Let me rephrase.

I am trying to start FPDB. I am using postgreSQL 8.3. I have to create the FPDB database.

I open PG Admin - what do I do now?

File - Add Server? What do I type in the boxes?

There was a guide earlier in this forum but it makes no sense based upon what I see in my version of PG Admin.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I just tried realtime HUD. Well, that was an interesting 2 minutes.

Do not want.

Couldn't find an option to turn it off temporarily or resize the displays, after minimizing my stars game window I couldn't bring it back up. Yeah, do not want.

I tried PT3 beta and I liked that you could disable the HUD if you wanted to.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------



Can you temporarily disable the HUD in FPDB?

Can you resize the stats displays?

I'm on a small 15 inch monitor and in order to play more than one table at the same time I have to shrink the tables to a really small size, and if I can't shrink the stats displays they'll cover the whole table and I can't see.

If not, I think it would be great to either be able to resize the stats displays, or turn the HUD on and off. You could leave the HUD off and then just turn it on real quick to check stats or whatever.

There is an install in windows howto in the wiki. I'm pretty sure you've missed step.

When fpdb dies it should write an error message to the fpdb-error-log.txt file or the HUD-error.txt file.

There is an option in the config file to prevent the HUD from opening. It is not working right now.

If I can get alpha10 out, you will be able to get a smaller font on the stat windows by editing the config file. For now, you can change the font size in the source by finding this line:

self.font = pango.FontDescription("Sans 8")

in Hud.py and changing it to "Sans 7" or "Sans 6". That should change the window size.

I installed fpdb on a different computer a couple of days ago and decided to use postgres (for no apparent reason). I messed around trying to get correct permissions for about 2 hrs, gave up and installed and set up mysql in about 10 min. (That was very frustrating because I had set up a postgres install before.) If somebody will write some step-by-step instructions for postgres, I'll add it to the wiki.

If I tried to import 2-7 3D hands, would it give me applicable stats like VPIP and bb/100?

Ok , I installed MySql instead.

I got the strong warning when opening fpdb.py

So, I created new tables.

Then I tried to bulk import and my computer could not find C:\/.winedrive - c/Programfiles/Pokerstars/Hand History.

What do I do to fix this problem? Hud does not work at all yet. It does seem to AutoImport if I click it but I don't know where to. No player stats show on pokerstars etc.

You have to turn on the instant hand history in the stars lobby, and play at least one real money hand, so the stars client can create your HH folder when it creates the first HH text file. If you have vista the HHs are created in a different directory. Options > Instant Hand history options.

I'm still having problems. I downloaded mysql and reinstalled the fpdb. This time it asked me for a password when installing this time so I know it picked up the mysql. However, when I go to load the program it still does the same thing. What am I doing wrong? lol

Not only that, it looks like the setup program barfed when it could not find a HH directory. So you need to edit you HUD_config.xml file.

You need to need to find the part that looks like this:
Code:
    <supported_sites>
        <site HH_path="~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/PokerStars/HandHistory/xxxxxx/"
              bgcolor="#000000"
              decoder="pokerstars_decode_table"
              fgcolor="#FFFFFF"
              hudopacity="1.0"
              screen_name="nutOmatic"
              site_name="PokerStars"
              site_path="~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/PokerStars/"
              table_finder="PokerStars"
              font="Sans"
              font_size="8">
            <layout fav_seat="5" height="546" max="8" width="792">
                <location seat="1" x="622" y="89">  </location>
                <location seat="2" x="688" y="226"> </location>
and change the HH_path to point at your hand history subdirectory. You can just copy/paste that from the stars client when you turn on saving hand histories.

OK I have the hand history folder now.

But when I open fpdb and click on bulk import it says it cannot find C\/. wine/drive_c/Program Files/Pokerstars/HandHistory.

I cannot see anything resembling 'wine drive' in my C drive but the hand history folder does exist - under Program Files. What is wine drive? The HUD still not working.

When I click on Auto Import every few seconds it says GuiAutoImport.Import_Dir done

What should I do to get the bulk importer and HUD to work?

I have XP.

look at my reply to fozzy's reply to your question.

the bulk importer should work if you just use the browse button to find your hh dir

It worked!!

is this correct syntax - C:\/Program Files\Pokerstars\Hand History ?

How do I get my player stats now?

Is there any way to move the little HUD % boxes around?

donkequity: that's normal, give us hud-error.txt

re: moving hud-stats windows around:
hold down left mouse button on the stat window, and drag it to where you want

re: resizing hud-stats windows:
hold down shift, hold down left mouse button, and drag to the desired size. Cannot go smaller than the font will allow (there's usually a tiny bit of spce that you can squeeze out of the windows at their normal size, if you don't mind them being a bit scrunched together)

Here's an example of some different customiztions that can be done with the HUD-config.xml file, in your %APPDATA% folder .. (you'll need to look at it, and compare it with these lines, to see where these sorts of things go, don't just plug in what i'm showing)

Apologies to all for my response times on the Sourceforge forums and here - Holiday season means i'm not (and i imagine most of the devs) spending much time on this at the moment.

Pocket Trips - you dont have a full extracted version of Fpdb if you dont have the fpdb.py, i can only suggest you download the file from sourceforge again and extract. Try the .tar.gz version if the .zip version isn't working for you.

What client are you using to extract the archive?

I think the version you pulled from Eratosthenes had the new Stars HH format patch reverted to an older version.so the import is starting and failing immediately. If you pull his latest version that bug is fixed.

In Alpha9 i think you need to double click the stat window so you can see the title bar to resize and move.

In Alpha10 they can be moved by left click dragging and resized by shift-left click dragging.

You will be able to manually change the font sizes in the next version too.

This looks like a Vista issue. I dont think we have a proper solution for this yet. Basically its attempting to connect to your PokerStars window so it can determine the window title and position and getting 'Access Denied'

Most tournament types are supported on Stars (Badugi and Mixed Games aren't, rebuys are still importing badly)

The HUD will track across new tables as you move but it takes a new hand before the stats windows update.

We dont currently have a database table to store results/winnings as yet, so you cant do profit graphs etc

Creating a tournament results table and adding import support for importing the text for email notifications is a nice bite sized job for anyone looking to contribute.
