Your Favorite Addon Manager, pros and cons?

The only addon manager I have ever used for eso is minion, and i think the program is kind of lacking in my opinion.
What are your favorite addon managers, why do you use them over others? what are the good things and the bad things about them?

✭✭My fav' addon manager is probably... Me. Well I handle all the version management.
That's not as painful as it could be with Skyrim / Morrowind / Oblivion, since you don't need to worry about transfering X files into Y repertory while backing up those in Z repertory, and use overwrite in the correct order.
Here, you just get to a website, check the list of addons you got, type the name, download all of those, copy paste, extract, overwrite.

✭✭Minion lacking? Exactly what is lacking? It allows multiple updates with one click. It allows predictive search for new addons. Installing and removing add-ons couldn't be easier. I don't need more features than this, since I want to play ESO, not Add-on Manager.PC/NA/DCBreton Sorcerer Maester.White - BB meets GoT >Master Crafter< { 9 Traits completed 4/23/15 }

everyman420Soul ShrivenOk So if minion is so great, why is it hanging up and not doing anything but spinning its wheels after I send it to look for the game and the addon folder. even if i point it directly at the addon folder it still can't find anything and I never get past the part where its configuring or tabulating the addons.
What gives?

✭✭✭✭Hmmm only used minion and it seems to like me so far.
Unfortunatly it only works on one server, so when I started playing EU, I don't get any addon benefits.
Maybe there is a way to 'fix' it, but so far I'm okay.Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.***Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis0 -

Sounds like you have a faulty installation. I've installed it twice, the second time on a new HD after motherboard failure. Both worked fine, none of the symptoms you describe. I would try completely removing the program and reinstalling. Don't forget the .minion folder in Users>Yourname.PC/NA/DCBreton Sorcerer Maester.White - BB meets GoT >Master Crafter< { 9 Traits completed 4/23/15 }

✭Me, myself, and my ESOUI RSS feed.
Is it honestly that hard to check up on the latest updates to your favorite addons?
Also lmao it's been nearly 18 months since ESO came out and Minion is still in "Open Beta"???Edited by Scyantific on 13 September 2015 06:350
