Thanks for your reply.

Are you perhaps using a non english locale for FPDB?

Taking a good look at the documentation:

"%b - Locale’s abbreviated month name."

Which _could_ mean that the hh file is in English, but your FPDB setup is looking for a 3 letter month abbreviation for a different word.

ie. In Czech January is Leden, so the 3 letter format might be 'Led'

Pure speculation on my part, but the above time format should match without issue.

Thanks for the hh wask - this is importing for me. Can you confirm which version of FPDB you are running please?

My system locale is non-english. I changed it and it works! But can I use my non-english locale and run FPDB?

Thank you.

Locales are not my strong suit.

Under linux you could:
To just run the single process using that language (Australian english in the above example.) I'm not sure of the equivalent under Windows.

It works properly. Thank you.

Hello, is the graph viewer broken in 21rc2? I'm getting this error:

***Error: getRingProfitGraph(341): 'tuple' object has no attribute 'insert'

I can't seem to import hands properly. I tried bulk import with cashgame hands from ps.fr and ftp.fr after "creating tables", console output are messages like this :

GuiBulkImport.load done: Stored: 127 Duplicates: 0 Partial: 0 Errors: 0 in 0.11258482933 seconds - 1128/sec

which made me happy.

But if I try to view the hands throught ring player stats, nothing appears, not even game types
If I type my hero name and try the refresh buttons console displays sad messages as

INFO: No games returned from database
No player ids found

"Database statistics" says my db is empty

Here's a screenshot of what's happening



What am I doing wrong ?

Okay, bash me, I was trying to bulk import PS hands with the "Full Tilt Poker" Site Filter.
So importing PS.fr hands seems to work, but Full Tilt doesn't work even with the right filter when importing. Maybe a .fr issue ?

That looks familiar. I thought this could only happen when a single hand was returned though.

Are you able to send me the hand history thatisn't importing please?

Note: Play money doesn't function on FTP.

Config requests and color tricks.

When a new release occurs, it's hard to guess if it's OK to save your old config file or if you should get a new one and move your edits from your old version line by line and section by section.

What If ...

Config.xml had an #include feature so that sections of interest could be saved in separate files. This way, the config file could be much shorter, and when work has been done in a section, only that section will need to be updated and re-edited.

IE hud layouts are a pain to setup by hand, but if they haven't actually changed in a new config.xml that's good to know. As it is, you have to carefully parse by eye to determine if you need to start over, or if your old section is still good.

The hud section could be replaced with
#include holdem.xml
#include omaha.xml
#include razz.xml
#include omaha8.xml
etc....
Then if one of them needs to be updated due to a change in the software, at least a person could just focus on the single section(s) of interest.

What if ...

It were possible to define document wide constants, ie:
HiColor ="#FF4040"
LoColor ="#40FF40"
MedColor ="#FFFF00"

Then a stat might be defined as
<stat click="tog_decorate"
col="1"
popup="default"
row="0"
stat_hicolor=HiColor
stat_hith="40"
stat_locolor=LoColor
stat_loth="25"
stat_name="vpip"
tip="tip1"/>

This way, instead of having to edit the colors in a new config file individually, a person would just put their favorite defaults into one section and they would be used everywhere.

OK, here's my color trick for those of you that wish you had a color range with three colors:

<stat click="tog_decorate"
col="1"
hudcolor="#FFFF00"
hudprefix="" hudsuffix=""
popup="default"
row="1"
stat_hicolor="#FF5000"
stat_hith="60"
stat_locolor="#40FF40"
stat_loth="40"
stat_name="wmsd"
tip="tip1"/>

The hudcolor can be set individually for each stat and is used whenever the value of the stat is above the stat_loth and below the stat_hith.

Amen to this suggestion. Constantly having to guess what does and doesn't need changing would save a lot of eye strain

, like that, and point us to the area needing replacing.

I like it, but i'm not sure if xml actually supports this. We may need to homebrew something.

Looking into it.

Full Ring stats returns a lot of hands with the same criteria but graph always fails.

I think the Stars update broke my HUD. I dont get the stats on the table anymore. They now show up in my taskbar. Running .21RC1

same to me, .21RC1 on Windows7

problem doesnt occur in RC2, so it's fine for me

Excellent.

Can you try rc2 please? rc1 had "issues"

I reverted the change that can cause this, the next release will contain the fix unless you run the source version.

Absolute beginner question !! fpdb INSTALLATION

Hi, absolutely new to linux - ubuntu (10.10). I'm trying to install fpdb but don't manage. Feels kinda awkward to ask such a trivial question on the forum, sorry for that but after 4 hours trying I really could use help. I explain all the steps I've taken not knowing what is relevant and what isnt'.

I've used the git sources method given in <http://****************/apps/mediawiki/fpdb/index.php?title=Install_in_Ubuntu>.

It downloads and copies the folders/files to home. Tutorials i looked at gave command lines for launching setup but that didnt' work (i.e. make command). I then assumed that the files .py are python and must be installed with "setup.py install". Finding that took me a while. Then took me longer to figure out how to get the rights to install. So at that point I thought that I had installed allright and proceeded with installing the python packages, mysql, creating the db and modifying the HUD file.

I thought I eventually had it but fpdb doesn't appear as installed software with synatptic and doesnt' show up in Applications. I could run the run_fpdb.py file, open fpdb and could import a couple hands but couldn't get anything else to work.

Also tried to download from the website thinking it would be a .deb file I could open with a package manager (that too took a while to find out) but that didnt' work either (opening the tar.gz I got the same files I had downloaded with git).

So, in short, can someone tell me where i get things wrong and how to install? I really have to get this working, i decided to move to ubuntu after being told it was ok for poker (and after gettign the blue screen of death one too many time).

Thanks!

Updated to RC2 and still have the same problem with the HUD appearing on the taskbar. Stupid Stars update.

does this support ipoker?

That page needed a bit of an update.
I've updated the doc to indicate that installing an external database is no longer necessary.

To get started with the source version:
That sounds like you were up and running. The source version will not appear in synaptic as it isn't a package. The .deb version should.

Can you define 'anything else' please?

How many hands did you attempt to import, for what sites, and what functionality was failing?
FTP and Stars work pretty well under wine. I cant vouch for the other sites, but with some work I believe other sites can be made to work.

You would probably be one of the first users. I think i've got most of the parser functional, I dont have any sample hand histories except for a single Stud H/L example.

Given a couple of hand histories I'm sure I could get support in before the next release.

In HUD_config.xml, is there a way to limit the length of players names?

I dont believe so. It was discussed (and possibly even written by one dev) but I dont think it was ever included.

Sorrow

Just downloaded this, but i cant get the hud to show at all, it opens a "hud main window" where it just says closing this window will quit the hud.

any idea how i can get the actual hud to show at the stars tables?
