Hi, sorry for this post, but I am completely new to plugins in LOTRO. Ive installed this in a plugins directory that I created in document/The Lord of The Ring Online. However, I am unable to get the plugin to work.

Ive followed the directions here, but I am unclear on what the two items mean:

•Make sure the Turbine api examples are installed: link
•Optionally install the DragBar class: link

Where am I supposed to install the Turbine api examples? What are they? I downloaded the file in the link there, but where do I extract it to?

The error I get when trying to load the plugin is below:

..Online\Plugins\PengorosPlugins\BuffBars\Settings .lua:1: Unable to resolve package "Turbine.Utils".

...Online\Plugins\PengorosPlugins\BuffBars/__init__.lua:1: Failed to import package "PengorosPlugins.BuffBars.Settings".

..ngs Online\Plugins\PengorosPlugins\BuffBars\Main.lua:3 : Failed to import package "PengorosPlugins.BuffBars".

Thanks for any help

It sounds like you don't have the turbine stuff installed. Goto this link and install the basic example scripts.

Thanks allot fixed now! Great addon btw. Are you gonna make a quest addon next?

habu68

Thanks for the response. As stated, I did go to that link, downloaded and extracted what was there. I dont see anything to install, just a bunch of xml and html documents.
Thanks again

Nevermind...figured it out (duh). Thanks again

Great addon!

You can setup multiple quick slot bars, and slot different level pots in those bars, or even skills. You would still have to decide which one to use for wound/fear/disease/poison, but gives you multiple options. I do this on my LM, one bar contains curing skills and the other pots.

For morale/power I have my big self heal and power draw show up at a lower morale/power than the pots do, so you could at least setup your morale and power to show different pots depending on how low you are.

It is possible to do. I'll put this on the feature request list.

Not possible yet because the relevant debuff information isn't available to us. I will add the time thing to the features to add list like the pot cooldown thing.

I have some ideas on this so something similar to this may show up in a future version.

Pengoros

Captain banners are the same way. I'll see if I can add an option where you can specify a max time on buffs like these.

Pengoros

Yep this is a bug, thanks for finding it.

I saw this when we ran BG the other night too. I wasn't able to log the effect though to see what was causing the problem though.

Excellent work. One of my favorite plugins.

I believe I found a stange bug, however. I discovered this on my warden, though I haven't tried to reproduce with any other class. I put a stack of potions in the Quickslot bar. Then if say I had put 3 poison cure potions there, and use all three suddenly my leftmost button on the main turbine bar (the one w/ the main menu and all the other graphics) becomes unusable. It also appears like there is something in front of the button, however the tooltip shows the skill I just can't click on it (or it doesn't register it's clicked).

At first I assumed some other window in front so I used "/ui layout load" to load my last saved layout. When I do this, my leftmost button on the main turbine bar (hotkey 1, the one I couldn't click before) because the greyed out stack of potions I just used up on the BuffBar Quickslot Bar. I then have to go into my skillbook, find the skill and replace the greyed out potion in hotkey 1. This makes hotkey 1 usable again.

So it looks like something to do with running out of a stack of potions on the BuffBar Quickslot bar messing up Hotkey 1. This has happened multiple times... always same condition. i use the last of a stack of potions from the Quickslot bar and Hotkey 1 becomes unusable.

Thank you for this great plugin!

This bug affects all plugins using lua quickslots. Hopefully turbine will fix it in the next update. When this happens swapping hotkey 1 and 2 and then swapping them back will fix the problem without having to open up yours skills window.

Valdacil

Wow, that's a strange bug, Turbine. I'll have to test what you said. Thanks for the tip.

I'm now seeing this error:
"...line\Plugins\PengorosPlugins\BuffBars\EffectIt em.lua:258: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'timerWidth' (a nil value)"
then I get a message that i can't load the plugin. After that, every so often the same error comes up a few times in a row, like it's still trying to load? I had this working right after launch, but now I'm seeing this anytime I try to use it.

Hey Pen, love the addon from the vid but I'm having the same problem. I have buffbars in the addon list but I get the above error when I try and load. I unzipeed the folder from the link "LuaDocumentation" and put it in the "my documents/lord of the rings online" folder, however I still receive the same error.

EDIT: Not sure if it makes any difference or not but I was able to install and load the plugins manager, I don't know if it has any need for the API docs or not but that addon is working
