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

My friend found it in rating buster & atlas loot, but they're probably not the only addons that uses it.

I'll update shortly anyway, but in the meantime, this will solve your problem.
ok but i use about 100 ace addons so i've downloaded LibBabble-Inventory-3.0 on files.wowace , change the fr translation in the lib and it works fine.

@boutbout: Thanks for the feedback.

@Thorlin: There will be more fubar support in the future, I know this may not sound much, but I need time to learn the library and what I can do with, and time is what I'm missing lately

I'm trying to keep the pace of updates slow but steady.

@gothicknight: You're welcome

By the way, for those who want an update, an early .014 is available on files.wowace.com, it contains an updated loot table which is on par with AtlasLoot 4.05. It went from 9000-ish entries to 11000-ish entries.

hi,

for some reason, Altoholic's minimap icon started to move by itself to the right of the map... I think it happens at each login. I'm not using FuBar.
I mean that the position where I drag the icon isn't saved, or that something is overriding it.

version .014

Version .014 is on its way, I've been working on localization and it took me quite a while to get everything together. The next update should only bring a few new features, but the next ones will be more interesting

edit: .014 has just been released. Please let me know if you're having problems with specific localizations.

In fact for me (i use fubar and i am on french server) alto don't save any config
so it's not just the icon of alto where is going to the right but in the option window if i valid an option (all or just one is same result) when i disconnect and reconnect the options are all desactivated

prob on french version ?

all the version have this prob from the first release to the last

Equipment items not showing - solved

Don't know if this has been said but here it is.

I couldn't figure out why equipment items just weren't showing ( blank except for the class icon at the top) until I found that a recently deleted toon was still showing.

Delete toon from Alto by right clicking on name in account summary fixed my prob.

Hope this helps anyone else with same prob

A few people have reported this problem to me lately, and to be honest, I have no clue where to start

But to tell you a bit more about this, that part of the code is handled by ACE, and it has never been a problem for me, even in the earliest releases. And as far as frFR might be concerned, I'm french speaking myself (even though I play with an enUS client), and most of my guildmates play on frFR.. you can guess they're actually my beta testers for localizations

.. and anyway, this problem has been reported by people who play in enUS too, so I don't think it's related to localization, there must be a bug somewhere, and I'll make my best to find it .. I just have to find out where to start looking x)

Quests

Hello, and thx for a great Addon, I have experienced no problems what so ever, BUT.

I'd like to request an addition/change. (No idea if its possible though.)

When looking at quests in Altoholic, would it be possible to have a complete list of quests when selecting the server, instead of having to browse through all the characters seperately??

I hate helping a friend with a quest and then later find out that one of my alts had it.

Thanks in advance.

I don't think I will make a global list of quests, but I intend to add a functionality to see which alt is on a quest linked on the guild chat for instance. This should meet your expectation

Yes i had the same prob so
just to say there is not an isolated prob

another idea possibly to do :

if you know fubar_restfu : it concatenate the rest time from your alt like altoholic but there is another information it give ---> % of the level played ( plus a note if your alt has disconnect in a sleeping home but this is no more important)

(je ne savais pas que tu parlais francais alors je peux te dire que c'est un super add-on qui remplace pleins d'autre add-ons et c'est le meilleur add pour reroll que j'ai vu)

As soon as I find out how to hook quest tooltips.. i've been looking for how to do this lately, but I couldn't find anything. It seems to be using another tooltip than GameTooltip or ItemRefTooltip.. still looking :/

edit: I guess you're lucky, I just found out how I could do it, I'm almost done, it will be in .015 !

@Laumac: merci
