Altoholic works in WoW Forever through a separate Forever edition. Its author, Thaoky, keeps it in its own GitHub repository, described as the WoW Forever version, and it has its own file on CurseForge. The latest release there was 1.60.005 from 14 October, before launch. Pick the Forever file, not the Retail or Classic one.
What it does
Altoholic remembers each of your characters and shows them together in one window:
- what's in their bags, bank and mailbox
- the gear they're wearing
- profession skill and known recipes
- reputations
- gold
Its search finds an item across all your characters, which saves logging in and out to find where you left your Copper Ore.
How it fills in
Altoholic only knows what it has seen. Log in to each character once with the add-on on, and open the bank and profession windows so it can read them. After that it keeps itself up to date as you play.
One computer at a time
Altoholic stores what it sees in your add-on settings on this computer. If you play on two computers, each keeps its own copy.
Pairs well with
- a bag add-on such as ArkInventory or
Bagnon for the current character. See bag add-ons compared. - Postal Community Edition or Postbox if you move items between characters by mail. See mail add-ons in Forever. Our mail guide covers the basics.
