Addon Loader Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: r113-release

by: Ammo [More]

AddonLoader is an addon that loads other addons automatically, as and when they are needed, which speeds up the logon process.

Note that addons need to be aware of AddonLoader for this to work; if you see "X-LoadOn-..." tags in their .toc files, they are!

For documentation on AddonLoader and its use: http://www.wowpedia.org/AddonLoader

Amongst the supported addons:
- Most of Tekkub's Addons

- Mapster
- Most of Ammo's Addons

r113-release
- 4.0 compatible release

That is a Blizzard issue with LoadManagers, afaik. Not really sure there's anything we can do to get around it..

The issue is that the game client doesnt load addons if AddonLoader has them registered through the toc file and is then disabled.

Don't know if this is a bug or not, but here it goes.
If I am on one character and I have AddonLoader running, everything works fine.
But if I log out and disable AddonLoader, none of the addons that supported it loads.
This also happens if I just do /run DisableAddOn('AddonLoader') ReloadUI()

If I exit the game, start the game again and log in (with AddonLoader disabled) everything works.
If I then enable AddonLoader it works again.
And if I disable AddonLoader it all repeats itself and I have to restart the game.

I'm very confused by this :/

Re: Update for 3.3?

Thanks

The only change would be a one-line change to the table of contents file, which isn't necessary. If you're having issues, I suggest you check the 'Load out of date addons' checkbox on the addon selection screen.

There are no updates required for 3.3 with this addon.

Re: problem maybe

That is not an AddonLoader issue, it's an issue with one of the addons not properly supporting it.
