11.0.2

Altoholic

Version: 11.0.004

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

so any ideas how i fix this?

Have you cleared the saved data as instructed? Also, I'm not sure if 11'th character will automatically propagate to grids. You might need to pull him/her in yourself. Or, well, cleanup the DataStore saved vars, as instructed, and repopulate.

I still have bugs with achievements, and agenda, anyone found a patch ? I might check one of the other sites for ticket pages for it later. I just thought I'd ask.

Hi, this fix the problem

File: Comm.lua @ line 288
-- if UnitAffectingCombat("player") ~= nil then
++ if InCombatLockdown() then

Also, it seams necessary to uncheck and check again the share options to enable the sharing properly (or we get "both account must be enable...")

I would love to know which followers I have on my various toons, as well as the status of work orders and buildings. Also, I am unable to use account sharing...I continually receive a message saying both parties must have sharing enabled (which they do).

Nice workaround, ty.

But I have checked options on both/all characters, and sharing is enabled, the other char is set to auto accept, and what to share has all selected. Nothing I have tried works, clicking share with no target, clicking it with the other char targeted. Am I missing something?

jakgrant A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 5 File comments: 6 Uploads: 0	Re: Regarding Achievement module bug Errm scratch that well part of it. It still bugs out, but still I think part of the issue is probably due to all the char columns being ? and not being allocated on achieve tab or grid tab with a char name. I think. The achieve module bug for datastore that I'm certainly getting even after applying a char to each ? column of chars I have on the server is: 1x DataStore_Achievements\DataStore_Achievements-r32.lua:93: bad argument #1 to "band" (number expected, got nil) <in C code> DataStore_Achievements\DataStore_Achievements-r32.lua:93: in function <DataStore_Achievements\DataStore_Achievements.lua:90> DataStore_Achievements\DataStore_Achievements-r32.lua:185: in function <DataStore_Achievements\DataStore_Achievements.lua:164> DataStore_Achievements\DataStore_Achievements-r32.lua:208: in function <DataStore_Achievements\DataStore_Achievements.lua:203> <string>:"safecall Dispatcher[1]":4: in function <string>:"safecall Dispatcher[1]":4 <in C code> <string>:"safecall Dispatcher[1]":13: in function "?" libs\CallbackHandler-1.0\CallbackHandler-1.0-6.lua:90: in function "Fire" ...\DataStore\libs\AceEvent-3.0\AceEvent-3.0-3.lua:120: in function <...\DataStore\libs\AceEvent-3.0\AceEvent-3.0.lua:119> Locals: nil Bugsack addon reports this speicifcally: 1. DataStore_Achievements\Data_Achievements-r32.lua:93: bad argument #1 to "band" (number expercted, got nil) (x1) Which is the first line of above blocked text, so I'd assume one side of the equals in the following code isn't giving what it should be and blizz has changed the name of something, because this is what line 93 says specifically: local isAccountBound = ( bit.band(flags, ACHIEVEMENT_FLAGS_ACCOUNT) == ACHIEVEMENT_FLAGS_ACCOUNT ) So I'm guessing with two equats in there, Blizz could of changed bit.band or even achivement_flags_account vairable ? Just a thought. Could be isaccountbound. I mean they have changed some stuff to account bound recently, and also removed bop from some things, Spirits of Harmony jumps to mind. Hope I've been more of a help than a hinderance Last edited by jakgrant : 10-24-14 at 08:14 PM.

jakgrant A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 5 File comments: 6 Uploads: 0	Regarding Achievement module bug Okay I'm not versed in programming any more but sort of learning again, but wouldnt know what to look for in WoW code. Anyway I know pretty much what is causing the achieve module to bug out. On the Achieve tab in Altoholic. It's not applying the different toons to each column, they're all ? by default. If you change them all to ? it should stop Achieve module bugging out Oh and same thing for Grids. Not applying your toons to a said ? column, though I don't recall seeing Grids tab bug out. Though it seems what doesn't show up is under Grids, and clikcing mounts it doesn't show what mounts any toon has. Yeah I know mounts are a/c wide now, but it doesn't tick any of those boxes as to what mounts you have, but probably really unnecessary, given you can use mount tab in game to tell you what mounts you're missing or not, etc etc Anyway hope that helps the author a bit unsure look

So we're at 6.0.2 and altoholic is persistently displaying this error when attempting to account share between two accounts.

NameOfChar is in combat, request cancelled

I assure you, my character on my other account is not in combat.

I have tested some common sense things.

I moved to a different zone/city

I tried different characters

I tried character names without foreign accents, as typically I use them

I tried isolating the problem with no success

Also,

I highly suggest making the account sharing window something that can be minimized so I might be able to navigate through other panels or even move my character while an account sharing is in progress. Maybe due to bandwidth restrictions in lua you do this?

Thanks for your work and I'm glad you're already working on the new major patch
