Change Log:——————–## 2025.02.05- Fixes, added documentationDescription:——————–LibTextFormatLibrary for Elder Scrolls Online Addons – Dynamic mail templatesAdvanced Text Formatting and ParsingThis library is to add advanced text parsing and formatting, suitable for use in any precanned communication.It allows addons to refer to variables in text, such as “{house}” which will output a formatted house link.It also enables addons to create “protocols” in which you can encode an object into text, then decode it later to get the object back.Reason for beingVanilla Lua text formatting is ok in simple circumstances, but it gets hard to read and tedious sprinkling lots of”hello”..GetDisplayName()..”how are you”..punctuation everywhere.Having filters enables much more readable text blobs, and allows you to pass around variables and adjust them as needed.Additionally protocols enable encoding of data structures, which is helpful for use cases, such as passing data programmatically between users of the same addon.Basic UsageSetupThe first thing LibTextFormat requires you to do is to initialize it with a saved variables “namespace” so that it can save filters and similar objects specific to your addon.First declare your saved varsMyAddon.savedVars = ZO_SavedVars:NewAccountWide(“MyAddon_Vars”, 1, GetWorldName(), {libNamespace = {LTF = {}}})Then initialize LibTextFormat with the object.MyAddon.LTF = MyAddon.LTF or LibTextFormat:New(MyAddon.savedVars.libNamespace.LTF)You can register custom filters either one by one or in bulk, with the function doing any needed processing and returning the desired substitution.Parameters are passed in sequentially and separated by a comma “,” in the filter, with the filter string being separated out by a pipe “|”.{greeting,name|mytag}Now you can also register “core” filters which includes the house filter, among others:MyAddon.LTF:RegisterCore()One…

Dynamic mail templatesAllows addons to generate preset mail templates and trigger email processing events. Pairs with LibTextFormat to create dynamic mail. Works with all platforms – leverages Event manager on console to populate send fields since directly opening the mail view is prohibited.

A small and simple add-on to hide the labels that appear above the compass. I don’t like how they look and prefer to reserve that space for more useful things like a DPS bar.The information below the compass, such as the distance to points of interest (POIs), continues to display normally.

This is an updated version of the original vAS helper from Brandii https://www.esoui.com/downloads/info3556-vASHelper.htmlI removed the lane placement’s as Elm’s Markers are now more efficient to use for the lane placements than using this old method. Defaulted zone jumps on for players to learn jump placements and where to safely stand. As the original addon hasnt been updated in 3 years i felt it safe to make a newer improved version to help with vAS. All credit given to brandii for the original code
