Scrolling Chat Text

A customizable scrolling chat frame that displays filtered messages with emoji support, compatible with all WoW versions.

Scrolling Chat Text (SCT) enhances your World of Warcraft experience by displaying chat messages in a separate, customizable scrolling frame on your screen. Perfect for keeping important messages visible while you focus on gameplay, this addon works seamlessly across all WoW versions including Classic Era, Burning Crusade Classic, Wrath of the Lich King Classic, Cataclysm Classic, Mists of Pandaria Classic, and Retail.

The idea for this addon was sparked by Novaspark's Nova Raid Companion's Scrolling Raid Events module.
