TOM - Tamriel Online Messenger  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 4.40
by: Sternentau [More]
This AddON is discontinued and no longer under development



Never miss an important message!


We all have discovered a weakness in Elder Scrolls Online... the ingame chat management.
Nearly everyone of us has missed a whisper because we were in combat or distracted by anything special.
Seconds later the chat has faded out or shifted up by messages (and spam) so we never take notice about.

This now comes to an end!
TOM - the Tamriel Online Messenger will keep your messages and set you on alert.

It doesn't matter if there is a whisper, a call from the guild or a party message that arrives... TOM will keep an eye to all channels until your return
Depending on your setup, TOM will open automatically or you will be noticed by a flashing sign if anything has happen while you was away - let TOM take the responibility not to miss anything important.

For guild masters and active guild members there are now many guild functions implemented as display status, jump to guildmember, mail to guild member and more other

Within the catacombs of TOM you may store Scrolls of your own text and post them to the chat - great for roleplay (or trade and mail)

Hint: For sure you will have to open or close TOM often in future - so i would recommend you to create a keybinding for this action (i would suggest the F12 key i.e). Guild masters would bind another key (F11) to the guild functions... and a third one for the catacombs?


What are the features?

At this time there is implemented:
- separated channel recordings (party, zone, guild)
- separated speech channel (say, yell, emote)
- separated tab for each whisper (one per person/account)
- self-prepared messages for roleplay or trade (catacombs)
- magic messages (dynamic channels with messages selected by keywords from ALL channels)
- every channel can be set to alert if a message arrives (default is whisper/party only)
- you may setup ToM to open automatically if an important message arrives
- TOM will close immediately if you are entering combat
- you may answer a channel by a simple click (answering via chat window because addons are forbidden to talk itself)
- messages will survive a UI reload or relog (even if you are disconnected by the server)
- resizeable window
- guildmaster functions now implemented within a separated guild function window
- display status, jump to guildmember, mail to guild member, whisper to guild member, dismiss guild member implemented
- all guilds separated shown in the guild functions window
- a target scanner and mail functions helps to simplify guild advertisements
- localized for german and english clients

(Someone will notice a similarity to TIM... yes, TOM is a smarter, completely re-coded version of this Pre-Orsinium Tool - enjoy)
btw.: If you was using TIM for a long time and there are thousands of scrolls within the catacombs... feel free to use the "/tom import" command to get this scrolls into TOM ;-)


I hope, TOM will be able to help and enthuse you
See you all in Tamriel!

------------------------------------------------

Dieses AddON wird aus persönlichen Gründen nicht länger weiterentwickelt


Nie wieder eine wichtige Nachricht verpassen!

Leider müssen wir alle eine besondere Schwäche von Elder Scrolls Online miterleben - den Chat im Spiel.
Beinahe jeder von uns hat schon einmal eine wichtige Flüsternachricht verpasst, weil er gerade im Kampf oder anderweitig abgelenkt war.
Einige Sekunden später sind diese wichtigen Zeilen verschwunden oder durch Spam nach oben in die Unsichtbarkeit geschoben.

Dies hat nun ein Ende!
TOM - der Tamriel Online Messenger bewahrt Deine Nachrichten auf und wird Dich alarmieren.

Es ist egal ob eine Flüsternachricht, ein Gildenchat oder eine Gruppennachricht eintrifft, TOM hat bis zu Deiner Rückkehr ein Auge auf alle Nachrichtenkanäle.
Je nach Deiner Konfiguration wird sich TOM automatisch öffnen oder ein blinkendes Symbol zeigen, wenn während Deiner Abwesenheit etwas Wichtiges hereingekommen ist - überlasse TOM die Verantwortung, wachsam zu sein.

Gildenmeister und aktive Gildenmitglieder verfügen nunmehr über implementierte Gildenfunktionen wie Status anzeigen, Sprung zum Gildenmitglied, Guildennachricht senden, Gildenmitglied anflüstern und mehr

In den Katakomben von TOM kannst Du Deine eigenen Schriften (Nachrichten) für das Roleplay oder den Handel aufbewahren

Ein Tip: Ihr werdet sicher TOM öfters oeffnen oder schliessen wollen - legt Euch hierfür eine Schnelltaste über die Steuerungseinstellungen an - ich empfehle z.B. F12. Gildenmeister werden die Gildenfunktionen an eine weitere Taste (F11) binden wollen... und vielleicht eine dritte für die Katakomben?


Was ist bereits alles möglich?

Implementiert ist derzeit:
- Getrennte Kanäle (Gruppe, Zone, Gilde)
- Getrennte Sprachkanäle (sprechen, rufen, emotes)
- Getrennte Tabs für jedes Gespräch (einer pro Person/Account)
- selbsterstellte Nachrichten für das Roleplay oder den Handel (Katakomben)
- Magische Nachrichten (dynamische Kanäle mit Nachrichten, welche über Schlagworte aus ALLEN Kanälen ausgewählt werden)
- alle Kanäle können den Alarm bei Nachrichteneingang setzen, wenn sie so konfiguriert sind
- TOM wird sofort schliessen, wenn der Spieler in einen Kampf eintritt
- Antworten funktioniert mit einem einzigen Klick - allerdings via Chat (da AddONs keine Nachrichten senden dürfen)
- gespeicherte Nachrichten überdauern auch einen UI Reload oder gar Relog (sogar, wenn der Server die Verbindung trennt)
- Fenstergrösse einstellbar
- Gildenmeister Funktionen sind jetzt über ein eigenes Fenster implementiert
- Status anzeigen, zum Gildenmitglied reisen, Post an Gildenmitglieder senden, Gildenmitglieder anflüstern und der Gilde verweisen sind jetzt implementiert
- alle möglichen 5 Gilden sind in den Gildenfunktionen separat gehalten
- Ein Spieler-Scanner mit Mailunterstützung helfen bei der Gildenwerbung
- Lokalisierung derzeit verfügbar für deutsch und englisch


(Einige von Euch werden eine gewisse Ähnlichkeit zu TIM bemerken... ja, TOM ist die elegantere, komplett neu programmierte Version dieses Pre-Orsinium Tools - viel Spass damit)
btw.: Wenn ihr tausende von Schriftrollen in den Katakomben abgespeichert habt - versucht das Kommando "/tom import", um diese nach TOM zu bringen ;-)


Ich hoffe, TOM wird Euch helfen und begeistern können
Bis bald in Tamriel!

Anyone else getting the "TOM> Unable to answer this group" error when trying to use messages in catacombs?

I've uninstalled completely and reinstalled, and turned every other addon I have off and I am still getting the same message.

Hey Sternentau,

please do NOT include the libraries like LibStub and LibAddonMenu-2.0 without their own txt files anymore!
Do NOT load the libraries from your addon's txt file "hardcoded" like that:
Code:
## OptionalDependsOn: LibAddonMenu-2.0

Libs/LibStub/LibStub.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/LibAddonMenu-2.0.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/panel.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/submenu.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/button.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/checkbox.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/colorpicker.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/custom.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/description.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/dropdown.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/editbox.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/header.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/slider.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/texture.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0\controls/iconpicker.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0\controls/divider.lua
The reason is:
If you are not able to update the libraries as they update, your included ones will always be loaded this way, even if their version is old, and this may break (already did in the past with other addons, especially with LAM2) other libraries with newer versions then.

Please do the following for your addons, which are using libraries:
Either do not include the libraries anymore into the addons so ppl need to download them seperately via Minion as if they were addons -> Best way as the libs can be easily updated this way.

2nd best choice is to include them BUT the total library with it's own LibStub.txt and LibAddonMenu-2.0.txt so the ZOs vanilla UI addon manager will read them, check their ## AddOnVersion: tag in there and does not load outdated/old versions anymore if the users got the libs installed with a newer version (by Minion as standalone or any other addon which got updated before yours is).

So please change your txt file to:
## DependsOn: LibAddonMenu-2.0

and remove all these lines:
Libs/LibStub/LibStub.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/LibAddonMenu-2.0.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/panel.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/submenu.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/button.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/checkbox.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/colorpicker.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/custom.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/description.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/dropdown.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/editbox.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/header.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/slider.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0/controls/texture.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0\controls/iconpicker.lua
Libs/LibAddonMenu-2.0\controls/divider.lua

And include the libs txt files in the libs subfolders!
-> LibAddonMenu-2.0 got the ## OptionalDependsOn: LibStub already in so you should not add this explicitly to your addon's txt file. As LibStub is about to be obsolete one should also not use it anymore, where you mustn't. Like use the global variable LibAddonMenu2 instead of the LibStub call.

This will make everything work properly for all addons again.

I've been wanting to set my own custom button instead of the default word bubble. I opened the lua file and found where the code reads th in game word bubble icon. I was wondering how to go about having it read an image from my computer instead. I have a clean word buble instead I'd like to use to fit in my UI a bit better.

No Support available???

I see that the add-on is being updated.

Yet, my question from over a month ago, was never answered?

I love the idea of TOM, but I can't stand two chat windows on my screen.

I would like to know if there is any way that the ESO chat window can be disabled if I'm going to use TOM.

How do you disable ESO's chat window?

I have just recently added TOM to my add-ons.

Right now I have ESO's chat window up and TOM. What am I missing? I don't want both up.

How do you disable ESO's chat window?

Servus Sorrieah,

sorry, there are no external message logs but the SavedVariables.

Too often when I am in a group during Wrothgar event, suddenly my PC is put into combat and TOM vanish. It would be great to see new messages in group as TOM work better then other add on to show this.

Thanks you.

Servus RexyCats,

hmmm... to keep TOM open in combat is an undocumented function and could raise side-effects, this is not tested yet. But if you are eager to fire one shot, you may try this by changing the corresponding variable.

First, locate and open the "tom.lua" file within your "SavedVariables" directory

Then find the variable closeInCombat:
Code:
["closeInCombat"] = true,
and change it to false:
Code:
["closeInCombat"] = false,
This should do the trick.

I never want it opened up unless I received a whisper or if I specifically opened it up myself manually. Any way to fix this so TOM will not be open when logging in?
