about:
Compendium is a Questing, Deed, Item, and Crafting database Addon for Lord of the Rings Online (LOTRO). It is meant to supplement the levelling process by making finding of quests, mobs, and items easier.
- Trying to find all the deeds you can accomplish in the Shire?
- Not sure what the prerequisites to a quest chain are?
- Looking for direction on a quest that is elluding you?
- Looking for all particular weapons and armor for your class and level?
Import your quest completion progress now using LotRO Companion data. See
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKNyPCkhMtk
All of this and more is possible with Compendium w/o the need of alt-tabbing from game! Through the in-game Compendium window, users can search and filter for items, quests, deeds, and crafting recipies.
Extend functionality by installing
Waypoint or
MoorMap by Garan. With Waypoint, an arrow can guide to to coordinates shown within compendium quest & deeds. With MoorMap, you can click coordinates from within compendium, and have them show up on the Map.
When upgrading, please delete old installation

First release
Installation & Use
1) Delete any older Compendium install from your Plugins folder
i.e.
C:\Documents and Settings\Lunarwater\My Documents\The Lord of the Rings Online\Plugins\Compendium
2)
Copy the entire Compendium folder into your LOTRO plugins folder
i.e.
C:\Documents and Settings\Lunarwater\My Documents\The Lord of the Rings Online\Plugins\Compendium
3)
Start LOTRO. Once in game type
/plugins load Compendium
Extensions API:
To create and have a seperate addon be loaded into Compendium you must...
1) Create a plugin file which has a plugin name that contains "CompendiumExtension" somewhere in the name.
Compendium will look for any addons upon startup with this name and load them (if needed).
2) The plugin file must point to a package whose lua class extends Turbine.UI.Control is some manner.
3) The plugin must implement a function GetExtensionName to return a value to be used as the name of the tab
Optionally you can implement the following if you wish additional capabilities.
1) Implement a SizeChanged event handler for your control so that it adjusts its layout when
pulled into compendium, and when compendium is resized.
2) Implement a "persist" function if you wish to persist any settings. This usually happens on unload of
compendium, but the timing of persist could change in future.
3) Implement a "destroy" function. Compendium will try to cleanup commonly stray event handlers etc..
If you have special needs for handling data cleanup, please add those here.
(Not implemented yet)
1) Activated & Deactivated events. I hope to add these in in next release. When your tab is clicked on
Activated will be called if you implemented it. Likewise for Deactivated if people move away from
your tab.
Vision:
The long-term vision is to have the player base of Lotro submit content for Compendium in the way of corrections, comments, coordinates, missing information, etc. In future releases, there will be a method for players to submit these changes.
Thanks:
- To all who have helped and offered feedback
- My family for their support.
Dedicated:
- My two nephews. I heard you were learning to program a little, and it made me remember watching and learning over my brothers shoulders when I was young. My hope is you can find the joy that I have, and have fun with LoTRO while you are at it!
