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

kolaf A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 3 File comments: 2 Uploads: 0	Hi Thaoky, THis might have already been posted, but occasionally when I load ALtoholic everything comes up blank. I am able to Link professions from there, so the data is getting loaded. I deleted my savedvariables.lua and reinstalled the program but am still getting the issue. Any suggestions? love the program!

Programs, such as RecipeRadar. could benefit from this.

Also, to the loot tables. HAve you considered using LibPeriodicTable as alternative to reparse AtlasLoot tables for your own?

I don't have an extensive knowledge of all existing libraries, but all I know is that everytime I look for something specific, it's not in any of the libs I search. I recently looked into LibPeriodicTable to get rid of the recipe problem (reported as "could be learned by" when it's already known), but the info is not in there.

The actual problem, and I understand it, is that such libs require a lot of efforts, just look at what the atlas loot team has to put in to make it as valuable as it is.

Regarding the loot table, I reworked it manually because the table layout I'm using is more efficient for searches. It's also much easier to code a search using my table layout than that of AtlasLoot, and theirs also contain much more info than mine (like localized item names, item prices, etc..), which goes beyond the scope of Altoholic.

That said, if the whole thing turned into an efficient library, I would be happy to use it

There are a few things I'd like to finalize, but I think I'll try to get in touch with Daviesh & his team soon, to see if something could be done about this.

I agree

Almost all my guild uses it, and I really love the guild skills part. I intend to add support for offline members + the ability to search into the professions of your guildmates as if you were searching your own, it will be even better

Thaoky An Aku'mai Servant Forum posts: 30 File comments: 19 Uploads: 1	Perfect timing. I am currently working on this tab, and I already reworked the containers part. It's now a single entry in the dropdown menu. Don't forget that many of these sections are reachable by a simple click in the main panes, and that there's a right-click menu too. I do like the suggestion though, and I may gather some of the options as you suggested. Going to buttons instead of a DDM is an interesting idea, I'll make a few tests and see what's the best option. Thanks

AnrDaemon A Chromatic Dragonspawn Forum posts: 156 File comments: 2231 Uploads: 5	Just came up with idea... dunno if it easily achievable, but here some mind food: What if you implement character selection as column of character faces on the left side of Altoholic frame? You need place for nine buttons per realm, with 10'th button going to top-left as selected character face. Then leave realm selector as is and buttonize category selector. [Containers] [Conts All-in-1] [Equipment] [Auctions] [Bids] [Mail] [Companions] [Mounts] [Reputation] [Achievements] [Cooking] [1st Aid] [Prof 1] [Prof 2] Less clicks... faster browsing.

I think the most logical place would be under the Guild Members tab where I can view currently online guild members as well as my own currently online character and offline alts.

A "last seen" option to keep a history of guild members we've seen (and their info) instead of only showing currently online members might be nice too.

I'll see what can be done easily, I'm ok to provide some more information if it's available through the API, but quite honestly, my goal is not to replace the default guild frame

However, I intend to do something about offline members, so chances are you'll see some info about them too.

You can find the option into Options->Search.

I just tried with the latest version of Altoholic, and it worked

. I didn't have to check the option, it was already active... Though I wasn't on the same character this time.

I'll look again, I guess.

Also, the addon can only search recipes it knows, so make sure you have logged in this character at least once, and opened the professions as well.

Let me know if you need additional directions

The explanation is here: http://www.wowinterface.com/portal.p...=faq&faqid=322 I intend to review this in the near future, as I've learned a lot about the API since I coded this feature, I've thought about a few ways to circumvent it, and I'd like to test a few things.
