and yet it's not even close to ready yet
Maybe 10/31 but there's still so much to do

would definitely be interested in a PLO version

Is there any type of software out there that I can use to export HEM notes into the Stars notes file? Didn't find anything in search. I would much prefer to use the Stars note system for reading notes than the HEM popup, especially after creating NoteCaddy notes on regs that are easily 4x more lines than any notes I've ever written.

Last I checked on the HEM forum, they said it's not possible with their export notes function.

target release date: 31 December

In NoteCaddy it's File->Synchronize->Synchronize PokerStars....

I use HM and am considering purchasing NoteCaddy. I have some questions about it.

Autorate Icons
HM already has icons for the top left corner of the HUD, but it looks like NC overwrites them. What happens if I use NC, and then decide to stop using it? Will the icons revert back to the HM ones? Also, is there a plan for HM to just give NC its own icon on the HUD so that the HM icon can stay like it is? It just seems like too much stuff is happening with that one icon in HM.


NoteCady Notes (Stats)
The stats collected and displayed by NC seem like they would be very useful. Are all the default NC stats collected into the notes when we run it, or just the ones that we choose?

It would be nice if instead of the stats being put into the HM notes text file, they were put into regular HUD stats so that we could then create pop-ups filled with NC stats. This would require HM development to do something to make all those stats available to the program. Are there any plans to do this?

The HEM icons absolutely should not be getting affected unless you choose the "highlight HEM notes" option in settings. If you are losing your icons then please send an email to support@notecaddy.com so I can work with you and see what's going on.

Right now it's inefficient in that if you just click start when you open it, it will take notes on everything. In my youtube videos I outline the recommended strategy which is to take notes on 10k hands and see what you like then remove the definitions that you don't. However, if I were using the software and weren't the programmer, I'd likely ignore that and it turns out everyone else does too I have a plan for version 1.1 (two versions from now) that should greatly optimize the getting started experience.

Thanks, that's how I thought it was supposed to work. Maybe I just didn't let it run long enough before and thought it was only for importing.

How do I know when it's finished? Right now I have "Found 9315 players" and that's as far as it gets. The Start button is inaccessible. I assume that when it's finished the Start button should come back on? I've had it running for about 10 minutes. I only created notes for a specific stake so there should be around 300k-400k hands worth of notes. My Stars client is also not open.

Give it some more time. Otherwise try it with logging on - then email the log to support@notecaddy.com. That feature has been around awhile and I haven't really had any bug reports on it so I am passed due.

In the 2nd youtube video, you modify "3bets" to "3betsLight." Before you modified it, the note looked like this.
[PF] 3 bets {88, AKs, AK}(3)

After you modified it, the note looked like this.
[PF] 3 bets light {88}(1/3)

Is it possible to modify that note so that it would look like this?
[PF] 3 bets light {88}(1/1)

I understand that when the note shows "(1/3)" it means that there were 3 opportunities to 3bet. But it would make more sense to me, and I think would also be more useful, if the note showed "(1/1)" because even though there were 3 opportunities to 3bet, there was only 1 opportunity to 3bet light.

The "(1/3)" means in this case that out of the 3 times he 3bet(and we got to know his cards) 1 time he 3bet LIGHT: 88 was light, AKs and AK were not.
The "(1/3)" is pretty interesting information(and doesnt use a lot of space) so I would leave that as it is.

Under the section missed opportunities:

- Set it to 'do not take notes' for what you want "3bets lite {88} 1/1" (in fact it will just say (1) i think, there's no point saying 1/1 or 15/15 etc.

- Set to 'define opportunities by range' if you want it to count missed opportunities when YES he did 3bet, but NO it's not a match because it wasn't light (so if you see say "3bets lite {....} 12/45" - you know that 12 times out of 45 this guy has 3bet *and shown down*, these 3bets have been lite.

- Set to 'define opportunities by action' if you want it to read "3bets lite {88} 1/3" which means the other 2 times he got a 'lite' hand, he decided not to 3bet it it.

You have to be careful with stats 2 and 3 because it's not quite like a HUD. To know his hand he has to get to showdown. If he folds, instead of 3bets, of course it wouldn't be counted.

Thanks for the responses, but I am not sure if you are saying that it can, or cannot, do what I want it do to. Let me give some more detail.

I would like for it to work as follows.

The first time that opponent shows down a hand, it is 88, a light hand, and he did in fact 3bet it, so I would like for it to show this:
[PF] 3 bets light {88}(1/1)

The second time that opponent shows down a hand, it is 66, again a light hand, but this time he did NOT 3bet it, so I would like for it to show this:
[PF] 3 bets light {88}(1/2)

The third time oppoent shows down, it is AKs, and he did 3bet that hand, but it is not a light hand, so I would like for the note to remain the same, like this:
[PF] 3 bets light {88}(1/2)

The fourth time opponent shows down, it is 55, a light hand, and he did in fact 3bet it, so I would like for the note to show this:
[PF] 3 bets light {88, 55}(2/3)

yeah then you need to set as "define opportunities by action". The way I did it was "by range". Then it should show up exactly as you're hoping

hey man
need help
i try to download this
but always stuck at 577kb
it seem that download connection end at 577kb
i am unable to download the entire program

Please try downloading from

http://www.assaultware.com/NoteCaddy.Installer.msi

Anything new on the new program?
And the new NC release?

The new software still isn't ready for beta As I was wrapping it up I had some ideas that I felt were necessary to implement before anyone else uses it. Here's a screenshot though



NoteCaddy 1.09 for one week from today will be among my highest priorities. Even if the other software has to be delayed even further

just purchased, great price and the perfect missing link between stats and note taking.

One question: Do I just load up the note caddy as Im playing and it updates during real time?

It will update in real time provided you have processed all existing hands and that you click the start button

If you're not interested in old hands, set a filter to start recently

Thank you for your purchase

1.09 BETA is here for download

http://forums.assaultware.com/showth...?220-1.09-beta

Here is the patch log:

Version 1.09
----------------------------------------------------------------------
-Added support for Everest Poker
-Added support for Boss Poker
-Removed alphabetization in note persistence to retain order of manual notes
-Improved board texture variable so that it specifies when the flushes hit (e.g. backdoor)
-Added "range" versions of most variables so that many notes that currently occupy multiple lines can be done in one line
-Added "must act flop/turn/river" check boxes so that it can be determined if a player was all in on a previous street
-Added "Versus HERO" check boxes to previous actions as well as player types. It is no longer necessary to make a hero profile in color coding. Using this option will also lead to much faster processing times
-Modified general strength algorithm slightly. Also, general strength can now be between two values rather than just greater than or less than
-Added manual pre flop bet sizing option
-Added option to show percentage of success when considering opportunities
-Added ability to resume color coding process if it is stopped while processing
-Added re-order option for grouping categories. This can be used if you change the order of your groups or if your grouping breaks somehow

Looks great!

My first idea for improvment:
Right now the "range" looks like this
"
[T][hu]Call 2-N Medium Bet with {Inside Straight Draw,Open Ended Straight Draw,Two Pair/Flush Draw!} HU on {775ss5,846rK,A38ss4|}(3)
"
So you cant link the handvalue with the board where it appeared.

Would be nice to have it that way
"
{Inside Straight Draw on A38ss,Open Ended Straight Draw on 846rK,Two Pair/Flush Draw on 4775ss5!}
"
If thats not possible maybe there are other possibilities to have something similar
Maybe with numbers?
"
[T][hu]Call 2-N Medium Bet with {1. Inside Straight Draw,2. Open Ended Straight Draw,3. Two Pair/Flush Draw!} HU on {3. 775ss5,2. 846rK,1. A38ss4|}(3)
"

Great that Everest is now supported. Thx for your reply to my email. Unfortunately I purged my handhistories two days ago for another reason - lol. So I have just 2700 hands in my database. Now I tried the new beta and it seems like Notecaddy can read the Everest-handhistories but Iam not sure because, Notecaddy says 2700 hands processed. Notes added:0 So it is just because of my small samplesize that it does not create notes or did I something wrong. How can I know that it all is set up right for me? Thx for your advice.

It would be very difficult to make either of those changes just given the way these enumerations work. I only have text to work with so identifying which enumeration it is becomes extremely complicated. I had actually attempted to use invisible characters which would have made anything possible but HEM didn't like that at all.

I am thinking for version 1.1 to allow people to rename things. Like for example, maybe someone who speaks Spanish doesn't process "open ended straight draw" as fast as a native English speaker. In fact, anyone may benefit from seeing OESD instead.

I did get your email with some very good ideas on how to compress notes even further. I have to be honest with you on why I didn't implement them. I would get too many support requests asking for clarification. I won't rule out adding them as some kind of advanced feature but to change the way boards work like that would have been a mistake at this point.

I didn't have error reporting set up for everest. If you re-download the beta, it should show you errors now. Alternatively, you could just send me your everest hands and I could see what the problem is. I based my parser off of only one person's hand histories so there's a good chance I made some error that wouldn't have been revealed yet. Also, if you still have your purged hand histories, you can import them directly into NoteCaddy. You don't have to take them from HEM

Great idea!
Sad that it didnt work.
If only HEM had at least some half decent notes...
I made some suggestions in their forums for some improvments on it but well have to wait and see I guess...

Thats deffo the case. Plus it helps with the "spaceing problem".

I can understand your reasoning.
If you could implement it later as a advanced feature it would be great.

1.09 looks good so far!
Any idea what could be in 1.1?
And any news on your other project?

link please

It won't be an easy feature but I think it's necessary


I have some pretty major ideas for 1.1 but don't want to give any details yet in case I end up falling short. The main thing though is that the whole NC UI is going to get thrown away and be replaced with an MDI type interface which would allow you to have everything open as tabs...

The new software is going to have this type of interface so I will see if it is any good then. The beta for the new software should be out this Sunday. I want to make sure it works well because when the NC beta originally was released it was a real piece of crap and I did myself a lot of damage so I want to avoid repeating that
