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

In the very first release, I had not packaged the addon correctly, this caused the addon to be in a directory called "Altoholic v2.4.001", but it seems that wow doesn't like the space in the directory name, and could not show the addon in the list.

I checked the last package (.012b) to make sure, and it's clean, so make sure you unpacked it well and that the directory name is simply "Altoholic".

Hope this helps

Unfortunately no, it doesn't

Ok, now I dit this:

Quit WoW.
Edited the Altoholic.lua file and deleted my juwelcrafting / enchanting char completely. Saved the Altoholic.lua file.

Deleted the Addon folder for Altoholic. Installed the V11 version.

Start WoW. Scan all tradeskills. Visit the AH.

Result: Everything is fine, Altoholic doesn't report for known recipes that they are learnable.

--

2. try:

Quit WoW. Deleted the char from the Altoholic.lua file, save the file. Delete the Addon folder, install V12.

Start WoW, scan all tradeskills, visit the AH.

Result: Altholic states that every already known recipe will be learnable.

My conclusion: V11 works in this case, V12 not?

Regards,
Highend

Excellent suggestion, I'll implement it

edit: @Naranjar, thanks a lot, I'll try those colours.

Getting to the data faster

This is a suggestion. At the moment, to see the items in the bank, you'd have to click 'Containers', then 'Servername', then 'Charactername'. Which takes one too many clicks.

If the front page summary of Altoholic can be made clickable, one could click the container summary text (the one where it pops up information when mouse-over-ed) and go straight to that character's bags.

Also, perhaps a setting, "Show this server only" and "Show this faction only" might help in removing an additional click in a lot of the functions.

Thanks for adding the option not to read mail (and thus make it grey, which was driving me mad. Ok, almost.) I see that BeanCounter (from the Auctioneer suite) also reads mails, but "recolors" them afterwards... It's not problem-free either since mail you've already read is often marked as unread, but I find it less of a nuisance for some reason.
1) removing "could be used by": I'm releasing .012 in a few minutes, this is not in, but will be in the next version.

2) I haven't tested the gquit, but I'll make some tests as soon as I can. It must not be much.

3) the option not to mark mails as read is already in, it's called scan mail body or something.

hope this helps

Or maybe provide the major faction heading like they are listed in the original rep pane?
The reputation pane is currently being redone, and will look like the genuine tab, I can't say when I'll be done, but I hope to make good progress on this today.
