Hi, my partycaption license is about to expire in 5 days, so I just paid 30 usd via pokerenergy, but I am not sure how my payment will be linked to my license that is about to expire, how can I make sure my license will keep working normally?

Hey @LikeAA, I am facing some quite annoying stuff, like having to click on hud button several times before it works, a little bit of lagging and also the tables blink a lot. Is there anything I can do to improve that? Ideally the table wouldn't blink, there would be no lagging and the hud button would work insta.
I used to have party caption and never had these problems, now I am considering moving to starscaption but those problems make the experience quite annoying.
Is there anything I can o on my end or it is something it will be fixed in the next updates?

Hi
Did you specify your License ID in order? If it so, then I hope your license already activated.
If you didn't, then get it from PartyCapton / License tab and tell it them.

Hi
Update StarsCaption to v0.72c, you can find it here.
Let me know if it works better there. If it still doesn't work very well, then try enabling this option there:

Looks like this in the lobby: https://images.pokerfirma.com/2020/11/24h_button_ps.jpg

and it's also on every table you play so it's pretty risky ...
Hi
Do you have this button in PokerStars.eu client? Or you play in some other client now?
Can you show me how it looks at the tables?
I probably need your help to implement such a function, since I don't have this button and can't debug it myself.

Hi

Some options for the new lobby work in v2.67
Most likely new version of 888Capiton will be available today or tomorrow, I'll try to add an option for sizeble lobby if it will be possible to do it quickly.

The lobby is completely new, and the tournament lobby too, and many other windows. It will take me a significant amount of time to fix all the options, and this will be done in several stages.

See here, it's on the PokerStars.EU client - yes. If you click the button, you get signed off/restricted for 24h. Super dangerous for misclicks. Maybe create a GUI that you can move around? The Panic button's position changes depending on table themes/game you play and it's also in the Replayer so it would be best if you had a dummy button that you can move around freely. Hope this helps! Let me know if you need more info.

I have created something in AutoHotKey that "solves" this issue for static tables (see the grey boxes on top of the button)



But that doesn't work anymore when I move/resize the table and also I need different scripts for any time I want to play another number of tables ...

wegg, you can try to create a panel in HUD / Table panels to hide it

That works! Is there a possibility to place something over the lobby as well? Or only tables? (there's a button on the lobby too ...)

Hey, I did what you suggested and updated tte software. It is a bit better as I don't have to click a HUD button multiple times anymore, but still is quite a bit laggy and the tables keep blinking.

Ticking the the alternative method haven't changed anything tbh, not that I have noticed at least.

Also I'd like to have the sitout next bb if time bank is lower than some seconds or if the stack is higher than a certain number, but quite often it me out the next BB for no reason without matching any of the requirements.

Sorry, there is no HUD for the main lobby.

You can try to use Lobby cropping, with this options you can crop lobby by this way, for example:



Lobby has no title in this mode, so you can't move it, but you can use Lobby size & position to place it on a screen, or Lobby / Hide/show lobby hotkey to hide/show it.
In this mode you will not be able to click on the button.

Hi
1. Ok I'll try to find out if there is more to do with this.
2. Can you try to check what option works wrongly for you, 1st or 2nd (or maybe both of them), try to test them individually.

Ok great! Thank you.

One more question:

I'm trying to change the opacity of one HUD element without changing it for the entire HUD. Is that possible? Or can I only configure it for the whole HUD? If not, could you look into adding that function?

Sorry, but this is not possible with a current HUD engine.

please let me know how to display stacks and pots in big blinds with starscaption. The pokerstars option for this keeps randomly moving back and forth between real dollars and big blinds lol pretty funny actually how tilting that is.

Should be convert chips>cash table>convert to bb. However the oh so important option "convert to bb" is nowhere in sight and all I get is an "active box" and "multiplier" box under the "cash table" tab in the upper left there.

Thanks man.
1. So I paid a bit more attention today and the table blinks everytime a new hand is dealt.
2. Sit out when the stack reaches a certain threshold is working fine, the problem is the sitout whenever timebank is unde X seconds. What happens is that caption will tick the sitout next BB whenever it has to activate the time bank, so if it activated tha timebank but still has 30 seconds left it will tick the sitout button, even if I had "sitout when timebank is under 2 seconds".

Hi, I have a problem with your software, total pot and Pot odds are displaying 0 and not updating? Also, RNG and stack are not displaying... here are some images below.

Also Stack and actions are not displaying at all.

I have a similar problem: Betscript not working, RNG not showing, preset bet buttons not showing. The general HUD is showing (the one that tells me how long I've been playing and how many hands I've played across all tables) but it's not counting hands.

I'm using Starscaption on small stakes cash game tables using the Mercury theme - and of course with the Aurora graphics engine that we can't switch off any more - and I have both Stars and StarsCaption running as administrator. I wonder if a Stars update has interfered with the functioning of StarsCaption.

BTW I have StarsCaption v0.72c running.

Hope you can help. Thank you.

Just to add that I'm playing on PokerStars UK and Stars Caption tells me it's build 35261.
Also Pot Odds and Action not showing either.

I reverted to StarsCaption v0.72b and nothing improved so I guess it's a problem with a Stars update and not a StarsCaption update.

Turn on Active there. There is no something like 'Convert type' like in Tourney table section, because for cash tables it converts to big blinds only.
