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

Already in, it's in the Activity pane, when you mouse over an alt's name. This information will be moved in the future.

First, /macro
Second, you can't link more than one profession in single chat string without a risk of truncating it.

Sharing Accounts

First - I just downloaded this today and I already love it.

I do have a question though - I know you can account share between 2 accounts on the same server, same faction. I run into the issue where my main is a NE Druid, and my main alt is a BE Mage. Both are on The Venture CO [US]. Is there a way to share their information that I am missing? Or even a way to move the profile information from one into the altoholic information of the other?

Nothing special need. It is already available, just change the filters.
"This realm (both factions)" on Search and possible "All accounts" on Summary tab.

I tried this, but if I am on Account 2, which has Islana, it won't show Snowfeather, whom is on Account 1. Vco is a RP/PVP server, so there will never be a time where I can "Account Share" between them.

I also tried logging on to a server where both accounts had same faction chars, to see if it would share all of the stored char data, but it only shares that particular character. Am I missing something obvious?

Communication can only take place between players of the same faction, therefore account sharing suffers the same limitation, since data is actually sent through invisible whispers. If you had been on a pve realm, that would have been possible by simply creating a lv1 alt just for the sync, but on a pvp realm, it's simply not possible.

You can do it manually by editing your SV file, but it's extremely boring if you have to repeat that often.

This I will have to look into - I only want to do it for this one alt [Islana] and on her, for my main.

Suggestion

I have many alts and i love this addon ^^
Also I like "rested" system, makes me play less :P

My suggestion is, I think you can add a tooltip to rested percent info on characters, when mouse is over it, it could show something like that:

55%
Fully rested in 4 days 12 hours (18 days if not left in an inn)
on 29.05.09 4:00 pm
(or 05.29.09 it can be changed in options menu, also can change am-pm/24hrs)

Used holy guide to the WoW:

Thanks a lot for addon, even if you dont consider my suggestions

possible feature request

Firstly thanky very much for your hard work and i realy like the addon ..

im in a rather large multi guild "conglomerate " on a pvp server and ideally was looking into using Altoholic to share toon information between officers and trade skills among the ranks , but alas several of us also have "dont bug us" alts for when we need to do meetings or unwind ingame. witch brings me to account sharing and my question....

Is there any simple way to say, flag a toon to not be shared globally ?

stupid question probably but ide rather not have my hideaway toon broadcast to the troops but still would like to share my main toons .. hope that makes sense :>

dont stress it , its a wonderful addon was just wondering if this was already in there and im blind or if it would be relatively simple feature to add ...

Good suggestion, there's something coming in the next release that will give me flexibility for such things. Thanks
