nvm found it it just doesnt open yet.

I just tried this program. I'm playing in Full Tilt and the hud does not work. Any ideas? I've already tried restarting the importer, but that doesn't work. I'm on Windows XP if that matters.

They need to know which version you have installed.

@deadsuns,@buddhamonk.

A couple of things to check initially:

Start FPDB, Choose Main/preferences

open supported sites/Full tilt

check that screen_name is set : make sure upper/lower case is correct!

check HH_path (HH=Hand History): For default installations, this will normally be
C:/Program Files/Full Tilt Poker/HandHistory/xxxxx/ where xxxxx is your screen_name

If there are still teething problems. Select Help/Log Messages and look at the fpdb Errors and Hud Errors section - post anything showing as an error here, and someone will help you with the issue.

Buddahmonk, not sure which site you are trying - it is the same process for each site.

Everything is correct. My Viewers (Graphs, stats etc.) are working just fine.

Is the HUD main window supposed to list the names of open tables or something (like HEM does)? My main window doesn't do that.

Here's some errors I found:
*****

Well I played a bunch of cheapo sng's last night using 0.20.903 source version.
I started with no logfiles and a fresh db (SQLite).
I experienced 4 or 5 hud freezes but I just cycled autoupdate off/on to bring the hud back.

I've zipped up the logs/database/config/hand histories for whoever wants to look into this freeze business, but I don't want to just send them out to the whole mailing list. If you could give me a pm with an email address to send it off to, I'll get it to you.

I'm thinking that if you compare what is in the db to what is in the hand histories, it should clarify whether atoupdates are still getting hands despite the fact that the hand histories are broken from the first freeze onwards. Not all the hand history files were truncated, but if you look at the ones that were, you see that:
1) The final hand before the corruption was being written at the time that things get screwy.
2) When things get screwy, the data being written is actually data that should be getting written, but with every other character dropped, until finally it goes into 0000000 mode and never recovers.

There should be no differences between middle click and double-left-click, and it works the same on my end. Maybe you should try the "Reposition Stat Windows" menu option, whoever is having problems.

I'm sure this has probably been covered, but what is the current level of tournament support in terms of just parsing hand histories (don't care about HUD)? Can it handle hand files and match them to summary files? When I consulted the features section of the wiki it simply stated that tournament support was "unknown". thx

Play money tourneys would appear to be broken here. Registering in a play money sng now so i can diagnose.

Haven't seen that in a while. Thats the mucked card display dying because it cant find the cards image.

Removing 'mucked' from your site/game combination in the config file will make the issue go away, but its not something that should be broken. What games are you playing?

Will PM shortly.

Parsing hand histories for touneys has received some attention since the 0.20 release, and 0.20.90x.

Tourney summary files from stars are parsed, though I dont believe we have a useful graphing interface yet.

Sorrow

So aside from the graphing, it's really just about getting the particulars right for the other poker sites?

Is this type of tourney supported yet? (using fpdb-0.20.902noSSE)

PokerStars Game #47855444566: Tournament #299210708, $5.00+$1.25+$0.50 USD Omaha No Limit - Level I (10/20) - 2010/08/07 22:40:35 ET
Table '299210708 1' 9-max Seat #1 is the button

I dont play tournaments, Steffen has done most of the work. Most Stars SnGs and MTTs parse, and insert the correct values into the database.

This is an area undergoing active development at the moment, and I think he is working on resolving summary files to the imported tourney, and updating missing information at the moment.

The next snapshot release will support parsing knockout tournies on Stars.

Pretty much. There's a few general things I still need to implement but mostly it's about recognising all the little details about a tourney. That's one of the things we need people to test with the snapshots. I'll add a dialogue that displays all the relevant information hopefully into the next snapshot.

Great, thanks. I started looking at the source code yesterday and i'm going to try to get familiar with it all over the coming weeks/month. Depending on your needs, I may be able to help out at some point.

I feel like my question is kind of dumb and basic, but I'm going to throw it in here anyway.

After I install the software and run it for the first time, it says "** ERROR DEFAULT PATH IN CONFIG DOES NOT EXIST **" in my PokerStars auto-import field (it says the same thing in the other ones, fulltilt and carbon). When I try to browse and navigate to my HandHistory file, for some reason the program cannot find the folder.

When I pull up instant hand history on the PS client, it says it's located at C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\PokerStars\HandHistory \. I get stuck at AppData when browsing with the software; that folder is not displayed. I can, however, reach my PokerStars folder through C:/Program Files, but even when I get there that way the HandHistory folder is not there.

Any advice?

Right click and select "show hidden files" in fpdb, if you want to see the files in explorer you need to activate the same option in the options dialogue

I hope you find the code understandable, if you have questions best join us on IRC or send a mail to mailing list. If you're looking for something quite simple to get started you could have a look at this: http://****************/apps/mantisbt...view.php?id=12

Edit: Bug 13 might also be interesting as an entry point

Thanks, I got it to find my history folder now.

Unfortunately, I seem to have run directly into another problem. From the "How to set up and use the HUD" wiki:

I'm stuck here. The first time I tried to continue after fixing my hand history problem, it did actually find my table (at least, a line of text appeared in the big dialogue box that said something about the table I was playing at) but the HUD didn't start. It didn't overlay any stat windows that I saw.

Now, any time I try it again, it doesn't even find my table, and I'm not sure what I changed (if anything) between now and the first time I tried it.

Can you check the error logs? You should be able to find them in C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\fpdb\logs or if not then check C:\Users\name\AppData\fpdb\logs

If it's more than a few lines just send it to our mailing list (fpdb-main@lists.****************)

Sorry, I can't find that file. I don't even have an fpdb folder in my Local or App Data folder, so I tried searching my computer for the folder in every way I know how in case it got stuck somewhere else and just couldn't find it. The closest thing I have is the fpdb-0.20.1 folder from the original extraction, but I didn't see a logs folder anywhere in there either.

Try searching for the filename fpdb-log.txt, making sure that explorer (aka "My Computer") is configured to display hidden files.
Alternatively you can open the log files from the help menu. Check if it reports any errors.

I went into the help menu and actually saw right away an entry that told me where my errors were being diverted to, so I was able to locate the error log. Unfortunately, all it says is "fpdb starting ..." which is the same thing it says when I select "fpdb errors" in the log messages window that I arrived at through the help menu.

Can you check the other files in that directory where you found the file?
Also, what OS version and what type of poker on which site are you playing?
From the path you posted I'm guessing you're on Vista or Win7?
If so, are you running fpdb as admin as is unfortunately necessary on these systems?

Oh wow, I didn't know you had to run it on admin. That tends to fix a lot of things I have trouble with on my computer, I'll post again with the other information you requested in a minute after I try admin.

Alright admin didn't help in any way that I can see, so here's the other info:

I use Vista, and I play on Full Tilt and Poker Stars (same problem on both currently).

The other files in that directory where I found the error log are:

fpdb-log (seems to be a fairly lengthy text document of everything I've done with the program so far)
HUD-errors (only entry reads "HUD_main: starting ...")
HUD-log (another lengthy text document where nothing seems to jump out as particularly wrong)

And actually I clicked the fpdb error log again and this was in there now:

"fpdb starting ...C:\Users\name\Desktop\fpdb-0.20.1\pyfpdb\library.zip\GuiAutoImport.py:145: GtkWarning: Could not find the icon '"%1"'. The 'hicolor' theme
was not found either, perhaps you need to install it.
You can get a copy from:
http://icon-theme.freedesktop.org/releases"

I could email all of those logs if you need them for any reason.

Edit: I was just messing around testing it some more on the freeroll I'm currently playing on Full Tilt and, although I don't think I did anything different, suddenly I'm getting player stats overlayed on my table like I wanted in the first place.
