I added your suggestion in (a) to the wiki page for installing in OSX. (thanks)

For (b), I finessed mysql completely. I removed references to mysql from the install on OSX wiki page, so that the new user just uses sqlite. That requires no additional installation and, at least on Linux and Windows, is a bit faster. It would probably be good if someone added how to setup and use the standard install of mysql on OSX.

As an aside, there has been some progress made on getting the HUD going on OSX. There are problems remaining, possibly related to python versions or OSX version, or something. You might monitor the #fpdb irc channel on freenode.net, if you are interested in this.

There are no stats avaliable for tournaments like for cash games - cbet, vpip,...?

With the latest NON exe version, is anyone else having problems where the hud no longer moves when a table moves? And, the hud doesn't close automatically when a table is closed?

These features were causing crashes for some users. I'm working on getting those things back, in a crash-free manner.

I've been attempting to install fpdb for a little while now, but I can't seem to get it to work. I seem to be on the right track, but here is my latest problem.




How do I fix this, I'm on a mac, if that makes a difference.

Move a version of the hud config file to that location. There's a version that comes with that's called like pyfpdb/HUD_config.test.xml.example Just move it to ~/.fpdb/ and rename it HUD_config.xml At least this is a quick and dirty solution. Good luck.

Thanks.

I ran into an issue when I had to create the folder .fpdb because an error came up saying folders cannot start with a dot. I figured out a workaround by showing invisible folders, and by showing them I was able to do it.

Finally have it up and running, took all day. Now i get to mess around with it for a little.

Thanks for the update on this. As you might expect fpdb does this automatically for Linux and Windows users. (It might be trying to do it for OSX users, but is fouling up on /users/name instead of /home/name.) We have some OSX users who are contributing code now, so one of them should fix this in the near future.

15$ to anyone that is open to setup teamviewer and install it for me and import the first hand.

EDIT: Downloaded an installer that said to install everything for me but the file called fpdb-0.21_rec2.exe only zips up some stuff and get errors when I run fpdb etc etc.

since any search just shows the entire post, what do I need to change to reposition the thing where it shows the previous hand?

Also is there anyway to make it so that it shows the previous hand for all tables? It seems like it shows on the first table but no others.

Actually I'm just looking for it to be sorta like holdem manager where it gives a little graphic view of the hands and actions on the side of the table.

The mucked card display should be on by default. It just shows opponents' hole cards, not action.

Making a side window with the hands and action would not be hard using the aux_window interface. My todo list is so long now that it isn't worth adding something else. If somebody wants to take this on, I will be happy to give advice on #fpdb on freenode.net.

Hi Dog, a short-term work around after a table moves is to right mouse click and "Kill this HUD" and allow the HUD to regenerate on the next hand at the new screen location.

Hello . Is there anyone who could adjust my config So the stats always come at seat 5 for pokerstars I tried already myself but I can't get it done .

I'd appreciatie it thx

Here is my hudconfig
http://www.speedyshare.com/files/267...ig.xml.example

That's the "example" file and not your hud_config.xml file, which is needed to see your settings. Also, anyone who will help needs to know how many seats your playing to know where you want the stats...and might help to know the game you're playing. Have you set your "favorite seat" in the "preferences" in FPDB? It should be the same "favorite seat" as you have set at PokerStars or whatever site you're playing at.

If you are playing 6 handed, here's what I use... you can copy and paste it into your config file over the same area that refers to a 6 handed game...

<layout height="546" max="6" width="792">
<location seat="1" x="555" y="169"> </location>
<location seat="2" x="572" y="276"> </location>
<location seat="3" x="363" y="348"> </location>
<location seat="4" x="150" y="273"> </location>
<location seat="5" x="150" y="169"> </location>
<location seat="6" x="363" y="113"> </location>
<location common="1" x="323" y="232"> </location>
</layout>

Dog

Hey Dog. Thx for your reaction. It was idd my example file but now I got the good one but it still doesn't display the hud @ seat 5

This is what I have
</layout>
<layout max="9" width="792" height="546" fav_seat="5">
<location seat="1" x="560" y="0"> </location>
<location seat="2" x="679" y="123"> </location>
<location seat="3" x="688" y="309"> </location>
<location seat="4" x="483" y="370"> </location>
<location seat="5" x="444" y="413"> </location>
<location seat="6" x="224" y="372"> </location>
<location seat="7" x="0" y="307"> </location>
<location seat="8" x="0" y="121"> </location>
<location seat="9" x="140" y="0"> </location>
</layout>
<layout fav_seat="5" height="546" max="2" width="792">
<location seat="1" x="651" y="288"> </location>
<location seat="2" x="10" y="288"> </location>

This might have nothing to do with it, but in the two-seat you posted, it showed your favorite seat as "5" which can't happen. Other than that, someone else will have to jump in and help.

It may be right, but you seem to have a lot of zeros "0" in your seat locations. That's pretty rare, not saying it can't be, but might have something to do with the stats that follow. Are you showing stats in any position? Where are your stats appearing?

Dog

This is a layout for a 9 handed table. Are you seeing 9 stat windows? You might need to move the windows around. The tool tips display the the player's screen name, so you can confirm that the windows are on the right location.

I have experienced periodic crashes of the entire X server when using fpdb for some time now. A crash of the X server defined as: the screen goes mostly black except for some Ubuntu text, and then the gnome login manager appears, and I am no longer logged in. This kills most of my user processes, including Full Tilt poker.

However now that I am playing pot limit omaha and have recently had the "mucked cards display" enabled (in my settings it is disabled in holdem games), the problem has become much worse. The problem is reproducible most easily with "faster action" and more tables. The mucked cards display flickers over one table several times, then the entire x session crashes and closes.

If anyone else has experienced this: is there a work around?

I realize this is probably a bug in xorg (or a graphics display driver, or the Fluxbox window manager) and not fpdb. I'm not going to post log files or specs here because they wont interest most, but if there is a specific log that would be best to look at, any suggestions would be appreciated.

Nasty - sounds like an issue with the compositing. Disabling the mucked card display and setting the opacity to 0 (1 maybe?) may help.

Sorrow

sorrow, I mistakenly posted my problems on the sourceforge forum with topic title "Not importing games properly" and you suggested discussing it here. In answer to your questions, I was using version 0.21_rc2 of fpdb on Windows Vista. All the games were cash ring games, almost all NLHE, just a few hands of PLHE. It is probably not relevant, but the most recent sessions which did not seem to be reflected in the stats and graphs were 6-max tables. I will happily provide any or all the hand histories I imported, to you directly on request.

sorrow, to help identify the source of my problems, I repeated my testing using a fresh installation of fpdb 0.20.1. Importing today's hand histories (4 files) unfortunately gave very wrong equity graph, suggesting that something is going wrong.

Could it be a problem with the FTP format hand history files? Or perhaps with the particular table type I was playing on? Or more likely something else I have not thought of ...

P.S. The software is great and getting greater, barring these slight problems which I am sure you will solve!

Hi Elroch, FPDB 0.20.1 isn't really supported at the moment - 0.20_rc2 is the version I recommend running.

FTP is pretty well supported, and doesn't have any accounting issues that I know of. Are you able to email me the 4 files, and the total profit you expected to see please?

carl dot gherardi @ gmail dot com

Thanks, sorrow - done. Do you mean 0.21_rc2? I can't seem to find 0.20_rc2.

I did mean 0.21_rc2 - I haven't received and email though

My mistake - I made a typo in your e-mail address. Resent just now.
