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

Sorry to burst your bubble, but this is not he area of Altoholic to monitor your loot. Least, someone else's loot.
Not to mention, you're the first one to mention anything even remotely similar in years of addon existence.
So, find a problem in yourself.

You're wrong about your own loot, else it wouldn't know what's in your bags/bank etc. But I do agree about other people's loot, that didn't make sense to me either, however, turn on addon, lag, turn off addon, no lag. QED.

Fixed by completely deleting the addon and reloading it.

issue/request

one thing i would dearly love to have added to this fantastic addon would be the functionality of adding items to be COUNTED in the VOID STORAGE. bagnon does this now, but i much prefer the way altoholic counts items. *pleads*

thanks for listening. this is my absolute favorite addon, and i just wish for it to continue to be at its best.

Syncing two accounts. Errors.

Hi,
what am i doing wrong?
I try to sync 2 accounts, but more often then not, it fails. with errors like this:

I tried to completely remove altoholic and datastore LUAs and SVs
I also trying to stand side by side and use the TARGET option over the NAME option, since this "seems" to work better, but not allways.
Is there anything to that i can do to find my problem?

Thanks, besides I cant live without Altoholic, I have not found an alternative to two-account handling.

Altoholic and 5.0.4

Altoholic seems to be working mostly fine, which is good news. However I'm getting some errors from Datastore, and Datastore modules are sometimes blocking the activating of glyphs - maybe it is tainting something.
Thaoky, I hope you read this: are you planning any update?

I have worked on the beta, but I want to be sure things work on live before releasing.

So far, almost everything works, only tabards & talents might be disabled temporarly, the rest is working fine, and I also finally fixed profession scanning ! Hopefully, filters should no longer get in the way !

Release should happen Thursday or Friday, depending on life/work/etc..
Just thought I'd spread the word.

Thank you Thaoky!

This is my absolute favorite addon, and I wouldn't want to use wow without it. I realize updating it to the latest version of wow, is most likely a LOT of work.

I just made a donation. I appreciate all the hard work you have put into this for the wow community.

Thank you! Here's to an updated version of Altoholic!
