Hi everyone,
Here's alpha5. The highlights are that the HUD now works for FTP as well (cash games only) and there's a first graph.
I recommend you recreate your tables (click on it in the database menu) and re-import all your history files since a few import bugs have been fixed.
You can find the downloads here:
https://****************/project/show...roup_id=226872
Please ensure to download alpha5 and not alpha4, sometimes it may take the mirrors a little bit of time to update.
Please use the usual means of contact listed on our contacts page at
http://fpdb.**************** if you have any problems, find bugs, want to praise us or give us animal names, or best of all send us patches
As previously announced we have now have an installer for Windows, however please note that v0.1 of that does not include the required libraries to use the graph, that will be included in the next version of it. However, the lack of these libraries will not bother the other parts of the program. Also note that the installer only includes the dependencies of fpdb, not fpdb itself - you still also need to download fpdb alpha5, unpack it, and edit HUD_config.xml to include your database password.
A number of people have asked how to help, here's a few possibilities:
- There's docs/known-bugs-and-planned-features.txt, just pick any of that.
- The fpdb main menu has many points marked "todo", feel free to start on these
- If anyone can be bothered, manually verifying hand imports (in particular whether HudCache gets updated correctly) would be very useful to raise the confidence we can have in the information that fpdb and inparticular the HUD display.
- Do anything else you feel like doing
If you do make improvements to fpdb we'd much appreciate if you send them in, however you have no legal obligation to do so. However, if you re-distribute a changed or even unchanged fpdb you cannot change the license and must include the complete source code.
Enjoy!
Steffen for the fpdb team
