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 just have to comment that this is one of the better mods Ive downloaded in a long while. I ended up deleting about 3-4 other mods because this one did the function of the others and in a much better way.

My hats off to Thaoky. Keep up the good work.

One issue I ran into: I left a guild but Altaholics kept the guild bank and I could not find a way to purge this data without editing the actual SavedVariables file (which in the end deleted all its data and I just relogged all my chars to refill it). Not a big deal, but maybe a way to purge a character's data.

I'll provide a way to delete data via the addon at some point, but as I was fixing a bug related to /gquit yesterday evening, I noticed that I could not simply delete the guild bank after a gquit.. simply because there might be other alts still in the guild (for whatever reason), so removing guild bank info will never be an automatic action.

In the lua file, there are 3 levels of data under a realm (they can be collapsed if your text editor supports this), one of which is "guild" and is the one to delete.

I'm glad you like the mod

Azayel, can you please tell me in which version you're playing ? This is a problem related to localization, you should not have it if you play in English, French or German, or maybe in German if the character is a female and the translation table I use for female classes is incorrect.

Regarding the armory, I'll install it to see what happens, but can you tell me more about what happened (if anything happened at all ..) ?

edit: I just installed Armory, logged a few chars, and both addons are running fine on my machine. I definitely need more info to be able to help.

Thanks a lot for the add ^^ and sorry for the wrong alert :s(ps: I play on french version)

I've found a slight bug with the reputation pane. It adds an additional copy of the list to the bottom every time I open the pane. If I open the rep pane, close the Altoholic frame, then reopen the rep pane, I'll see Horde, Horde Forces, etc, followed by another Horde section, etc. I do like what you've done with it though, it's much nicer than its first incarnation. Keep up the excellent work.

As an unrelated question, when can we expect to see this in the WoWAce Updater? I check it more frequently than I do here.

The bug you report is fixed in my version, I've been confronted to it 2 days ago, a small typo that prevented a table from being cleaned

Regarding WAU, I wanted to work on that last week, but didn't have enough time to play on the svn sandbox to make sure I didn't upload a crappy archive. It should be for this weekend though.

Regarding the second bug, this shouldn't happen, the addon is localized for the French version. I play on a French realm with an English client, but most of my guildmates play in French, and this bug wouldn't go unnoticed.

Did you try to enable/disable other addons to see if there's a potential conflict ?

some bugs with deDE

nice addon
im using it with deDE locale and altoholic doesnt show stats of the skills
"Kochkunst", "Erste Hilfe", "Angeln" and "Reiten" (cooking, first aid, fishing, riding)

you need to change:
["Secondary Skills"] = "Sekundäre Fähigkeiten",
to
["Secondary Skills"] = "Sekundäre Fertigkeiten",


and some typo:
["Characters"] = "Charaktäre",
tp
["Characters"] = "Charaktere",

Perhaps related to the post just before this one, when I mouse over the Expert First Aid book, it shows correctly which characters can learn it, which will be able to learn it, etc, but for the characters that will be able to learn it, it shows "Will be learnable by Character (0)" instead of their actual skill level.

I identified a bug in frFR related to secondary professions, I'll be debugging this with a friend during the day, should be fixed soon. Thanks for reporting

Edit: what profession does the character showing "Will be learnable by Character (0)" have ? and in which language do you play ?

@g3gg0: Thanks, I corrected these 2 entries.
