Thumbs up Simply Amazing!

I've been playing around with the latest version of Terrain Map!

It's like having a satellite view that you can zoom in and out on. "Google Earth" for LoTRO! I love it!

There is a known glitch in the zoom function that causes the map to zoom in/out based on the top left corner instead of the more intuitive center of view when changing zoom levels. This will be addressed in Ver 1.11 whenever that gets released. Ver 1.11 will also include the ability to zoom in/out (centered on mouse) with double left/right click.

Note, the Overview map is scaled to the screen so do not use the Overviews to compare different region sizes, instead use the x32 zoom level - depending on your resolution, Eriador may not all fit on one screen vertically and might require pasting two images.

Thanks for reporting this. There is a bug in the TMSearch.lua file. I will have a fix posted later today.

EDIT: The bug is squished, the file is uploaded and should be available shortly.

Glad I could help. I love this plugin. It has helped me in some hard places

I'll give you a hand and translate the items that google had transtated wrong/not accurate.
Code:
Resource[4][5]="Гараном загружено";
Resource[4][6]="Гараном выгружено";
Resource[4][9]="Лево";
Resource[4][10]="верх";
Resource[4][13]="Эриадор";
Resource[4][14]="Рованион";
Resource[4][15]="Загружать минимизированным";
Resource[4][17]="использовать маленький значок";
Resource[4][24]="Гондор";
Thanks for the translations. The next version of TerrainMap will include a Russian UI option that will hopefully work correctly Unfortuntately, the map tiles will still be limited by the client and will probably lag behind the English version a bit.

I suspect you are playing on the Russian server with the RU client. The Russian translation was never completed which left a number of bugs. You can edit main.lua and change line 111 from:
language=4
to:
language=1

That will force the plugin to use the English names but at least it will load.

EDIT:
If anyone would provide me with Russian translations for the English section of the strings.lua file I would be happy to at least translate the UI. Unfortunately, the search feature would still be based on English naming.
My rather clumsy Google translations are:
Code:
Resource[1]={};
Resource[1][1]="English";
Resource[1][2]="TerrainMap";
Resource[1][3]="Options";
Resource[1][4]="Language";
Resource[1][5]=" by Garan loaded";
Resource[1][6]=" by Garan unloaded";
Resource[1][7]="Save";
Resource[1][8]="Cancel";
Resource[1][9]="Left";
Resource[1][10]="Top";
Resource[1][11]="Width";
Resource[1][12]="Height";
Resource[1][13]="Eriador";
Resource[1][14]="Rhovanion";
Resource[1][15]="Load Minimised";
Resource[1][16]="Show Icon";
Resource[1][17]="Use Mini Icon";
Resource[1][18]="Map";
Resource[1][19]="Icon";
Resource[1][20]="N";
Resource[1][21]="S";
Resource[1][22]="E";
Resource[1][23]="W";
Resource[1][24]="Gondor";
translated to
Code:
Resource[4]={};
Resource[4][1]="русский";
Resource[4][2]="карта местности";
Resource[4][3]="Опции";
Resource[4][4]="Язык";
Resource[4][5]=" по Гаран загружалась";
Resource[4][6]=" по Гаран выгружен";
Resource[4][7]="Сохранить";
Resource[4][8]="Отменить";
Resource[4][9]="Левый";
Resource[4][10]="вершина";
Resource[4][11]="ширина";
Resource[4][12]="высота";
Resource[4][13]="Eriador";
Resource[4][14]="Rhovanion";
Resource[4][15]="Нагрузка к минимуму";
Resource[4][16]="Показать значок";
Resource[4][17]="маленькая иконка";
Resource[4][18]="карта";
Resource[4][19]="значок";
Resource[4][20]="C";
Resource[4][21]="Ю";
Resource[4][22]="B";
Resource[4][23]="З";
Resource[4][24]="Gondor";
Note I didn't even attempt translations for the regions Eriador, Rhovanion and Gondor and the map direction abbreviations for North, South, East and West (N,S,E,W) are probably incorrect. I don't have an RU installation currently and don't expect to have time to install one in the near future so I don't have any way to properly test the RU client.

Last I knew, another fairly significant concern is that the RU client runs a version or so behind the EN/DE/FR clients so a great many of the map assets will not be available to the latest terrain map client until the RU client catches up. A couple of map tiles have even swapped images/locations and will look a bit weird if viewed with an out of synch client.

Windows 8 Issues

Just got a new computer, and it's running Windows 8. I've decided to give the new OS a chance before I repave the thing and revert to Win7. So far, I have been unable to get this plugin to work. At first, LOTRO couldn't see the plugin at all. I finally found that the folder unzips as "GaranStuff", which seemed to be confusing the issue. I changed the name to "TerrainMap" and it allowed LOTRO to see both plugins (TerrainMap and TMSearch) on a refresh, but an attempt to load TerrainMap gets an error that says there's a problem with the file "TerrainMap.main". I don't know what this means, nor do I know if the problem is Windows 8 or the recent update. I'm assuming it's Windows 8.

Thought you'd want to know. Cheers.

Update: Well, that was stupid. By default, the 'Lord of the Rings Online' folder inside 'Documents' had no permissions assigned to it. Once I assigned myself permissions, everything worked without a hitch. I didn't need to change a thing.

The old LotRO web site had an interactive map which was actually a Google map (hosted by Google). When Turbine ceased publishing that map I asked permission to host one using the art assets from the game (the tiles used for Terrain Map) since the assets are 200x200 pixels which is the native size used by the Google map API. It would have been fairly easy to implement but unfortunately Turbine declined to allow me to use their assets (they are copyrighted with all rights reserved)
Hopefully they just didn't want their content piped through the Google Maps API. Otherwise I may be seeing a C&D coming my way.

It is a work in progress, so forgive me any shortcomings. I will continue to improve it as time allows. Constructive criticism is quite welcome.
