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

"In retrospect", it is good idea to add versioning to the DataStore database.
So that all you need to do is to notify the user, that "dude, the things have changed, and your stored data is no longer relevant. Please go ahead and revisit your chars."
May be it needs a clearer indication of what has been visited or not, too.
I was going over and over again on my chars, because I forgor Void Storage on my engineer (there's no ethereals in Gadgetzan), forgot to check professions on my auction alt (quite important, as she know alot of old stuff), and so on.
Perhaps, a new grid, with "Bank/Mail/Profession1/2/Cooking/First Aid/..." checkmarks and "last visited" info in a tooltip.

Can I be frank and self-revealing? *not in a sick way lol*

I didn't clear out the old Saved Variables info. Just did it and d/l the new file.

Here's my suggestion - Thaoky, you might want to put a large text statement on the main page about clearing out the MoP-era saved variables files. I only stumbled upon that when going to the Changes screen. In retrospect, I probably should have done that without a prompt. I am only just now starting to do that.

But it might help cut down on error reports that are generated from conflicting saved variables files.

I think SuicideKatt's 'Threat Plates' addon page does a good job of making it really clear to 'clean out yo' old junk, bro' before using the TPTP addon (as an example).

As always, thanks for your work! Indispendible addon for me.

I just noticed. Altoholic itself referencing LibStub, but doesn't include it (same for CallbackHandler-1.0).
I suppose it is drawn from DataStore, but again, this is not quite right.

6.0.004

Hi everyone,

Version 6.0.004 has just been uploaded and is awaiting admin approval. A lot of fixes and cleanup in this version.

Please check the following, as they were impacted by the options bug: many options were not correctly saved and thus some features were not showing as expected.

- Tooltip counters for items in 2 guild banks having the same name on different realms.

- Account sharing not working

- Expired mails: does this still happen on valid alts known by the addon ?

I'd like to get feedback on these.

Thanks in advance !

Thao

Account sharing is broken!

I love Alcoholic, I really do, but since WoD I haven't been able to get account sharing to work. Every time I try to share I get and error message saying that "Both parties must enable account sharing before using this feature (see options)". I have enabled account sharing on both accounts, I have chosen which items to share (everything), I have even set the toons to auto-accept sharing requests with each other, yet I still keep getting this error message. It is quite frustrating!

I've had an issue when 11'th slot was just added, the last character would not appear automatically in grids. Had to manually select her from "?" icon.
Do you see that your character in, say, activity tab?
I have been using Altoholic for about a year, and just recently, a week or two ago, it only recognizes 10 of my 11 characters. This seems related, though I didn't find anything that would help. I have gone so far as to delete the game and the folders to clear out anything possible, and it just doesn't seem to load on one of my characters. I have also, from the menu on that character, deselected and reselected the addon, which it finds for that character. Still, other than being in the addon list, for that one character, it is as if the addon isn't installed. When going into the addon list for options, it isn't there, and the button is gone, with no option to put it back. If anyone has any thoughts on other things to try, I would appreciate that. Otherwise, I would probably report it as a bug in the addon software. Strangely, the other 10 characters are using it perfectly, and it totals the materials I have for those 10, and doesn't seem to think I have an 11th character. It was working perfectly before, and all 11 characters have been on this account for the whole year.
Thank you
There may always be a bug in there, but in any case, what you can try to see if it detects the 11 characters is this: On the achievements or grids tab, mouse over the first (left) class icon, the menu there is different than the others, you can reset the list. It will try to find the 11 characters on that realm and add them. It will break the order you have defined, but you will see if the 11th alt is there or not.

Also, make sure the alt appears in the account summary, if it doesn't, something else is at play.

Scratch that. The error started to pop on all characters, once the clock went to Dec 31.
the only thing on the agenda is AQ40 reset for two characters.

Strangely, the other 10 characters are using it perfectly, and it totals the materials I have for those 10, and doesn't seem to think I have an 11th character. It was working perfectly before, and all 11 characters have been on this account for the whole year.
Thank you

http://www.wowhead.com/item=16251 doesn't show as known, even on character, that actually know it.
Could it be a conflict with TradeSkillInfo? (That one actually list recipe as known.)

Have loved altoholic for a long time now!

Was curious if it would be possible to implement either of these features. I am looking for a way to track all of the profession cooldown materials across my characters so I can see who is ready to craft something (taladite crystals, gearspring parts, truesteel ingots, etc)

1. the ability to create a saved search kind of like auctionator does. then i can just go to the search tab, pull up my search.

2. a harcoded section that displays those mats under the Trade Goods section or similar

Thanks!
