Ok I like yourselves I'm sure was getting extremely bored with Cultivating and have to keep the window open to wait for timers to run down to add the next thing.

Well Im sure this was posted before I just have to post this I cannot believe how much easier and more pleasant this has made cultivating. :p

Its an Addon called "Plantme"

Download Link:
http://war.curse.com/downloads/war-addons/details/plantme.aspx

It adds a Small box on your screen at all times which you can move you wherever you want Via the UI editor. It has 4 little Icons for each Plot and timers, When you click on an Icon it will bring up a list of all the items in your back pack that you can use for THAT stage of the plot so you don't have to did through your backpack anymore. So If your in the first stage you can click on the little Icon for the plot you want and it will bring up a list of all teh soils in your backpack and how many and what lvl they are then you just click on one and it puts it in the plot, you can do this with all the plots you have unlocked. Then say the next stage comes along and it will play a sound when the stage is complete well for the next stage it only gives you a list of things that you can use in that stage. Its freakin AMAZINGLY usefull and I don't know why it isnt built into the game.

Here is a screen shot of the little box Now remember you can move it anywhere you like (It starts out in the middle of teh screen) I put mine on the right side of the enemy health bar thing. http://img527.imageshack.us/img527/6774/furnapsm015bo3.jpg

Video of how easy it is to use: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vNBvyOTkEg


* You MUST have the "Libslash" addon installed to use "Plantme"
http://war.curse.com/downloads/war-addons/details/libslash.aspx


Plantme Slash Commands:
/plantme show - Shows the addon
/plantme hide - Hides the addon
/plantme sound - Turns sound on or off
/plantme minlvl - Sets the minimum level of items in the item lists (default 1)
/plantme maxlvl - Sets the maximum lvl og items in the list 0 means your crafting lvl (default 0)
/plantme help - Shows help
/plantme soundnum - Sets the sound to play when cultivation stages change (default 215 "quest completed")
/plantme playsound - Plays sound with the given number so you can browse sounds to find 1 you like.

Installation Instructions from the addons page:



Exit "Warhammer Online" completely
Download the mod you want to install

Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".


Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!

Windows

Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
WinRAR (http://www.rarlabs.com/): Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
WinZip (http://www.winzip.com/): You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed




Verify your WAR Installation Path
That is where you are running WAR from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
Move to the Addon folder

Open your Warhammer Online folder. (default is C:\Program Files\Warhammer Online\)
Go into the "Interface" folder.
Go into the "AddOns" folder.
In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder


Start Warhammer Online

Translations

When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of WAR. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".
Directory Structure

Warhammer Online
|_ Interface
|_AddOns
|_*AddonName*
|_ *AddonName*.mod
|_ *AddonName*.lua
|_ (possibly others as well)...


Note:
Also When you First start the game you have to open your Original Cultivation window once to sync the Plantme addon.



Like I said I know this has been posted but I cant help it I love this addon on so much it has completely changed the way I look at cultivating now and Its not something that I hate doing anymore.

I hope you find it as usefull as I do.

Downloading it now.

Normally I just sit back and browse the forums when I've got 50+ seeds to grow, but this seems to be much more efficient ;)

*edit*

Holy sh** this is convenient. I effing love how you can plant, add soil/water/nutrients and then harvest without ever having to open your bag or that godawful window.

+1 totally straight sparkling rainbow lasers for you. My AM approves.

I tried that too, but if you check the screen shot all my folders start with "EA_", so the folder I made was "EA_AddOns" but didn't work, it was like I didn't have the addons :?, thanks for replying though.

Could have been as simple as a Capitol not supposed to be used or something. Try making the folders without the Ea_ ..

interface is in all lowercase.
and addons is all lowercase as well.

Alright I got it working, I made a new Interface folder and a new Addons folder. The addon is amazing, it makes cultivating much easier and fun. Thanks.

I downloaded these both, and installed them with the folders that had to be created as mentioned by others. When i login in game, i do get the PlantMe addon to show, however i don't get the use of the libslash command, both are within the WAR Online/Interface/AddOns/(addon name) im assuming this is correct, as one addon is working just fine...

Any suggestions??

I downloaded curse client, and it had installed that addons into the user/interface/all characters/... the servers are down now, but i do notice there is a LibSlash folder in here, maybe from curse client... waiting for servers to come up again to test :)

Downloaded and installed this but nothing showing in game and slash command comes up unknown command. Checked the folder and the only thing in there is a 1 kb mpeg file. Tried redownloading it but this is all I get. Anyone else haing this problem?

10-06-2008, 11:08 PM
Rhyssa, did u use curse client to find and download PlantMe? Try doing it manually, the addon should still work, but the slash commands is where my problem occurs...

I have the client downloaded and working. I'm having a problem with it harvesting and starting a new cultivation process. Is there anything I can do to fix that?

Bobfromfpl22
10-07-2008, 03:02 AM
Skrag, do you have the slash commands working fine? If so could you state what you did, where you placed folders, ect? As far as the PlantMe addon goes.. You need to open up your cultivation for it to sync up for the first them, then you'll be good to go.. also I noticed anytime you join a scenario, you are required to open up your cultivation screen again for it to resync. Im assuming this has something to do with the loading screens and it losing sync... hope that helps =]

Does this still work with the new patch.. This is one of the only add ons i can't get to work on my shaman... I dunno

You can't install it through the curse addon as the writer put it in an rar file instead of a zip file. I downloaded WinRar and it unzipped just fine. Previously I was using WinAce and it would only find the .mod file which appears as an mpeg file. It's now working great and I love it as much as everyone else :)

p.s. WinACe has now gone to the trashbin, I'd recommend WinRar to anyone who doesn't have it already.

Umm, I just installed it tonight and it's worked great for me except for bugging out a bit when I changed zones. Maybe if you say what's wrong someone might actually be able to help you.

Btw, whoever made this I love you. Exactly what cultivating should have been from the get go. Too bad you don't work for EAMythic.

I tried cultivating for the first time last night. Boy did it seem lame. I came to these forums to see if I was missing something... this AddOn looks like the answer.

Still don't understand why the devs would implement a base UI that was so not fun. 2 minutes of doing nothing but staring at a UI to click a button every 40 seconds just to grow one seed?!? Sheesh.

This AddOn certainly makes Cultivating way better but you don't actually have to watch the seed grow in any case. Also, additives are not necessary either. They just reduce growth time and increase the chances of Criticals and "Special Moments." You can just plant the seed, close the window and go on about your merry way.

IS anyone else having problems not being able to use Libslash, but PlantMe addon is still working?

I had a lot of problems getting plantme to work but I finally figured it out.

This was my problem:

I downloaded LibLash v 2.2 and PlantME v 1.0.1.

I made a folder in:
C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning\

called "Interface" and a folder inside called "AddOns"

C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning\Interface\AddOns

Inside the addons folder i put the downloaded Liblash folder and the plantme folder there (the ones i downloaded in a zip file) and fired up WHO.

Once i was inside the game i wanted to see if the liblash plug in was correctly installed so I typed /addon and pressed enter. the liblash menu did show up and it showed me that PlantMe was installed as well, so I knew something was up. the plantme window showed up in the middle and i could not interact with it. I used the GUI editor to move it where I wanted it and tried to mess with it again. But to no avail. I couldn't interact with it.

So I kept breaking my head trying to figure it out, and then it happend. I just opened my abilities menu by pressing V and choosing cultivating. then it gave me control of the plantme plug in.

Weird but it worked for me, and now i'm leveling Cultivating like crazy. This plug in really does work and it's bad AAAAYYYYSS.

HOLLA!

I cant get either Libslash or plantme to work at all. I have done everything in the above posts as far as directories and crap go, but its like i dont even have them. I put them in C://program files/electronic arts/warhammer online - age of reckoning/interface/addons

both folders are unzipped in the addons folder.

In game i tried /plantme show and /addons to turn them on and it says they are not vailid commands. So im lost.

Ok I took some screenshots and here's how my directories look. The only difference I made was that I took the source files of the plantme directories and copied them from the source folder to the main plantme folder. you'll see in the screenshots.

but having this configuration works for me. i dont know why it doesn't work for you. :(

HOLLA!

This is exactly why you need to do. PlantMe often resets, leaving the box in the middle of your screen and unable to interact. Just open your Cultivation window and PlantMe will recognize how many plots you have available and allow you to start using it. The usual UI editor lets you move it to a better spot than the middle of your screen.

Also, sometimes if your PlantMe window how been previously hidden /plantme show will not work. Simply type /plantme hide even though it obviously aready hidden and /plantme show will work again.

Generally speaking Plantme is working well and is a great AddOn.

I can't get the sound to work at all, and various other commands give me the same reply in game :

"An error occured with the supplied slash command - please report this to the addon author:
[string "Interface/AddOns\PlantMe\Source/PlantMe.lua"]:112:attempt to index global 'ChatWindow' (a nil value)

Was a patch just last night so could be related ... i just loaded PlantMe this morning

But if anybody has any ideas or similar problems, let us know

Cheers

From the comments on the curse page for this plugin:

to fix the "attempt to index global 'chat window' error

open up Plantme/Source/PlantMe.lua
Search for ChatWindow.Print(towstring(line)); at line 112
Change to EA_ChatWindow.Print(towstring(line));

Or you simply download the latest version that will be all fixed and install it by going to the website directly and doing it yourself or you can let the Curse Client do it for you.

Any time any of the addons stop working properly, I simply select the addon from my list and "update addon"

Ah, Thank you very much sir.

After DLing and using your plugin Today, I was aghast at how well this plugin works. It is extremely useful.

Suggestions

Auto-sync with the Cultivation table
Some sort of pop-up indicating that the next stage has begun
Bigger buttons for choosing your additives and Harvesting your plants
A similar addon for apothecary


Thanks for the plugin!

Except that this plugin isn't registered with the Curse client, and the newest version on the Curse site still has that bug. It's a quick fix, but going to Curse will only help you if you read the comments and edit the files yourself.

That being said, the fix that's posted in the comments (and in this thread) work like charm - I think. I haven't been able to find a seed, lately...

As I was finishing this post, I found a seed XD Addon works perfectly.

How do I move the PlantMe window?

It doesn't show up in my curse client, even though it's installed and working.

I used the Layout Editor ingame to move the PlantMe window.

This addon is pure genius, thank you!!
