Has any one found a replacement for Rockscroll or Metalscroll for Visual Studio 2010?
I miss it so much that I looked into making one my self but only have word highlighting working and a place holder scroll bar and seems to be much harder than I thought it would be. I'm happy to share what I got if someone is interested in helping.

Open Tool -> Options -> Productivity Power Tools, enable Enhanced Scroll Bar and restart your Visual Studio. Choose 'Full map mode' in the Productivity Power Tools->Enchanced Scroll Bar section. You should see minimaps in your Visual Studio now. Enjoy it!!!
Map mode displays lines of code, in miniature, on the scroll bar. You can choose how wide the map column is by selecting a value in Source overview. To enable a larger preview of the code when you rest the pointer on the map, select the Show Preview Tooltip option.
Add a vertical scrollbar.Set the Dock property of 'pnlScrollBar' to Right. Make sure that 'pnlScrollBar' is selected and click the Send To Back button on the Visual Studio toolbar. This is to give the panel precedence over the scrollbar docked to the bottom.
The Productivity Power Tools extension for VS2010 just added an "Enhanced Scrollbar"!
To enable the minimap go to Tools->Options->Productivity Power Tools->Enhanced Scroll Bar and check "Full map mode". Optionally you can assign the background color and highlighted region.

Just tried ProgressiveScroll and it looks and feels like the original MetalScroll; it also works in Visual Studio 2012!
