Altoholic  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

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:


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

Not trying to be a jerk but...

You keep somehow making the curse client UNINSTALL datastore addons when you update altoholic. Which of course breaks the mod by lacking dependencies. You did this with the last curse update and this isn't the first time, please QUIT doing that. LOL

Wait, I think it's my stupidity. Didn't noticed you're using two SV for DS_Talents.
Should really write a deployment script >.< Would be easier if Blizzard made TOC an XML file (Totally don't see the point why they didn't)

They were using latest version as well, and issue arouse, but your last couple alphas are working fine again.

- about the DS_quests thing, it's fixed in the latest alpha on curseforge.

Account sharing it is.

Noticed (erm, that's right word?) that DS_Quest spamming into tab1 with "DataStore_Quests: Quest history successfully retrieved!" after almost every questlog update.

Guild Sync Issues

Since your last couple updates Guild Syncing is no longer working properly, can no longer see what versions people are running and can no longer check their characters out, also is no longer grouping my alts together under the guildskills or guild members tab.

Others in my guild are having the same issues as well.


Great mod one of my all time favorites, keep up the great work.

Thank you the money is fixed this morning. Thank you for checking on Chilly.

Is there something I am missing to get the money updated? I even added some money to guild thinking that would help - it did not.

Also I own the Mr Chilly companion and the Icon for him is not correct - it shows what was on the page before you were looking at.

Just wanted you to know - Very nice Add-on here.
Thanks
