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

at least that is what i have observed.

Erm... "it was not me, it was my leg".
DataStore is the information gathering/storage core of Altoholic.

well i realize that. i just thought i would point out that datastore is linked with the way blizzard's tradeskills display incorrectly. like i said, just an observation... 'don't shoot the messanger."

on another note, is there a way to re-order the character names as they appear in the tooltip? - it isn't alphabetical, not by level... just curoius.

i love your addon! thank you for all your hard work!

No idea, sadly. It is probably the order in which characters has been seen by addon...

Hi, it is simply the order in which they are stored in the Lua memory block, meaning it's completely random. Addons have no control on this, we simply have to code specific sorting functions if we want it to happen, otherwise it can be ABC in one session, and CAB in the next.

It is my goal to provide options for this in the future.

Thaoky An Aku'mai Servant Forum posts: 30 File comments: 19 Uploads: 1	Hello guys, 4.3.002 has just been uploaded and is awaiting admin approval. This update will be the last before a little while. No, the project is not stopped, but if you have followed my posts in the past year, you know time is an issue, and working on bigger features is almost never possible; this is why I have pushed back a lot of things. As Pandaria will soon appear on the horizon, I want to take the heads-up and start reworking a few things as of now, to prepare the support of new in-game features. But this cannot happen if short term releases get in the way (you do not want to see the state of WIP code, really ). Maybe the things I will rework will take less time than I think, and you might see "interim" releases along the way to 5.0, but this small sacrifice needs to happen, ideas are fresh in my mind, and I do not want to delay them too much, especially if they allow me to work in smaller time chunks in the future. The tabard pane I implemented in this release is a good example, it was coded in 2 hours, and my goal is to be able to decrease this time even further. As for the raid frame issue, I went a bit further in the analysis. It does well occur when the main module of Altoholic is active, and disappears when it is disabled. That said, I will insist again on the fact that Altoholic IS NOT guilty. When the problem occurs, I see in the eventtrace that 3 events named ADDON_ACTION_BLOCKED are triggered, and Altholic is obviously listed as the cause, but the functions listed are functions THAT ARE NOT CALLED BY ME. I could see that they are part of AceGUI, but in all honesty, AceGUI is not more guilty than Altoholic is. My goal is to further analyze some depencies in the addon, maybe break the addon into one or two additional submodules, and get rid of AceGUI in the end (it's not much used in fact). Release .. ? When it's done of course Many thanks for the continuous support, keep having fun with the game, the addon, and with everything you do in life !

Though it's already implemented.
Check with 4.3.002.
