How do I show more than one quickslot bar at a time?

[~Maniac~]

Hi. I can switch between quickslot 1 and quickslot 2 bars, (I only have 2 quckslot bars with items on them at present) however I have seen screenshots where they have all their quickslot bars (up to 4 or more) up on screen at all times, plus some have some of their quickslots vertical down either side of the screen as well? I have checked various websites but couldnt see how to do this have all up on screen at once. I have had a look at UI, and quickslot, menus/configurations from the in game menu, but couldnt see anything there to show how to do it. I am not using the default UI skin, but another one - in case that is the reason? Can anyone help? Thanks

In the settings you can switch quickbars on/off, and dock them. I don't know if a non-standard UI will interfere with the normal setup though.

You could also install the plugin 'baruk' which gives you extra bars, that can expand/collapse and more. You can place them anywhere, and position them horizontal or vertical.

Great stuff. I know u can lock the bars, but I thought that was to stop you accidentally switching items by mistake. I will check the plug in too, and sit and mess around with the settings. I may change to default UI to see if that makes a difference. Thanks

There is indeed an option to lock the quickslots, which does what you say. Docking means they will stack in the bottom centre of the screen.

When you start playing around with plugins, I can recommend the 'LOTRO Plugin Compendium' ( http://www.lotrointerface.com/downloads/info663-LOTROPluginCompendium.html ), which is a tool to manage plugin installation/upgrade/deletion.

I use the following plugins:
Baruk (quickslots)
Hugebag (one unified bag)
Buffbars (visual buff/debuff tracker)
Daily task reference (task board checker)
Lotropad (server-wide notepad, useful for taking notes when playing a lot of alts)

Good luck!

I use the baruk to mount skills (lots of horses) and travel skills. Oreyos, with Update 13, they will change the inventory system and you will can have unified bag without this plugin.

LoL.... HugeBag is a "Plugin of the past" -- check out the Posting on the LOTRO U-tube site:

The point being -- the new U13 inventory system is pretty much "HugeBag".

But until U13 is live, I will use Hugebag, and I will recommend it as well :-)

Baruk is still useful, because you can create collapsible quickslots bars.

For some reason I couldnt get Baruk to work, or at least it didnt appear to be working, but I have downloaded the Compendium, and am using Buffbars, Daily Task, HugeBag, Lotropad, and Low Warn - and have it configured how I like it now, so thanks for the replies (still not sure what happened with Baruk but it didnt seem to work at all).

I don't know Baruk, but you can also try the plugin TonicBars to customize your quickslot bars. I use it for all optional skills, like mounts and travel.
