Blank Chat Screen

Postby SoltanH » Thu Nov 10, 2011 5:53 pm

When I start up Screen Monkey as the GM and click on Chat, I get a blank screen. There are a couple of lines on the edges, and a chat command prompt, but there are no dice buttons or anything else. Is there anyway I can correct this problem. Any help would be appreciated.
I am running windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, my version of Screen Monkey is version 6g. Edited to add machine and SM information.

Try running SM as administrator. Its possible its having trouble writing files if being run as a normal user, and thus its not generating the html file for chat. You can also try installing SM into a directory outside of the program files directory.

I actually did both. I installed it into another directory, a directory outside of Program Files when I first installed it, and have run it as an administrator. I still get the same result. I remember a number of years ago, this was a problem that was addressed in the older Forums, but I cannot find them anywhere. I have updated the program to the latest version, and the problem persists. I'll keep checking the security settings. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Is there a box where you can enter in text and a 'say' button? Or just the border?

There is just the border, but there is a place to put in chat and a say button, but nothing else. Sorry I was so late, getting back.
