How can I play with content shared by other players ?
To play to player-shared content without waiting for a new version :
Download the script
Put the files in the directory : [Documents]\The Lord of the Rings Online\Plugins\YourOwnAdventuresScripts
Modify the file _ScriptNames.lua from the directory YourOwnAdventuresScript and add the following line:
import "YourOwnAdventuresScripts.
NameOfTheScript";
What are the limitations ?
This plugin does not create new content in the world of The Lord Of The Rings Online (places, characters, clickable items, ennemies…), nor does it allow your character to gain experience points in the game.
The YOA items in the plugin inventory and items from LOTRO are not compatible: YOA items are (obviously) non usable in-game, and game items are not usable in the YOA inventory (e.g. for item combination) .
The plugin cannot track the position of the character in real time.
Will there be future versions ?
That’s our goal !
The team is filled with ideas to add new features (such as XP gain, special effects, abilities, item buffs…), new adventures… and a couple of bugs may have passed through our tests.
We are also excited about what YOU can create to live tour own adventures!
