Hello I can not move the window of the buff, it is located at the top left and I would like to move it, either with the SHIFT key, or ALT nothing works, thank you.

Thanks for asking! You can use your Reposition UI keyboard shortcut to move the MinstrelBuff II windows around. I've added screenshots to the Installation section of the notes above if you are uncertain how to do this.

Hey there! First of all I'm very happy that you took over the Minstrel Buff Plugin and revamped it. But I do have some trouble to load it. I've downloaded the most recent version via the plugin compendium, but it won't load. And there is no error message what so ever.

Is it possible that it doesn't work on german clients?

Addendum: Just tested. It shows up at the english client, but not at the german client.

A fix would be awesome!

2. Addendum: After testing in EN the Minstrel-Buff-Bar shows up at my german client as well. Very strange ...

Hi there! I do test the MinstrelBuff II plugin with French and German, but not as much as English. It's possible I missed something in this release. I'm working on the next release which will hopefully work even better, even on German.

Thanks for the update!

In Plugin Compendium the latest version seems to link to the old MB (1.9.1) and it will downgrade if you don't watch out.

Great catch, thank you! I think I have fixed all of the .plugincompendium file issues and uploaded 2.1.2 with those changes. Hopefully going forward this is no longer an issue.

Farothhen

It's so great you put out that update before you leave. Kudos to you! Have a good time!

edit: Plugin Compendium still shows 1.9.1 as the newest version.

Thanks! I wanted others to get a chance to play with Priority Anthems, and it was now or December.

Turns out LOTRO Plugin Compendium itself was getting confused. It should be good now.

Hail!

Thanks so much for this fantastic plug-in - I've been using it as new (again, after a 10-year absence) Minstrel to reallly get my Anthem game on point.

I still haven't figured out how to access options, I'm embarassed to say. In the Manage Plugins section of the player select screen, the Options tab remains greyed out for me. I have updated to 2.1.2. Is there another way to adjust Options, or is something configured wrong? I look forward to your suggestions!

Hello there! A plugin's options can only be accessed through the Plugin Manager while logged in with the plugin loaded. Select the MinstrelBuff II plugin on the left side of the Plugin Manager. At this point the Options will be available. Good luck!

Hello, thank you for this plugin I'm having a problem with the soliloquy ui element not appearing for me, do you need to be a certain level (45) or have certain trait (inner strength) unlocked for it to appear? I have tried hitting dummy in fellowship and casting SoS on myself and member and even though in options SoS tracker set to on its not appearing on my screen. Any help appreciated

b414213562

Hello! Since you already have SoS tracker enabled, you might try turning SoS tracker off and on again. Otherwise if should just work. What client language are you using?

I registered, I logged in, typed a whole long post about my problems, Submitted Reply, and . . . it refused to take my post and wiped it all out!

I use the Anthem Tracker (automatically loads for mini), when/IF it's there. The problem is, it often is just GONE. Is there an easy way to get it back, while playing, i.e. not having to log out entirely and then load the game again?

It seems to happen to me most often in BOTH Doom of Caras Gelebran and Sarch Vorn. If we wipe and have to start over, that's when I lose the anthem tracker. Sometimes its just gone right away, but others we restart the fight, then it disappears. Oh yeah, it also has happened in Houses of Rest, after a wipe. Hiddenhoard has not, SO FAR, been a problem.

Please disregard, see my Update below: I read everything here, found out there were options I'd like to try (after the disappearance of the Anthems Tracker is solved), but the options button remains grayed out for me. At the character selection, chose mini, chose Manage Plugins, choose MinstrelBuffs II, and . . . grayed out, can't choose Options.

Very frustrated.

ETA UPDATE: I re-read, more carefully, and realized I needed to log in, set a character for the Plugin Manager, and then that character would open it. I can now use the options key. Not choosing anything though, until I can get it to stop taking my Anthems Tracker panel away from me.

Hi there!

I'm sorry to hear that! After that happened to me on a few different websites I now try to compose longer posts in a text editor, and then copy/paste into the browser. That way I don't lose anything in the case of a glitch.

As you found out, a plugin must be loaded before the options panel will be available.

Is your "Only visible in combat" option checked? In this case, the plugin tries to hide itself unless you are in combat (or you still have active ballads or anthems). Sometimes it can get confused, however, so try playing with "Only visible in combat" unchecked.

You can always type /plugins unload MinstrelBuff into chat. This will unload only the MinstrelBuff II plugin. You can then type /plugins load "MinstrelBuff II" to load it without going through the Plugin Manager window.

It's not checked, but I will try checking and unchecking to see if that makes a difference.

If the check/uncheck doesn't cure it, then I'll try this. Either one of them will take less time than logging out and logging back in! I'll have to wait for an opportunity to try it, i.e. getting the "panel gone" issue to test it out.

Though, possibly, now that I've posted about it, perhaps I'll never have the issue again. My kin's other minis say they've never experienced this.

I'll try to remember to report back.
