Program name: FSChatScroll Version: 1.6 Author: Russell Gilbert Web site: http://www.chocolatesoftware.com/fschatscroll Simulator version: MS Flight Simulator 2002 Platform: Any version of Windows Freeware DESCRIPTION: MS Flight Simulator 2002's multiplayer chat window has a bug that causes the window to not scroll properly when new messages are displayed. To see the latest messages, you have to manually scroll the window down each time a new message arrives. FSChatScroll.exe is a simple little program (76Kb) that fixes that problem. Start it up and then just minimize it while you fly in FS2002. When a new message is added to the chat window, FSChatScroll will scroll the window down so you can see it. It runs on all versions of Windows, and since it uses minimal CPU resources (it shows as zero percent on my machine), it won't affect your frame rate in the game. HOW TO USE: - Download the zip file and unzip it to any directory. - Double-click the file "FSChatScroll16.exe" to run the program. - You'll see a black window with a message saying it's running. - Just minimize the window, and let it run in the background while you fly in FS2002. - The program can be started either before or after starting FS2002. - To close the program, press Ctrl-C or just close the window. A NOTE ABOUT FULL-SCREEN MODE: FS2002's chat window behaves differently when you're running in Full Screen mode. To check which mode you're using, look under the View menu in the game, and see if "Full Screen" has a check mark next to it. If not, then you're running in normal windowed mode. In Full Screen mode, the chat window disappears after you send a message, and you have to press a key (such as the Enter key) to bring it back up again. When another player sends a message, you'll see it scroll across the top of the window in the green bar, but the chat window will not open by itself. If you'd like FSChatScroll to open the window for you when new messages arrive, run the program "FSChatScroll16AutoShow.exe" instead. In normal windowed mode, the chat window stays up all the time, so you probably want to run the normal "FSChatScroll16.exe" program. NEW IN VERSION 1.6: Now compatible with non-English versions of FS2002. NEW IN VERSION 1.5: Fixes a problem that happens when the multiplayer session is restarted while FSChatScroll is running.
