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

I like both these addons so I'd much rather they play nice together.
Most likely - it's a global pollution...

Any ideas?
Yeah, I guess my bugfix didn't fix it after all :/
I'll make more tests today.

Edit: I just checked, and it will take me a bit longer than I though to fix it.

Just a niggle.

Is there a way to just show 1 calendar entry for a profession cooldown. For example, when my alchemist transmutes an eternal, it shows the cooldown for every one on that timer. I know this is in fact accurate, but is it somewhat cumbersome to have to scroll thru all those to the next entry.

Like I said, just a niggle.

good to hear, otherwise awsome addon

Both accounts need to be fully populated before using the account sharing feature, meaning that yes, you have to login each character prior to sharing your data for the first time.

Also, account sharing goes only one way, and that's fully intended.



Timestamping is already working. And about the SV, no, you can't work around that, the game does not allow you to access any other account's information (this would be a massive security breach). There are tools that allow you to work around this at the operating system level, but I do not recommend them, nor do I support them.

Note that account sharing will get a big upgrade in the future. I'm already working on it, but it will take time.

..so i thought timestamping could work, if a characters info has a newer timestamp than u currently have, update, else leave it as is. maybe its already working like this and i just totally missed it, but it seems not to. sorry if this is a repeat post.

edit: after some thinking i figured the problem is with saved variables as it stores them with root set at accountname, any way around that?, cheer.

Sorry for the late reply, I've been quite busy these days.

It's not planned in the short term, but I don't discard the idea for the long run. Note for people who play on a PVE realm and who have characters on both factions, seeing both achievements (which have different ids) is meaningful, that's why it is implemented that way right now.

not sure if its been mentioned, and i might be wrong, but could u timestamp updates for characters in altoholic, i for instance have 2 computers i play on 2 wow accounts, sometimes i switch comps and while the account syncing is awsome, i read that the update is only one way, meaning i need to log into every charcater on every account on both computers, to stay updated, and or keep track of wich computer i was logged into wich character and wich account, sorry if my discription is bit poor, but u get the idea. so i thought timestamping could work, if a characters info has a newer timestamp than u currently have, update, else leave it as is. maybe its already working like this and i just totally missed it, but it seems not to. sorry if this is a repeat post.

@Tullia: See my answer right before your post, get the interim update on curse svn.

@Creatan: The problem is with Jobber, I spoke with Ackis, and he received similar conflicts/errors due to Jobber, same cause obviously.

@AnrDaemon: Fixed in the curse version too
