TamrielOnline uploader is a tiny tool which automatically send data to TamrielOnline.net in order to build a shared space for Elder Scrolls Online knowledge.

It should be used whith TamrielOnline addon which will be released later.

It runs in background and only upload TamrielOnline.lua from your saved vars to the concerned server.
It also write a log in the application folder itself (%APPDATA%\TamrielOnline) and update a lua file in your addon folder to be correctly read by this same addon (or others).


This tool is writen in C#, installer with NSIS.
It's only released here in order to detect bugs and force myself to progress in this project too much delayed (started more than a year ago).
This tool require .NET Framework 4.5 on your computer. It is automatically installed on Vista/7/8/10. If you are on Windows XP or have any issue, try Windows Update first.


I already noticed few bugs :

You need to click twice on Exit in the taskbar to close the tool
Sometimes at boot, program crash because it cannot acccess to the Windows Mutex (Access forbidden).
Software consummes ~15Megs in ram, but after an upload, it raise to 23Megs. I guess a var isn't cleaned. I know, 15Megs is a lot, but it's C#, not C++.


Please be indulgent for other bugs, I never coded in this language before
