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

Two guild banks bug

Hello again,

I tried to search for this bug to see if another had reported it but nothing jumped out at me.

I have my main guild and a "bank alt" guild on the same server same faction. Altoholic seems to gather all the bank data correctly and I am able to use the search feature to correctly search and find items in both guild banks but when I click on the "Guild Bank - Thorium Brotherhood - 1st listed guild" I can correctly see the contents of the guild bank and all guild tabs. When I click on "Guild bank - Thorium Brotherhood - 2nd listed guild" it does not show the 2nd guild bank data but just seems to click on the first listed guild again.

I have had a friend, that is in both guilds, try it and same thing happens.

Thank you in advance.

I love this mod!!!

THANK GOD someone made a special mod that shows alts reps. I would like to add a suggestion for the rep pane tho. It is very difficult for me to find a specific reputation since they are all listed willy nilly. Can the reputations be alphabetically listed so as to be able to find the specific one fast? Or maybe provide the major faction heading like they are listed in the original rep pane?

Asked so kindly, the suggestion just saw its priority increase

It's already the weekend over here, so I should make good progress in the coming days. I'll probably make a release on Sunday.

But things you already know don't change. You can't unlearn 1 recipe. I thought it used saved variables.

Events that have happened since last download: updated altaholic; scheduled maintenance. Would those things cause it to wipe the cache of info altaholic stores? If this has been mentioned before I just don't remember it, cuz i've read all 113 comments in your forums on wowi, i don't use any other addon site.
Hmm, can you be more specific ? What exactly did you notice ? Don't hesitate to PM me with your altoholic.lua, I'll give a look at this.

But just fyi, the only things I'm updating at logout are mostly character stats, but I don't update bags or known recipes for instance.

I would like to second the request to add the features from RecipeBook. That would make it perfect.

What Recipebook does is add to a recipe tooltip info like: "already known by <alt name>", or "can be learned by <alt name>", or "will be learnable by <alt name>", or "banked by <alt name>"... etc. It also color-codes the recipe icons accordingly though, personally, the tooltip info is all I need.

It also allows you to search what recipes use such and such items but you may already have that. Just started playing with Altoholic.
Most features are already there

- "already known by" = already there
- "can be learned by" = already there
- "will be learnable by" = not there yet, being worked on
- searching known recipes = already there, although there's a bug preventing enchanting recipes from being listed in .011 (fixed in .012, not yet released)
- color codes = not sure I'll implement it, but low priority anyway.

Hope this helps

Also, please set up a portal so we can post feature requests and bug reports.
I'm reading this thread on a very regular basis, you can post either here or on wowace : http://www.wowace.com/forums/index.php?topic=12308.0

edit: I just noticed that you were talking about a portal here on wowinterface, didn't know the CMS offered that, I'll look into it, very good suggestion


edit2: the portal is up, don't hesitate to use it to submit bugs & feature requests

Also I get this error if I hover over the character icons in "Account summary - Reputations"

Code:
[2008/04/28 17:10:36-2504-x8]: Altoholic-2.4.011\Altoholic.lua:1807: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)
Altoholic-2.4.011\Frames\Reputations.lua:94: in function <Interface\AddOns\Altoholic\Frames\Reputations.lua:86>
But if I go down to Equipment and hover over those icons first it seems to cache the characters and then the reputation ones also work till I close and reopen Altoholic.

Thank you in advance for your answer.
I'll check what's going on with fubar tonight. If it's critical, you can edit AltoholicFu.lua and remove the line with : AltoholicFu.hideWithoutStandby = true, that will fix it until next release.

Regarding the equipment/reputation frames, this bug has been reported but I can't reproduce it. I'm keeping an eye on it.

@R3dD0g: will check that, thanks for reporting.

@wilz: I'm not sure if Altoholic does everything Recipe Book does, give it a try anyway, you shouldn't regret it

@Perfeksion: not yet, it's on my list.

@clinic: I'm surprised you don't see the count in the vendor panes, the only case where the count is not displayed is when it is exactly 1, but I'm about to change this.

Fabulous mod!

Quick request:

Could you have the counts also show up in the vendor panes? Would be very helpful if I knew that a character had an item in a bank or something before I purchase it.

Thanks!
