2.0 (2024-07-16)

After 3 years, nearly 400 commits, and more than a few postponed features, 2.0 does seem to be out. Here's my best shot at a very high level overview of what's changed:

  • Almost all code redesigned and vastly improved
  • Robust support for any number of current, past, future🤞, and custom game versions
  • UI is resizable, uses system theme, and adapts to font size and color changes on the fly
  • Full CLI for new config system
  • aaaand.. mo-ore

Have fun playing some (two) games!

1.2.9 (2023-04-20)

Update game server certificates.

1.2.8 (2021-06-20)

Just a quick fix for the in-game store with the 64-bit client on Windows.

1.2.7 (2021-06-14)

  • Fixed getting the status of legendary servers
  • Downgraded SSL cipher level for game servers. Fixes connection for some Linux distros. Fix by @gtbX
  • Fixed no Keyring backend being chosen when program is compiled with Nuitka
  • Fixed window dragging on Wayland

1.2.6 (2021-04-29)

This release implements some important fixes for the addon manager and adds the --language launch argument.

  • Removed unused import
  • Re-enabled table headers that got automatically disabled in addon manager
  • Fixed addon manager UI breaking when OS text size is changed
  • Added launch argument to set the game client language. This was requested by @wduda for easier plugin testing

1.2.5 (2021-04-25)

This is a quick hotfix for the in-game store with the 64-bit client on Windows. The WINE version is also updated for Mac and Linux users.

  • Fixed in-game store issue on Windows builds with the 64-bit client
  • Updated WINE

1.2.4 (2021-04-16)

This release has some small improvements and important fixes. Most importantly the certificates needed for logging into LOTRO have been updated and a bug affecting the installation of some plugins has been fixed. Thanks to @mja00 and @gtbX for their code contributions to this update.

  • Support for the Win32 legacy client in the UI
  • Improved element spacing in the settings window
  • Updated WINE and DXVK
  • Added just in case check to stop plugin folder from being accidentally deleted

  • Updated the certificates for SSL connections

1.2.3 (2020-11-27)

  • Fixed language selection
  • Startup game selection with --game launch argument
  • Advanced usage section in README.md

1.2.1 (2020-08-07)

This release fixes some important bugs and allows developers to request a Python script to be run on every game launch. The user has to give permission for every addon that does this since these scripts have the equivalent power of an executable file.

  • Dynamic documents folder detection on Windows
  • Fixed .plugincompendium file finding on Windows
  • Switch to using game config values for game settings and log folders
  • Database is re-made if its structure doesn't match current generation code

    • Built in dxvk support (Lets directx11 get used with lotro and ddo)
    • Built in esync support
