Altoholic  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 10.2.007
by: Thaoky [More]

Hi, my name is Thaoky, and I'm an Altoholic

Altoholic is an Ace 3 add-on written for people who dedicate most of their time to leveling alts, and who want to have as much information as possible in one place.


IMPORTANT NOTE:

I am back in the game since 28/12/2020.

If you are upgrading from a version below 9.0.003, YOU MUST CLEAR YOUR SAVED VARIABLES !!

This means cleaning the following files in \WTF\Account\<your_account>\SavedVariables : Altoholic.lua & All DataStore*.lua



About the add-on:

The add-on has been in development since December 2007 and was officially released in late March 2008. It provides you information about your alts (bags, mails, AH, etc...) without having to reconnect them all the time.

Supporting development:

You might not know this, but add-ons do not write themselves.
If you want to help development, or simply show your appreciation, use one of the following ways:


About the author:

I was born in '76 (you do the math) and I work as a Project Manager + Software Architect + Full Stack Web Dev (yup, multiple hats) in a large multinational, so my coding time is limited, and Work > Gaming.

I live in Belgium, and obviously play on EU only.

Assistance will be provided on a best effort basis, but in any case always be polite and respectful when asking for help, I am neither a teenager, nor a punching ball. I am a cool guy with people who are cool with me. Respect that rule and we'll be fine.


Availability:

2020/12/28: I am back in the game.

Current Issues:

2020/12/28: Due to Teelo's actions, I have reverted his changes and resumed development based on my latest version of the code. Some of his new features are temporarily not available anymore, some are gone forever. The main Shadowlands features will be back though, just be patient.

Credits:
  • I'd like to thank my guild, Odysseüs on EU-Marécages de Zangar, for assisting me since the earliest phases, thanks guys for everything you've done
  • Thanks to the all the people who have supported the add-on since 2008, and also all those of you who came on board later.
  • Thanks to all the guys who have helped with code/translations/bug tracking.. and well, project support in general, especially during my long absences. Such projects can be long and tedious, it is good to not feel alone

Join the #altoholic IRC channel on Freenode : irc://irc.freenode.net:6667/

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR 8.0 : As with every new expansion, many things have changed in the API, and it is REQUIRED to clear your Saved Variables for the addon.
This means cleaning the following files in \WTF\Account\<your_account>\SavedVariables : Altoholic.lua & All DataStore*.lua

There WILL be bugs if you use your old files without cleaning them first.
Some fixes to work around API changes are too time consuming, so cleaning is required. A meagre price to pay once per expansion.

How to support Altoholic's development :

- Use the donate button either on Curse or on WoW Interface
- Support me on Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/Thaoky , the page is still being setup, it might take a few days before it can be used, I still need a banner.
- Make a gift from my amazon's wish list : http://amzn.eu/7xWdnbZ

If you like the addon, consider supporting it, this has been the long term effort and commitment of a single person. #OneManArmy

@Darigitin: I don't think I'll do that, I don't see it as functionally correct to state that guild money is part of a player's belongings. (ie: by including it in the totals).

@Hinomiko: Feats updated in the latest version.

@ahua: The library I was relying on to offer this feature has changed the way it worked, so I need to make further tests before re-enabling the feature.

@AnrDaemon: It hasn't been worked on yet, I had an horrible month of September irl

Guildmate's recipes were not searched since patch.
Of course, I checked "include guild members professions".
Anyone know anything about this problem?

Sorry for my bad English..

The DataStore spam can be fixed by updating it from here : http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-a...datastore.aspx

Let me know if you have other issues.
It's quite possible that there's just something about the steins that something, presumably a library file, someplace doesn't like since they seem to affect so many add-ons. I'll try downloading the DataStore files you mentioned and see if they solve the spam issue.

The LUA errors I can simply suppress for now since nothing seems to break. I have noticed that even the stein cool-downs are not being displayed properly. I may have to actually try a"vanilla interface" and see if that helps.

Hi,

I was just wondering, would it be possible to add "A Brew-FAST Mount" to the Feats of Strength that are tracked in the achievements? I was hoping to use Altoholic to track which alts still need a Brewfest mount, but this feat of strength doesn't seem to have been added.

For those of who have guild banks for storing items and gold, would it be possible or is the option already in place to where you can add the guild banks gold to the total displayed on account summary? Thinking this might be handy, otherwise thanks for all the work and for the great add on.

I've also been getting other LUA (interface) errors, about 12 in all with regard to other addons when drinking the steins. The DataStore errors are the only ones show outside of the LUA error.

I have currently disabled the showing of LUA interface errors in WoW and all is quiet now except for the mini-spam. For the record, I'm an Alliance dwarf running on an english client. I also am drinking with two steins (two-fisted drinker) because I can.

I have last year's blue stein and this year's green stein. I have to click on the brew barrels twice to fill up both steins. I dragged and dropped the filled steins from my character window to my button bars in Dominos like I've always done before. So it's click the barrels twice to fill, click each stein on the Dominos button bar to drink it and see the spam as I drink each one. Refill and repeat. Not game breaking or all that annoying considering that nearly everyone else on the server is there at Brewfest. So much text is flying by that it scrolls off-screen in no time.

The other has to do with the deletion of guild banks. The error upon deletion is gone, but it doesn't seem to be properly deleting the banks. They stay in the guild bank list dropdown despite having been deleted. And if you select one of the deleted banks, you get a depiction of one of your other valid banks (main vault, not the tabs).

Not huge, but annoying. Thanks for the great work.
Hmm.. First, i'd need your SV files too : thaoky(dot)altoholic(at)yahoo(dot)com. Please mention the issue in the mail.

About the calendar, I fixed this in 3.2.002, but you need to reconnect the alt AND open the calendar (to clear the db and scan only future events). Let me know if it fixes the issue or not.

I'll make further tests about guild bank deletion.

Re: Data Transfers & Professions questions

Is there a way through the "All" checkbox to setup all toons to easily only share specific things? For example, If I'd like to share only the Trades, Bags, and Achievements from all my toons, is there any easier way than going through each toon one by one?

My other question is about Tradeskills. Is it possible for Altoholic to color known recipes in the AH that any toon on that server already knows? I know there are other addons that have the ability to do that, I'd just rather not use multiple addons for similar things.

Thanks for a great addon
I like the suggestion about the account sharing, it will be part of the next review I'll make on the account sharing feature.

AH coloring is planned (almost ready, code is commented actually), but I need more time to finalize it.

Altoholic error
Not triggered by Altoholic unfortunately, but I commented the line in the latest version of datastore:

1) Is a bug the /played msg written three times at log in?
2) Could you redesign the inventory and bank bags to allow sorting them? For example: the keys bag is show before the last bank bag now. I would to see the keys bag after the last inventory bag. And another feature I would like is the bag slots resizing to allow justification.

Now I want thank you for this amazing addon, this is the best I ever seen!
1) The only way to read the /played is to trigger the event manually, and several addons may do this at login. Altoholic is only doing it once.

2) I'd like to change the inventory too, or to be more accurate, add other views (like I did with the all-in-one), but it's not for the short term.
