Version: 0.1

FCO Lockpicker

This addon depends on the following libraries:
LibAddonMenu-2.0
-> Please install this library like a normal addon to your "AddOns" folder (standalone installation), or use the Minion addon manager to install and update the needed library properly.

Do you remember that moment as you find a nice chest somehwere but then you realize that you don't have any lockpicks left in your pocket?
And the next moment some other player appears and loots this chest right in front of you?

This simple addon gives you the possibility to colorize the "lockpicks left" information that you see at the bottom line, if you are lockpicking a chest.
The colors can be changed according to a number of lockpicks that you have left in your inventory (threshold values).

The next chest you will lockpick will give you the visual information now, if you need to get some new lockpicks to your pocket.

In addition the addon is able to show you visual helpers during your lockpicking:

A green check icon will be shown each time a chamber of the current lockpick progress was picked and you need to release your mouse button!
You are able to colorize the lock's springs green as they get resolved.

But they can't unless you take the time to do the useless update to a txt file. Where 1 click of the user's fixes this.
So in the end it is useless. IF they would understand the reason and finally ignore the cause, just enable the checkbox, all are fine

ZOs should remove this addon version check, Imo. It does not tell anything about an addons "is it still working" state be only confuses the users.

I wouldn't really say it's useless. There's a lot of players who still do not understand that "Out of Date" addons are marked that because of the simple API number change that hasn't been updated and will keep from using the mod, as seen in the comments here where some folks ask why this isn't supported.

IMO, addons should try to avoid this confusion at all costs.

Just enable the checkbox "Allow out of date addons" ingame.

Just because a number comparison ingame says the addon is not updated, which is wrong, does not mean it is broken.

Each major patch the same stupid discussion, sorry, nothing against you, but this sucks!
If you want to show it as updated fix the txt file locally for yourself :-)
Or enable that simple checkbox and ighnore this stupidity of a check without sense...

Gotcha. Thought you would not be against someone offering to do the simple legwork.

Out of date is just a text comparison between the servers function returned value GetAPIVersion() (currently 100029) and the addon#s txt file FCOLockPicker.txt -> tag ## APIVersion: 1000xx

If the numbers differ the game says it is out od date what does not mean it does not work anymore.
Just change the addon's txt file tag ## APIVersion
to the current game's API version and it does not say it's outdated anymore (but it stil lcould be broken!).
Or just enable ingame in the addon manager the checkbox "Allow ou of date addons" at the top right edge and the game does not do this nonsense comparison anymore!

It's just a problem imo and does not check if an addon "is working or not" but only compares a text if it equals

And we are not able nor willing to update EACH of about 100 addons just because the APIversion changes, if everthing works fine.

I thought you had the addons in the wrong directory and thus updated them but the ingame addons were different ones, outdated maybe.

I'm sorry but I cannot tell you what to do else.
If the addon is not working with all other addons disabled, and it shows ingame with the settings menu properly AND the settings menu version is the one you see at www.esoui.com as well, then you eithr are cursed

or I do no know what to check else.
I'm very sorry.

I figured it out. What had happened is that when I originally had installed this I just installed it and it worked but the more I kept reading about this addon the more I started to think there may be settings now and sure enough there it was as the last item in the list for turning them green and it was off. As soon as I saw that I knew what was happening and I turned it on and I hit a chest where it worked once again.

Is there a reason this is listed as out of date?

For me it still properly shows the green check mark texture and it colores the springs green too.
Sorry, I'm not sure what's the problem here for you.

Are you sure you update the correct addons folder?
Are you using Microsoft OneDrive?
Try to search for the file AddonSettings.txt and find the AddOns folder below.

No it works flawlessly for me.
The needed library is linked in the descriptions: LibAddonMenu-2.0
Be sure you got this installed standalone and enabled as well.

I recommand using Minion addon manager (32bit version) to install and upate the libraries as well, just like addons!
Try to install and use "Votans addon list" as it enables automatically the needed dependencies/libraries for you if you enable an addon in the addon manager.

Does it work if you disable all other addons and only this addon + needed libraries?

If it works without other addons enabled try to find out which other addon makes this addon tos top by enabling the other ones once after another again.
Yuu can use an addon profile addon like Circonians Addon Selector to help you build test profiles.

Yep, Minion is what I use and I grabbed the library this needed but it just will not work for me. I suspect another addon I grabbed screwed me (for skinning the locks into wood) but even with the uninstallation (I checked the folders as well) this will not work. I am next going to uninstall this and reinstall to see if it will work now.

EDIT: I just did all of the above, including the download you mentioned, and I logged in and no go they refuse to turn green.

edit: As a last resort I removed the addons, and the saved variables, folders and did a game repair then reinstalled this addon and the library it needs but this addon just refuses to work for me any longer.

I am positive I had only the addons I needed installed and I do not use Onedrive.

edit: This is interesting but I turned on a about 3 addons plus FCO Lockpicker and I looked in that file you mentioned and here is what it showed:

#LoadOutOfDateAddOns 1
#Default
CustomCompassPins 0
Destinations 0
HarvestMapDLC 0
PotionMaker 0
HarvestMapDC 0
LostTreasure 0
HarvestMap 0
HarvestMapNF 0
HarvestMapEP 0
LoreBooks 0
HarvestMapAD 0
CraftStoreFixedAndImproved 0

Seems it only shows the ones I disabled for this test (all of those work though when I enable them). Remember I don't do these by hand I let Minion install, or uninstall, these addons.

I got it to finally say this

#Version 100029
#LoadOutOfDateAddOns 1
#Default
CustomCompassPins 0
Destinations 0
HarvestMapDLC 0
PotionMaker 0
HarvestMapDC 0
LostTreasure 0
HarvestMap 0
HarvestMapNF 0
HarvestMapEP 0
LoreBooks 0
HarvestMapAD 0
CraftStoreFixedAndImproved 0
FCOLockpicker 1
DressingRoom 1
BeamMeUp 1

No go so I wonder if this is only working for those that already had it installed and for brand new installs it no longer works? I am suspecting that is what is going on.
