Hi Chiran, yes I can play them all just fine ingame.

They are located in the Music folder, inside the The Lord of the Rings Online folder where the screenshots are saved like you've stated.
The files are .abc too so I have no idea why it's not reading them. A head scratcher isn't it?

Thanks for helping with this mate.

Chiran

The Music directory should be in the same directory where your LOTRO screenshots are saved. So the full path is usually c:\Users\<YourWindowsUsername>\Documents\The Lord of the Rings Online\Music\ (it's a bit different with Windows XP). Can you play the files with normal in-game music commands (for example, /play songname)?

The feedback you get seems to point that the script found your Music directory but that it found no abc files.

Greetings all, this is my first time here and I wanted to try this out.

I'm having a problem with the songbook.hta file not reading or finding my .abc files. After I run the songbook.hta file I get this, "Generated song library. Found 0 song files in 1 directories."
All my songs are in my "Documents\The Lord of the Rings Online\Music" so do I need to place them elsewhere for them to be read?

I've checked the Chiran's Portal : FAQ but it didn't say where my music files should be moved to if that's the case. Looking forward to getting this to work.

Thank you very much.

Nice to hear! Looking forward to the next concert, and how the plugin pulls through .

It's on my to-do list . The idea is that you could paste song filename or part name to the chat using configurable templates.

Btw:
Is it possible to creat a copy funktion to paste the actually song into the chat.
Maybe only CTRL-C function?

Thx

PS: The folder option ist great!

Chiran

Hah, that sounds weird. I have to see if I can test this.

Ok good to hear . Just one thing, I think if you delete Songbook in LMM, Lotropad will be deleted too. I believe LMM 1.0.0 doesn't know how to handle two plugins inside one author directory. So hence waiting for 1.0.5 is recommended.

That worked, thanks. I didn't bother copying it back to the zip, I made the change in the extracted mods in LMM. The directories are cryptic, but it was easy to figure out which it was, as your two mods were my only two updates yesterday. Found song book, made the change there. Opened LMM and it had the proper name, enabled. Started the game it was back in the list for the in-game plugin manager, enabled, off and running.

Thanks for all the hard work!

Chiran

Sorry, that is correct . You need to open the lotroplugin.xml inside the zip file with notepad and change the name on line 3. (And then copy it back to the zip file.)

I will have to fix this, but the support for LMM is preliminary anyway since it won't properly work with 1.0.0 and 1.0.5 isn't out yet.

This update is loading in LOTRO Mod Manager as 'Lotropad', which is the same as your other mod. Tried renaming, but then I can't enable it using LOTRO Mod Manager.

Chiran

Good to know it's working . Favorites/bookmarks could be possible I suppose. For now you can use sub directories quite conveniently to categorize your songs. Some kind of a playlist could be done as well. Although it would be quite manual as you would have to click to play each song separately, so no jukebox i'm afraid :-/. Not sure what you mean with the chat feature, but at the moment plugins have no access to in-game chat channels.

Thanks for the suggestions!

favorites or bookmarks, a chatfeature and a playlist. than it would be perfect in my eyes.

Thanks for your work so far .
