About £100 IIRC, but that's not really the annoyance - it is having to make space on my disks for a new OS installation (because I cannot be altering my perfect XP Pro poker setup), get the drivers for my hardware, get it all up and running properly etc. etc.

I'll probably start keeping my eye out for a super-cheap laptop that has it already, that would be easier

I wonder (after reading Internet Gambling forum about the latest bug-ridden Stars update) - has this gone away now since they rolled back... or does it persist?

ok, i will try it out. i just don't know what you mean by "better". i can see that in stars the limitation is when i add a new table past my current setup that it will not be configured correctly...

I didnt see the use for the programm until I started using it. Now I get frustrated playing on sites where I cant use it.

keeps telling me, "Please add "f5redrawtable=1" option to PokerStars "user.ini" file for increased performance."

how can I do this?

Searched thread for "f5redrawtable" without quotes.

Is there any thing I can change in the script myself to change the feature of "auto buyin when seated" to not buy in max at a NL table? Can I just maybe have it not click the ok button so I can change the value myself?

If I understand this feature correctly, if you get on a waitlist, and the table pops up, it automatically takes the seat and buys me in right? So I can have it do all that and just stop before it hits the last ok? Thanks!

Ok, so just tried it out, and it doesn't take the seat after the table opens up. I can use stars assistant to automatically click yes to join a waiting list table, and then I can click on my seat on the table, and starsplanner will automatically sit me down with the default buyin.

2 things I am wondering:

1) Is there any way to get a AHK script to automatically take the seat at a table when its opened? Like looking for the R on the table, or empty seat? and then clicking it?

2) same as previous, any way to not buyin for the full amount? Right now, I am using stars autoreloader and I changed some of the script so it reads all tables as limit, and then I have set a button to rebuy for 10BB when I want to, and that works well. There's gotta be a way that can be incorportated to run when I first sit down right? And have me buyin for a specific BB number? I would have no idea how to do something like that though.

Dave,

has this been done?

Also, when I add "f5redrawtable=1" to the [Options] portion of my uni file, it won't let me save. It says "word cannot save or create this file. Make sure that the disk you want to save the file on is not full, write-protected, or damaged." Any way I can get around this?

Try editing the file using note pad. I tried using Word, but had a similar problem a few times.

Yeah, use notepad rather than word ("right click / open with..." if it auto-opens in Word) - and you need to do it with Stars *not* running or it changes it back again when you exit. You may need to do the edit as administrator too, if you are on Vista.

Not yet been doing little other than AHKHUD for ages ow, almosy done with the next version of that and I'll be right on the update for this.

Hi Dave,

Thanks for all your work on StarsPlanner. One quick question, I get the "Please add "f5redradtable=1" option..." message everytime I run this script. I added that code to my user.ini file (it is actually called user.ini.mitigated for me...what's up with that?). Any fix so it doesn't pop up each time I run the script?

Also, I'm not sure how feasible this is, but if there was any way to make the "sit out at all tables" option to "sit out next big blind", that would be amazing

Quoted from a Zoo thread regarding Stars notes.txt file and the recent update for Vista users. I think this may have some relevance with part of your problem.

Hey dave, any suggestions on what I wanted to do with the auto buying in?

Does this feature still work? I can't get it to.

Yes it works ...

Occasionally, trying to switch table A with table D doesn't work, so I switch table D with A and it does just fine.

Also seems easier if moving a table from a higher numbered position to a lower numbered position.

OK I got it to work.

Is there any way that I can get stars planner to only recognize my poker stars tables and not my full tilt tables? I basically wanna have all my poker stars tables on one moniter using stars planner and my full tilt tables on the other one using full tilt planner. I guess u could call me a perfectionist :]

Maybe this is a ******ed question, but I will still ask it. I play on two monitors and when I multitable, it tiles 4 tables to the first one and the other tables on the second one. But I would like to have all tables tile on the second one. Is there a way to manage that with this script or is solution somewhere else?

Was having the same problem Too used to PartyPlanner.

Dave: I'm actually still having lots of problems with this. Often times tables go to spots that are completly unexpected and certain tables that i can't seem to move into other spots.

Also would it be possible to incorporate Party lobby position and a way to keep it to the front?

EDIT: I had also made a layout using FTPlanner and although my capture was almost indentical my numbers are drastically different. The FTPlanner one seems to work a bit better as well, heres that one:

What setup is this, 4x3 all on a single 30" monitor?

edit: no it can't be... describe monitors + intended layout please.

30" + 20" rotated 90 degress:
[1] [2] [3] | [10]
[4] [5] [6] | [11]
[7] [8] [9] | [12]

and they are slightly resized so no vertical overlap, with a unused vertical strip on the far left?

Do you have a taskbar visible or not? (if visible, how big is it...i.e how many vertical pixels have we got to deal with?

I guess mine is pretty unique in that it's a mess I think the easiest way to explain is a screen shot:



Edit: Ideally all tables would be the same re-sized size and the layout would be perfectly uniform but I just moved em till they were close and then captured.

That is why I'm asking details before I rewrite your layout

does that gap between the monitors not bother you? I'm nitty enough I just have all 12 on the 30, then dump everything else on the 20
