A superb plugin! Thanks a lot for creating it!

One think I can't seem to figure out is how to trigger bars, e.g. my champion has a defeat response.
I created a bar, selected not visible and as trigger option "defense response". Unfortunately the bar does not show up when I get kill a mob which should trigger the defense response.

I am using a German client, so this might be caused because the "trigger" is named in German.

Does anyone have an advise how I fix this?

Thanks a lot

I hope you never stop this game, I depend too much on this awesome plugin.

Thanks for the support!

As to

1) I could make it so that you can use ANY key... but I wouldn't be able to tell you what key you chose. :P

2) Sorry, the API doesn't support hotkey functionality. I wish it did, it's the most requested feature addition.

That's the issue. What you need to do is go into the "/Lord of the Rings Online/Plugins/Tonic/TonicBars/Localization/German/Champion.lua" and correct the skill names. Send it to me when you are done and I'll include the translation in the next release.

Thanks. I've been playing now for 3 and 1/2 years. Don't plan on stopping now... although I don't get much game time while developing this... so I tend to do a little... spend some in game... then come back and do more here... I'm currently spending a little time in game.

Great plugin!

I can't seem to get the trigger for Idome to work either when active or when not active. The other triggers seem to work ok. Am I doing something wrong?

This looks like a great plugin and it looks like it would replace two of my favorite plugins that haven't been updated since everything broke on Nov 29th. However, I downloaded the newest version and when I login on LOTRO and type /plugins list, Tonic is not listed. It's also not listed in the plugin manager within LOTRO even though all of my other plugins are listed.

I read somewhere in the comments something about the new version not working unless you had installed the older one, so I also downloaded the next previous version, extracted that one into my plugins folder and then extracted the newest version again on top of it and it still just doesn't show up in my plugins list to load. I've tried loading it anyhow even though it doesn't show and sure enough it just doesn't exist to load.

Any ideas? I haven't run into this problem with any other plugins I've tried.

Thanks!

It sounds like you have things in the wrong folders. Does your structure look like this: "/lord of the rings online/plugins/tonic/tonicbars/"?

If you are not located in the US, you might have to tweak the /tonic/tonicbars/localization/<language>/Captain.lua" to match the correct buff spelling.

It sounds like you have things in the wrong folders. Does your structure look like this: "/lord of the rings online/plugins/tonic/tonicbars/"?

For some reason the structure got borked when I extracted the folders so it was /lotro/plugins/tonic/tonic/tonicbars/*. I figured that part out before I came here actually and got that working but I'm having another problem now. I was playing with the extension bars and I must have done something wrong. Now I have a bar definition that I cannot modify or delete. Any time I try to do anything to it, I get the following error:

...s Online\Plugins\Tonic\TonicBars\Bars\BarManager.lua :60: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)

It's defined as bar 6 if that makes a difference. I'm afraid I don't know much about Lua scripting, but if you can point me in the right direction as to what to delete to just get rid of the definition for bar 6 if that will help things I'm willing to do that and then restart my client to see if that fixes it. Or if there's a config file you wanna look at to code the debugging to check for whatever this error is, I'm happy to send that as well.

For now, it looks like my option is to just ignore that borked entry and work around it but I tend to be OCD and hate to have useless definitions just hanging around. LOL! But there's no actual bar on my UI clogging up space so at least that part is good.

Also, is there any particular reason why we can't put mounts on extension bars? I know you have pre-defined definitions for it but I don't' have all the horses in those sets yet and I want to make a random horse picker out of the mounts I own from the extension bars but when I try to drag a mount to them it tells me I can't.

UPDATE: Apparently the problem with Bar 6 is a bigger issue than I thought. I tried to add another quickslot bar and I get the following error:

...s Online\Plugins\Tonic\TonicBars\SettingsManager.lua :340: table index is nil

Alright, I found the problem. When I did it, I removed a Main bar that had extensions on it. The first time I got the error and the bar didn't remove. The next thing I did was reload my plugin and try to remove it again and it removed no problem.

One thing you can try is to remove your "The Lord of the Rings Online\PluginData\<Username>\<Server>\AllCharacter s\TonicBarSettings.plugindata" file. That'll also fix your problems.

I'll look into why that happened and fix it... (Extensions are a complicated problem). Thanks for the report.

I think I found the Idome problem. In Game it's with a small "e" in earth. I changed the lua to Middle-earth and it works.

NuclearTonic

Thanks, I'll try to get that fix in and tested for the next release.

I was getting this error [..s Online\Plugins\Tonic\TonicBars\Bars\BarManager.lua :60: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)] or very similar and started digging around in the plugin data file and found that one of my extension bars was linked off another extension bar. I'm not sure how I ended up doing that, but I did. I couldn't delete the extension bar (just got an error), nor could I manipulate it in any way. I ended up changing the data file so that it was off a main bar instead, and then was able to delete it (it was empty anyway). I was able to recreate the problem by trying to add an extension bar off an existing extension. It failed to add the bar, but screwed up the data file anyway.
Just wanted to give you a heads up.
Thanks for the great plugin!

I'm having this same issue now. I tried to make an extension off an extension and received a 135 error, but it created this bogus '7' extension bar. When I try to remove it, I get the 60 error reported. I'd walk away from it and leave the litter out there, but I'm getting 135 errors trying to legitimately add new extensions to the main bar now.

Could you tell me how you edited your data file to swing the rogue extension to the main bar and allow you to continue working?

notebene

Scratch that, I was able to find the data file and the orphaned bar and just delete it from the data file (while I was out of the game) and when I logged back in as that character, was able to start adding bars again.

Any plans to make the bars hide with the F12 "hide interface" function? I play with a plasma screen as a monitor and so to prevent image retention, I frequently shut off my UI when travelling, etc. (anything that doesn't require the UI). Tonicbars is currently the only plugin I have where it doesn't hide when I hide the rest of the UI. Thanks!

I'm sorry I didn't get back to you. It's been a VERY... VERY bad week personally... Well Pump died on the house, Snow plow hit the mailbox, Hit a deer on Friday and someone hit the wifes van on Sunday and totaled it (everyone's ok)... All in less than a week. So, I'll be back working on this stuff soon, but I have to straighten out a lot personally first.

Yes, this was working at one point and it was broken recently, I'll be fixing that soon. Thanks for the report.
