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 didn't cut the error message, only the addon list.. if you want the full list of addons, that's fine... and I would agree with you, except I only receive these errors when Altoholic is enabled... here's a new one, it actually disabled my quest action items for the quest I was on, I had to disable altoholic and reload my ui:

Yet again: This is problem in Blizzard code, that it react to addons that have nothing to do with it. You may search for relevant function names in Altoholic, I'm sure even if you find them somewhere inside it's libs, they are not called. Altoholic just do not have anything to do with raid frames or what not.

I love this addon! Any chance you're working on displaying which bosses have been looted in the new LFR to go along with raid lockouts?

Thanks!

I cannot explain why in four days since I disabled Altoholic, I have had not a single error. I did a clean install earlier tonight with only Altoholic, and five minutes after login I got another error that points to Altoholic. That seems suspicious to me, and it is unfortunate because I really used to enjoy this addon.

Do me a favor - search for "blizzard raid frames lua" across this forum.
You'll find countless references, and addon coder's rants about hackery behavior of the blizzard raid frames.

It's extremely hard, if not impossible, to use search before posting... I know.

Hi guys,

I am currently working on the raid frame issue, and I am slowly making progress (hard since I have no idea where to look).

At least, I am now able to reproduce the issue.

What I can tell so far is that when no other addon is enabled, and Altoholic is running in its minimal configuration, namely Altoholic + DataStore + DataStore_Characters and only those 3 modules, I can reproduce the bug.
If I disable Altoholic but leave DS+DSC, the bug disappears.

This narrows down the field of research to the main Altoholic module.

Now, further testing is required to identify the exact cause of the problem, and that's likely to require a lot of enabling/disabling code, so I doubt I'll find the root cause quickly unless I'm lucky, so if some of you feel like lending a hand, you know where to search.

I will keep you guys posted.

I love your addon! It has helped me keep track of all my characters! I especially love the profession tracking feature. I've maxed all my professions now, and would love to provide a picture demonstrating it's usefulness for your addon page (with your permission)! (With an updated skills frame preview and all green colors )

First of all, awesome addon. It takes sooo long on my system to log out and log back in to another toon (even with an SSD) with all my addons. This really saves me lots of time when I just want to check a small thing on another alt.

I'm not sure if this has been already mentioned, but one thing I find annoying (and probably a bug imo) is how profession recipe data gets erased if you use the recipe filter (e.g. has skill up filter) and then close the profession window. Think about it - when do individual recipes get un-learned in the game? Never. Only when you unlearn a profesion or delete a toon would all get removed, and imo that definitely should be treated as a special case. I would rather clean it up manually than check my profession on another character only to find just a few green/yellow/orange recipies.

Issues

I just recently updated the addon, meaning that I deleted and reinstalled, since it was keeping data from a previous alt with the same name even after the alt was deleted from roster. Also now I'm having issues with alts showing up on the list at all...3 out of the 10 that I have are showing up. The other issue I have is that tool tips for items (weaps, gear, etc...) aren't showing up to say where something comes from. Has something happened since the last update that these were removed or has something royally screwed up on my end?

Sounds like your game client have a problem writing into your WTF folder.

I'm not sure if this has been already mentioned, but one thing I find annoying (and probably a bug imo) is how profession recipe data gets erased if you use the recipe filter (e.g. has skill up filter) and then close the profession window. Think about it - when do individual recipes get un-learned in the game? Never. Only when you unlearn a profesion or delete a toon would all get removed, and imo that definitely should be treated as a special case. I would rather clean it up manually than check my profession on another character only to find just a few green/yellow/orange recipies.
You can always use skills list to drop profession link into chat, if you are not sure if your search is right.
But I grew a habit of clearing filter before closing the frame at all times.
