details of this Minecraft version.

As I mentioned in my previous comment, you'll have to run the program inside the calculator emulator (called CEmu) on your computer. It has a feature to take a screenshot or even record the screen.
