I've never tested with crossover, but my guess is you need to have crossover ensure proper .net framework is there.

I'd recommend installing the linux version (based on java)

Tried installing .NET Framework 4.7 in same CrossOver bottle as Compendium - got stuck on installation and didn't work.

Tried installing Mac version but got a Java error when opening app. Tried to install JRE 8, but didn't make any difference.

Maybe I'll have to give up

The main download is for java 11 (and will have that in zip name). There is alternate link if you are using Java 8. If your error is about jaxb library missing check which version of Java you Linux has activated. Java -version

Installed Java 11 and Mac version from plugincompendium-1.4-java11. Got JRELoadError when opening app. Should I download another version of Java?

java version "11.0.17" 2022-10-18 LTS
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11.0.17+10-LTS-269)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11.0.17+10-LTS-269, mixed mode)

That error can happen if you install Java via brew or other package service. You can either kick it off on cammmand line (see shell script provided for Linux) or install the official Java from java.com

Installing Java 8 from official .dmg file and using the installation for Java 8 did the trick! Thanks for your help!

Glad to hear it worked.. I'm not sure what is wrong with the other Mac java installs.. Possibly some kind of file association isn't done by default.

I have the plugin working on MacOS via Crossover. What I can't seem to figure out is how to have it import all the quests I have already completed.

I may be wrong, but I think you are posting on the wrong plugin. In fact this is NOT a plugin - it's a desktop utility program that helps with installation and maintenance and has no input for Quests.

Easy mistake to make as the names are similar:

"Lotro Plugin Compendium" (this one)
"Lotro Compendium Plugin" (the one I think you need)

Link to the latter: The Lotro Compendium plugin

Hope that helps - let us know if it does or doesn't!

Have had this problem for a little while now, not sure what caused it but it suddenly just stopped opening.
Installed, uninstalled, Checked if the .Net Framework was up to date (it is), no errors no nothing really.. i click to open it with and without admin and just doesn't open, any ideas?

C:\Users\<YOURUSER>\AppData\Local\PluginCompendium \PluginCompendium.exe_Url_5yhvvwnxpzhpb2gxk03ft5qz jaanyyjq <--- delete this folder (yours will have diff name)

Then relaunch.

For some users the config file is being corrupted. No clue what the cause is. Feel free to zip or sent config before deleting directory. I'm curious what might be cause

Are there going to be further updates with new content coming with almost every release?

Fatefoot

I think you may be referring to a different plugin. The LOTRO Plugin Compendium is a plugin manager which runs as a standalone application on the computer NOT like a plugin which runs inside the game.

As such, it keeps up to date because developers of new plugins or those releasing updates to their plugins register their plugins so that the Compendium can install and update their plugins automatically when you run it.

New game content affects some PLUGINS (although far fewer than you might think) but does not affect this program at all unless the devs change some fundamental code handling plugins which is extremely rare.

You must be referring to My other project lotro compendium without plugin in the name. (Yes in hindsight poor choice on naming). I do plan to do updates occasionally. Probably not every small release though

Few things that I would like to see if it's possible:

- remember the window size and the allocation between list and description
- increase the amount of text we can read of the description of the plugin

Beside of that, the tool is still awesome.
