LootLogs

Version: 3.0.2 | Author: Souru

LootLogs is a Lord of the Rings Online plugin that automatically tracks your loot lockouts across instances and characters. When you open a chest in a raid or instance, LootLogs detects the chat message and records the lockout — no manual input needed. A countdown shows exactly when each lockout resets.

Getting started

After loading the plugin, a small QuickLaunch icon appears on screen. Right-click it to open the main window. You can drag the icon anywhere on screen.

The main window has two panels:

• Sidebar (left) — browse lockouts by Content, Instance, or Character. Use the search box to filter.
• Content view (right) — shows each boss/event with its tier, lockout status, and time until reset.

To open the window from a quickslot, add /raid locks (EN), /schlachtzug sperren (DE), or /raid verrouillé (FR) as an in-game command.

Important: set your timezone

Reset times are calculated from UTC+0. Go to Settings (gear icon in the window header) and set your Timezone (UTC offset) to your local UTC offset — otherwise countdown times will be off. The default is UTC+1.

What gets tracked

Lockouts are recorded per character and stored account-wide, so you can see all your alts in one place. Use the Characters tab in the sidebar to switch between them. The Custom List lets you pin specific events across all characters for a quick overview.

Usage

QuickLaunch icon

A small icon appears on screen when the plugin loads. You can drag it anywhere.

• Right-click — toggle the main window open/closed; clears the badge count
• Left-click + drag — reposition the icon

A red badge appears on the icon and counts up each time a new lockout is recorded during the current session.

Main window

The window has a two-panel layout:

Sidebar (left) — browse by:

• Content — navigate content pack → instance → see all boss lockouts for that instance
• Characters — select a character to see all their recorded lockouts
• A search box filters the list as you type

Content view (right) — shows boss rows for the current selection. Each row displays:

• Boss name and tier
• Lockout status (Done, partial progress, or a completion count)
• Time until reset

Click a tier header to add or remove it from your Custom List.

Quickslot command

You can add /raid locks (English), /schlachtzug sperren (German), or /raid verrouillé (French) as an in-game quickslot command to open the window from your toolbar.

Adding New Content

All game data lives in Logs/English.lua (and the corresponding German.lua / French.lua files). To add a new instance:

1. Add an entry to _G.Content if it is a new content pack.
2. Add an entry to _G.Instances referencing the content index.
3. Add entries to _G.Events for each boss chest — set match to the exact substring that appears in the chest message, reset to the correct schedule, and tier to the tier label.

Reset schedules:

• Daily — resets every day at 3:00 UTC
• TriWeek — resets Monday, Thursday, Saturday at 3:00 UTC
• Weekly — resets every Thursday at 3:00 UTC
