Altoholic

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:

Making a Paypal donation here : [email protected]
Make a gift from my Amazon's wish list : https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/3A2XOLZ09V2A8
Make an in-game donation (EU only : gold, BOE's, pets, mounts, ..) : Thaoky @ MarécagesDeZangar

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

You can work on it and send me an updated version by mail (see addon descr.). For all the translations that are not in that file, they're in one of the 4 libbabble libs, just give me the exact translations and I'll submit them on wowace.

Great ! Yes ! Ok, where is it ? ... Call me a noob but i'vent found a way to show an icon/info on Titanpanel for Altoholic, just the minimap button, that is ok, but a Titanpanel button would be great.

Thx for the tips.

It's in Interface submenu. Also make sure you have latest version of both addons. (3.0.008 Altoholic, 4.1.7.30000 for Titan at the time of post)

Did it partially... corrected the lockpicking name, but still shows my rogue has zero skill... have loged in with him to update, of course, and no luck. About first aid, there is no strings for first aid that i could change. Any other idea ?

Im a new user to Altoholic, running the european esES client.

Altoholics do not detect the current first aid skill on any character.... when every of them has some value. I detects the skill as zero and do not show the skill icon on the "Characters" tab to browse its recipes. Think is caused by capitalization of second word in esES clients... once localizated, the skills is called "Primeros Auxilios" in Altoholic, but its called "Primeros auxilios" (lowercase "a") at the default skills UI.

Plus, i've a rogue with skill 90 in lockpicking, but Altoholic says 0/0 on the tooltip shown when hovering with the cursor. Maybe a localization problem too, because you are naming the skill as "Cerrajeria" in esES language, but the word used by blizzard is "Ganzúa".

Please try to correct respective words in localization_esES.lua and see if that helps.

Finally, it is not about an error, but a wish.... i'd really really love you could integrate this impressive addon with Titanpanel

Surprize! - it's already there. Through provided LDB feed.
My only wish is to add tooltip to the launcher with information about trade cooldowns and mail/AH expiration.

Another wish is - if it is possible to detect the "Return"/"Delete" option in mail, show expiring mail that is about to return to yourself in yellow.

This was a little bug discovered rigth after releasing 3.0.008, but I fixed it and uploaded the archive again, you must have caught the file before I replaced it. Download 3.0.008 again, and you'll be fine

No need to clean the DB.

I'm not surprised, the changes mentioned in the changelog regarding this issue were implemented before I spent 1h30 with a friend on this issue (see a few posts below). I still keep an eye on it, but as I said, it will be hard to fix. Thanks for reporting though, it's useful to know that a change had an impact or not

Full professions links of all your alts, of all your guildmates (if they use Altoholic too), even when they're offline

Regarding stats, I second AnrDaemon and suggest that you use rating buster, it does the job quite well, and I don't want Altoholic to step on its territory

So if I'm looking at leatherworking items with my druid LW, I can make my rogue the "current comp char" and see what the rogue is wearing in the slots. (Granted that's contrived as I use ArmorCraft for that... but you should get the idea.)

But it's not a deal breaker - I don't do that all that much and the utility of Altoholic is pretty wonderful. Keep up the good work!

Try RatingBuster... although it works for current character only, it clearly show you what's this piece of gear is all about...

Other than that, I think it's a matter of taste

If there are things you'd like to see in Altoholic, let me know, I'm open to suggestions.
