Looks great!
Is goggle checkout the only payment option?
And, is it possible to highlight the next table in the attention queue with a different color border from all other tables awaiting action?
Seeing as its an executable app, can anyone else on 2+2 vouch for you?

Google checkout is the only payment option, but they accept all major credit cards and are extremely easy to use. We figured people would rather give google their credit card info than give it directly to us. If there's another option you'd like us to add let me know.

The beta is free and has all the features unlocked so you can just use the beta version for now if you like. However, if you'd like to support TableNinja we'd greatly appreciate it

Right now we don't have an option to highlight the next table in the queue a different color than the others but this is definitely something we can look into. A big part why we want a beta is to get a lot of feature suggestions from the community so that we can give people the exact features they need most.

I understand privacy and security are big issues so I'm glad you asked about this. We've been running a small closed beta with volunteers from 2+2 for a week or two, and they've all downloaded and used the program. I'll ask some of them if they want to post here and vouch for us, I don't want to give out their 2+2 user names or do anything that would violate their privacy in this response but I'm sure some of them will be happy to respond. I also do some coaching so I can have some of my students vouch for me too. I've been a member of the forums for a while and I have a good reputation so feel free to search my post history and I'm sure you'll be satisfied.

Let me know if you have any other questions,

Tarath

Is it always gonna have to work without poker stars classic theme and even default background within that theme? I like other themes for aesthetics but I thought Ok ill use default but I also like to use a plain black background to make it easier to see my HUD stats so it kind of sucks being locked into this one theme and even default background.

also, does this work with stacking? I maximize and stack my tables and the documentation says something about overlapping, is this an issue?

* also just a small thing like minimizing it to the taskbar

Hello y'all. I just wanted to vouch for this program. I volunteered to test this program a couple weeks ago and it has worked well and been updated and improved per suggestions multiple times. Prior to this I had never used any of the AHK scripts because I'm relatively computer illiterate and I only 4 table, but this program makes it really easy. Any questions, let me know.

I downloaded the beta and switched to PS Classic theme.
I'm assuming its OK to use a card mod?
An option to minimize at startup would be nice.

Adding support for a new theme is a fair amount of work because screen scraping takes a lot of time, especially to make it robust and to make sure it works for all table sizes and reasonable HUD layouts. We're definitely going to work on adding a theme but it may take some time. In the mean time if you guys could let us know what the beste them to work on adding would be that would be great.

I assume adding hyper-simple is what the most people would want but if you guys have other suggestions feel free to let me know. Once we have a good sense of what people want we'll get to work on adding it.

As for tables overlapping if your using Vista this not an issue as far as we know. I run vista and everything works even if the table is completely covered.

On XP any time you want to act at a table the buttons, the pot, and the cards all need to be visible so the program can read the pot the street and the situation (if you use the "Click Buttons by Location: hotkeys only the pot and the cards must be visible).

We haven't done much testing with stacked tables on XP so I would definitely recommend that you test things out at play money or microstakes before using TableNinja this way, but we believe that as long as the table that you want to take an action at is visible everything should work and Stars should automatically pop tables that need action to the front for you. The only thing that won't work is that the green frames that go around the tables waiting for action will not appear.

Making the program minimize to the system tray (I think thats what you mean) is a great idea, we'll look into that.

I'm trying out the beta version and nothing is working.
No hotkeys and no table frames.
I'm running as administrator w classic theme

Edit:
I guess it only works on holdem tables, I play PLO.
Should be easier to mod it to work for omaha.

Is this basically a FullTiltShortCuts for PokerStars?

If this can't be used with ALL mods, it will be pretty useless. Look at FTSC, they implemented a way to make it useable for all mods.

Oh yeah I probably should have mentioned that we currently don't support omaha, I've added it to our FAQ. We currently have it disabled for Omaha because none of our closed beta testers played omaha and we weren't comfortable releasing something that hasn't been tested thoroughly.

If you'd be interested in us enabling the program for Omaha and sending you a copy by email to test out that would be awesome. We don't anticipate any problems, as far as we know everything should work exactly the same. If things went smoothly for you then we'd then enable Omaha for everyone.

Send me a PM if your interested.

Thanks and sorry for the confusion,

Tarath

So I understand things:
I have to use the classic table theme
I cannot overlap windows in XP
I cannot use this currently for Omaha

I have DL'd the beta, but these are pretty big for me. I use hyper simple theme (not sure how my various HUDs will look on classic, I use one of three HUD's depending on game/structure/number of players. Also, I play a lot of PLO and I often cascade my tables. I plan on giving this a try in any regard pretty soon.

Unfortunately because of the way Fulltilt's and PokerStars software work, supporting all mods on FT is reasonably doable whereas as doing it on stars is extremely difficult.

Fulltilt's UI contains registered windows buttons. You can download a program like winspy++ and find out how to control the FullTilt buttons directly no matter where they are and what they look like.

PokerStars UI is basically a picture as far as windows can tell. You actually have to grab the images from the screen and write code to look at the picture and parse it and then send mouse or keyboard input to points on the screen. Furthermore the fonts used in all the text including the display of the pot size can change, so being able to read different fonts and process different images to find the button text, pot size, and cards is generally going to be extremely hard.

A lot of things are much much harder to do on Stars and unfortunately there are some things that just aren't possible on Stars, even things that might be pretty easy on FT.

Also keep in mind that FTSC is on their 3rd commericial version while this is the first day of our beta. FTSC has been in development for years so obviously we aren't going to be able to match them feature for feature on our first day.

We want to support as many mods and themes as we can, however there is a trade off. If we add a feature like a Sit and Go opener every single SnG player can use that feature and enjoy it where as when we add support for a new mod our existing users who use things we already support don't get anything out of it.

Hey guys,

We have an updated version of TableNinja now that we think works with Omaha and Omaha H/L. If anyone wants to test it out send me a pm with your email and I'll send you a link.

Once we've had a few people test it for a few days we'll add it to the next major update we're planning which will hopefully be in about a week and include a lot of the stuff people have asked for so far.

Thanks

I don't think I have microsoft .net framework. Can I just download the bootstrapper or do I need the full package?

We worked this out over email but I thought I'd put a brief answer here in case anyone else has a similar issue.

It appears that without the .NET framework you need to install .NET, reboot your machine and then un-install and re-install TableNinja.

Most people have .NET so we don't have a lot of experience in dealing with this issue so if anyone else is having trouble because the don't have .NET installed and what I suggested above doesn't fix the problem, definitely let me know and I will try and help you out.

Is the Slick theme out for regular users? Stars asked me to beta something so I'm not sure if that theme is out for regular customers yet but I can see it becoming the de facto standard for HUD users. Much "simpler" than Hypersimple.

I'm glad you mentioned that because that's a dealbreaker for me too. I'm sure it connects to verify registration or whatever but I'm not willing to take that chance.
