Altoholic

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:

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

Re: Re: Re: Re: Agenda error

I got the same error. One difference is that the error changed from "Altoholic-r193" to "Altoholic-r195". That addresses the version question too, maybe? Another change, because I logged on first with a character using few addons, is that KalielsTracker isn't in this bugsack.

Code:

2x DataStore_Agenda\DataStore_Agenda-r32.lua:368: bad argument #2 to 'strsplit' (string expected, got table)
[string "=[C]"]: in function `strsplit'
[string "@DataStore_Agenda\DataStore_Agenda-r32.lua"]:368: in function <DataStore_Agenda\DataStore_Agenda.lua:363>
[string "=(tail call)"]: ?

It says it is from WoWInterface and there's a new update to be installed. I haven't logged in yet today, will see what happens after the update.

Agenda error

I took the required steps when updating to this version. I deleted the Altoholic and DataStore directories under Interface and WTF then downloaded this. I've used WoWup to keep it up to date.

I have gotten this error a few times when logging on, including right now.

Code:

1x DataStore_Agenda\DataStore_Agenda-r32.lua:368: bad argument #2 to 'strsplit' (string expected, got table)
[string "=[C]"]: in function `strsplit'
[string "@DataStore_Agenda\DataStore_Agenda-r32.lua"]:368: in function <DataStore_Agenda\DataStore_Agenda.lua:363>
[string "=(tail call)"]: ?
[string "@Altoholic\Events.lua"]:443: in function `BuildList'
[string "@Altoholic\Events.lua"]:487: in function `Init'
[string "@Altoholic\Altoholic-r193.lua"]:324: in function <Altoholic\Altoholic.lua:318>
[string "=[C]"]: ?
[string "@!KalielsTracker\Libs\AceAddon-3.0\AceAddon-3.0-13.lua"]:70: in function <...s\!KalielsTracker\Libs\AceAddon-3.0\AceAddon-3.0.lua:65>
[string "@!KalielsTracker\Libs\AceAddon-3.0\AceAddon-3.0-13.lua"]:527: in function `EnableAddon'
[string "@!KalielsTracker\Libs\AceAddon-3.0\AceAddon-3.0-13.lua"]:630: in function <...s\!KalielsTracker\Libs\AceAddon-3.0\AceAddon-3.0.lua:615>

Also, maybe related or maybe not, the minimap icon displays. When I go to options, that option is unchecked so it should not show. I have to click it on then back off again to get it to disappear.

Posting here with some help: the problem is that there are multiple folders named SavedVariables.* The folder you need to look for is* .../World of Warcraft/_retail_/WTF/Account/######/SavedVariables * where ###### is a number that is the name of the folder for your individual account. If you have two accounts, there will be two folders named with numbers, which will be different numbers.* If you have one account, and characters on different servers, the SavedVariables folder will be mixed into the list of servers.* I had a bit of trouble finding it because I have characters on 3 different servers where the name starts with S, and my eye was skipping over SavedVariables when I scanned the list of folders.* Hoping this helps folks. Thaoky, if you want to take this info up into the description, feel free.* -Barleduq

Good thing I checked here before getting on to wow today!
-Barleduq

I don't think I will be reinstating patreon, but paypal is still there if you want to.

Ok! I was asking cause it's still listed on the front page of the addon, here, and I didn't want to be confused. (any more than I usually am.

Re: Re: Extreme confusion - no SV folders to delete?

Yeah, the problem is that there are multiple directories called SavedVariables and it gets confusing *which* one to look in. I've got it done now!

I just went to delete the saved variables. In the .../_retail_/WTF/SavedVariables, there are only two files - Blizzard_Console.lua and Blizzard_Console.lua.bak. In ../_retail_/WTF/Account/SavedVariables there is nothing at all. In .../_retail_/WTF/Account/(accountnumber)/SavedVariables - there are files. In the various Account/(accountnumber)/realmname/charactername/SavedVariables, there are not files under the name of Altoholic or Datastore.

I guess it's been too long since I did this. I'm removing the ones in accountnumber/SavedVariables, and figuring I have backups if that's wrong.

clearly I have a case of the dumb...
-Barleduq

Yes you just need to clear Altoholic* & DataStore* from the saved variables, as the format of the database has changed in a few places.
