Overachiever2

Overachiever2 is a modern reimagining of the legendary achievement tool, inspired by the original Overachiever addon.

The original version has been discontinued. To bring its essential functionality back to the modern game, I have completely rewritten the code from the ground up. This isn't just a patch; it’s a fresh start built for the current World of Warcraft.

Development Status: Early Access

Please note that Overachiever2 is currently in active development. While it does not yet contain every single feature of the original, I am working hard to implement them and add even more.

Current Status: More features will be added continuously through regular updates.

Currently Implemented Features

• Enhanced Achievement Tooltips
  • No more opening the massive Achievement UI to check your progress.
  • Full Criteria Listing: Shows all requirements/criteria directly on the tooltip.
  • Series: Displays the entire series of related achievements in one view.
  • Parent achievements: Display its parent achievements.
  • Tracked Achievement Tooltips: Added tooltip support to achievements currently being tracked.
  • Chat Link Tooltips: These enhanced tooltips also work when you hover over achievement links in the chat window.

Known Conflicts & Compatibility

As Overachiever2 modifies certain UI elements and tooltips, you may experience minor issues when using it alongside other tooltip or UI addons.

• TipTac (specifically TipTacItemRef): Clicking an achievement link in the chat window may cause the popup tooltip to appear slightly distorted or broken.
• idTip: When hovering over achievements in the main Achievement window (Y key), idTip's information may overlap with Overachiever's tooltips.
  • Solution1: In the Overachiever2 options, change the anchor type of the Achievement Window tooltip to resolve the overlap.
  • Solution2: In the idTip options, disable the 'AchievementID' and 'CriteriaID' setting to resolve the overlap.
• Prat 3.0: When hovering over achievements in chat, Prat's tooltip overlap with Overachiever's tooltip.
  • Solution: In the Overachiever2 options, disable the 'Chat Links (Hover)' to resolve the overlap.

What’s Next?

I am committed to expanding this addon. Many more features from the original version—and brand new ones—are planned for future updates. Stay tuned for frequent releases as I continue to build the ultimate achievement companion.
