Is there a HUD?

yes, the most recent release has a HUD that works with PokerStars cash games. I am working on the code required to make the HUD work on Full Tilt now.

And it works in Linux (the only Linux HUD ) and Windows
Maybe Mac, too, we don't know.

Didn't think it'd be that easy, gonna try to get that in tonight, just doing some website updates.

Done, as of git98b (and therefore the next alpha - scheduled for 25Sep-2Oct) it will create a file called fpdb-error.log for error output.

Also you can now find instructions for subscribing to our mailing list and how to get notified of new versions on our contacts page, http://fpdb.****************/contact.php

Is support for Party ever going to happen?

I don't have any immediate plans, but it'll probably get in there at some point.

Am i the only one having problems with the hud on Windows?

The beauty of an open source project like this is that anyone can write that bit and get it into the main trunk.

I have the windows Full Tilt code ready to test. It works for me with "fake" Full Tilt client windows. So if there is a windows user who wants to try this code, send me a PM.

Is this working like PT2? You just download and it's work fine. No PT3 or HEM postgreSQL + Vista nightmares?

I pay lot of money to people who get this work @ party Poker. I need hold'em / omaha tracker + hud which work @ party Poker and is as easy as PT2 to download.

Install: It's a bit of a pain now, however there's probably a not too hard way (for those who are interested, this would be SQLite backend support) to fix this.
We don't yet have Party support, but if you're serious about payment send me a PM or mail (steffen@sycamoretest.info) and we could do it

There's a very good chance I can loan someone much smarter than me a Mac if they'll put together a set of instructions on how to get this working.

Hi everyone,
Here's alpha5. The highlights are that the HUD now works for FTP as well (cash games only) and there's a first graph.
I recommend you recreate your tables (click on it in the database menu) and re-import all your history files since a few import bugs have been fixed.

You can find the downloads here: https://****************/project/show...roup_id=226872
Please ensure to download alpha5 and not alpha4, sometimes it may take the mirrors a little bit of time to update.

Please use the usual means of contact listed on our contacts page at http://fpdb.**************** if you have any problems, find bugs, want to praise us or give us animal names, or best of all send us patches

As previously announced we have now have an installer for Windows, however please note that v0.1 of that does not include the required libraries to use the graph, that will be included in the next version of it. However, the lack of these libraries will not bother the other parts of the program. Also note that the installer only includes the dependencies of fpdb, not fpdb itself - you still also need to download fpdb alpha5, unpack it, and edit HUD_config.xml to include your database password.

A number of people have asked how to help, here's a few possibilities:
- There's docs/known-bugs-and-planned-features.txt, just pick any of that.
- The fpdb main menu has many points marked "todo", feel free to start on these
- If anyone can be bothered, manually verifying hand imports (in particular whether HudCache gets updated correctly) would be very useful to raise the confidence we can have in the information that fpdb and inparticular the HUD display.
- Do anything else you feel like doing

If you do make improvements to fpdb we'd much appreciate if you send them in, however you have no legal obligation to do so. However, if you re-distribute a changed or even unchanged fpdb you cannot change the license and must include the complete source code.

Enjoy!
Steffen for the fpdb team

regarding the env installer,

if i already have mysql and phyton installed in my pc, i do not need to remove them before running the env installer?

also, the env installer is for mysql and not postgres?

thanks

One (who developed the installer) told me that the installer detects mysql and skips that installation if it is already installed. I didn't specifically ask him about python, but even if pythong isn't skipped I don't think it will hurt anything.

thanks for the prompt reply.

after doing the env installer, and fpdb a5, i still got errors msg
"please install numpy and matplotlib"

so i need to manually install these two?

im using windows xp

thanks again

EDIT:
sorry i see the quotes from Steffen

These libs are only used for graphing--everything should work without them.

table viewer currently only works for texas or omaha only?
doenst seems to work with stud, stud hi/lo, razz

sorry i didnt follow every post in this thread, if this was mentioned before.

I just tried table viewer on a couple of stud games and it didn't work for me either. It does work for me with holdem games, so I expect there is a bug that affects the stud games. I don't know what Steffen's plans are for debugging/updating/etc the tv, and he is out of touch until Tuesday (I think). There are enough HUD things for me to work on that I am not going to dive in to the tv code.

Is it possible to download the source for the project? I couldn't find it on sourceforge. Also is it written with gcc/make the standard *nix development tools?

source is here. It is in the pyfpdb sub dir. up-to-the-minute source is here--also in pyfpdb folder. Since it is python, you don't need the development tools. (Life is too short for me to code in C.)

You should really put this somewhere in the documents, took me a long time to find it

This is great, great to see some open source poker software finally . I'll download soon and give it a whirl. Any idea when the HUD will be working for SNGs? I'm willing to play cash to help test it out, but it'd be nice if I could use it in a form of poker I'm actually good at

Well, I wasn't going to update tv again, but if people really want it I guess I'll see if I can fix the stud problem reasonably quickly. You should have an error-log.txt (or sth similiarly named) in the pyfpdb folder - can you pls email me that to steffen(at)sycamoretest.info.

Cheers, Steffen

PS: Probably won't post or respond to mails again until Tue or Wed or so
