Microsoft Comic Chat 2.5	Microsoft Comic Chat is a typical IRC chat cliet that will connect to any IRC chat server. What makes it a totally fun and different way to chat is that one can select to use a comic character and then chat in a 'comic strip' environment, rather than in just plain text! (Version 2.5 uses color characters and color backgrounds). (This installation file installs original black and white characters. One then must go here to update them to color)!	1.7M
5-Panel 6-Panel 7-Panel RegEdit	Registry Edit files created by Mermaid_Elizabeth to add 5, 6, or even 7 Panels across, depending on your screen resolution. Comic Chat can set to 4 Panels, but with today's wide screens, there's room for more! Each file not only sets the amount of panels across, but also the dimensions of each panel in order to best fit your screen! Mermy uses 6 panels with her resolution set to 1600 x 900, but if you are using your full 1920 x 1080, you can use the 7-panel regedit! Her eyes just aren't that good anymore for that high of resolution! Instructions are on the RegEdit page!	272 bytes

DIET_AVB Ver 0.2	Comic Chat v2.1 AVB Character Extraction Tool for older AVB files prior to version 2.5 A Japanese 'command line ' utility created back in 1996 by Shunji Haruki. Originally created by Haruki to solve a bug that the first 'Character Editor' put into finished .AVB files. Although Microsoft has since removed the bug, this program also works to separate all of the graphic poses from out of any (Comic Chat ver 2.1) AVB character. It works very fast! Many of the original mschat2.1 characters are posted on 'Y-Guy's' restored "The Unofficial MS Chat Add-On Site" web pages! ~Included in the zip file is a sample 2.1 file so that DIET_AVB can be tested!	45k
AVBuster Ver 0.1	AVB Character (& BGB Background) Extraction Tool for current version 2.5 AVB Comic Chat Characters Also extracts background BGB files! A ' command line ' utility written by an annonymous coder in January of 2014 who posted the 'buggy' raw code on pastebin Michiel Sikma, a Dutch programmer living in Japan, found the code on pastebin and proceeded to compile and debug the program. Having accomplished to perfect an exe file, he then made it available on archive.org in August of 2019 Place AVBuster in a folder of your choice as well as any .AVB and/or .BGB files you wish to extract. Command line example uses folder named '1': C\1\avbuster yourcharacter.AVB - OR - C\1\avbuster yourbackground.BGB There is no need to define an output folder. The program automatically creates a separate 'data' folder for each file extracted! NOTE: The original default MS Chat characters are of a different compression algorithm than what the Character Creator uses! Therefore they are not supported by AVBuster. You can get the original .AVS files here. Trick: Rename the .AVS file to .PNG and then open it in your favorite graphic program and see all the poses therein! Download file includes zlib1.dll in case your system may not have it already. Also batch files for 'get crazy' mass extractions! *Use 'DIETAVB" above* to extract the older 2.1 Character.AVBs**	47k
