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

This error only showed up when I updated to 3.2.003
The only other mods I run that use LibBabble-Boss are MorgDKP2, Altoholic, DataStore_Inventory, and ClassLoot.

I did some testing on my alts and running all 4 mods I get the error to show up.
MorgDKP2 and DataStore_Invent cause the error.
Each mod by itself does not cause the error.
Altoholic, DataStore_Invent, ClassLoot do not cause the error.

In the end it came down to DataStore_Inventory and MorgDKP2 that is causing the error to appear.

Would this come down to an outdatted Lib being loaded?

NB. I cleaned out all related savedvariable files relating to Altoholic and DataStore mods after updating and before loggin in for the 1st time.

Actually, it is caused by updated Library

They have removed this string for unknown reason.

If the issue is reproducible at will, could you make a test to see if this happens when altoholic alone is enabled. Presumably, it won't happen.
My guess is that there's a side effect due to the presence of another addon, and I'd love to find out which in order to reproduce and circumvent the problem.

Hmmm if its a mod interference issue that limits the possibilities. Three of my guildies (including myself) are currently having this problem, and the only mod we have in common (besides Altoholic) is Bartender. I have no idea why on earth Bartender would interfere to cause a mail issue, but I'll do some testing as soon as I get a chance!

This hasn't bothered me since I can easily account for it, but may help narrow down the error discussed in the last page or two.

Depending on what exactly you want to hide, there are mutliple ways to proceed. I'd suggest you to start by deleting the alt from the account summary (right-click -> delete). That will clear this alt's data from all datastore modules at once.

Maybe you should've read my post and you would've realised it was a typo and I didn't mean achievements. Horrible.

Thanks for the help Thaoky, I'll play around with it.

/run SendChatMessage("450 "..(select(2,GetSpellLink("Enchanting"))).." LFW","CHANNEL",nil,2)
/2 Blade Ward + Blood Draining
/run SendChatMessage("450 "..(select(2,GetSpellLink("Mooncloth Tailoring"))).." LFW","CHANNEL",nil,2)
/2 --- 4/4 ToC ----- 4/4 Uld ---

Just wondering how I'd need to modify it so that I can advertise both my 80s tradeskills no matter what character I'm on.

Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

Something like this should do, make sure to use the semi-colon to separate instructions, and use the variable 'link' in your SendChatMessage.

local char = DataStore:GetCharacter("Thaoky");
local link =DataStore:GetProfession(char, "Tailoring").FullLink

Hope this helps
