Description

Description :
Let's pimp our messages in lotro with colors !

Change note 0.5.X - 07 april 2021

New color picker interface
Waved and Layered text can now have more than 2 colors (max 6)
You can now custom Ranbowed colors
You can now underline text with the Plained colors mode
Added buttons on the Plained colors mode to insert or remove tags
The configuration window can now be opened from the main window (no longer from the plugin manager)
Added an option to hide the closing message
Added /LFF to chat channel options, and reordered channels in the list
Fixed an issue with the MI and curstom channels
Fixed an issue requiring to click twice on the 'Send your message' button. This issue is because of the API : the button is not clickable if a text field has focus. The workaround is : the textfields will loose the focus if the mouse cursor moves over the 'Send your message' button
Fixed other minor issues

Your previous saved presets could be lost, sorry !
Thanks to Azruthor for his message and suggestions

I also just realised you don't have /trade as a listed option. This is the last regularly used channel I would add.

It could also be worth it to have a separate option where you can type in your desired channel, similar to how the IM works where you provide a name. For example, if I select 'Other' (or 'Custom' / whatever you think is suitable), I could then type into the box '/trade' or '/ooc'. This way you could have access to all of the channels without needing to have some of the infrequently used ones filling up the list.

By the way, the recent changes have been great!

Re: Re: Suggestions

After downloading the update, I seemed to have an issue that was reported by another user in regards to a previous version: I needed the warband slayer plugin created by you.

After I downloaded this plugin, the error was fixed, but I assume you would prefer to resolve the issue further.

Suggestions

I'm loving the plugin, but there are some improvements I would like to suggest:

1) Have an option to turn off the alert message that is posted in the chat every time you close the interface (just a minor annoyance).

2) Rainbow text option that is visually similar to how the layered/waves patterns look. The current one is rather harsh on the eyes and difficult to read at times.

3) Add /LFF to chat channel options.

4) Potentially add the option to have a layered/wave pattern of 3 or more colours rather than being limited to only 2. I'm not sure how difficult this would be to program but it would be a huge improvement for customisation.

5) Add/fix how the custom channel works. When I try to use the 'Cust. Chan X' channels I just get an error that states, 'PimpYourText ERROR: Please type a addressee !'. I don't see any way of providing an 'addressee'.

6) Fix issue that requires you to click on 'Send your message' twice to send messages (sometimes only requires one click but mostly requires 2).

7) Fix 'MI' channel to 'IM'.

As I said, I love this plugin and have been using it a lot, but these changes would make it perfect!

Breaks when using Layered colors

Hello and thanks for a very interesting, and possibly useful little plugin. I did however notice that in the Layered setup it puts the code in the text as well if you try 2 diff colors. If I set them both to the same color, it works fine, but 2 different colors breaks it for some reason.

Let me know if you need anything from me to help get this working correctly. For starters I'm on Windows 10, 64 bit Lotro client.

This plugin fails if you do not have Warbands Slayer installed, because it requires the files

WalmPlugins/WarbandsSlayer/resources/tooltip*.tga

The error message:

Online\Plugins\WalmPlugins\PimpYourText\Tooltip.lu a:49: Failed to load background image.

Hello Thurallor,
I just fixed this issue in the version 0.2.2.
For your information, the plugin works in French only : the user interface is on French, and the plugin use French in-game commands like /parler. It can easily support both French and English... I add that on my todo list
