Stars Buddy List AHK Script - Page 8 - Poker Software -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Thanks for that.. i've been looking through both of those for literally the last four hours.. i got a bunch of little green boxes on the bottom right of my screen, and nothing works.. every time i try to do anything a lil box pops up talking about functions...

all i want something is that when registering for sngs clicks the little button, then clicks ok on the pop up box, saving two keystrokes.. maybe a bet pot and cascade .. and close the table/lobby when its over... if there are any step by step directions out there for someone who is computer illiterate please let me know. other wise i guess i'll just get carpal tunnel way quicker. TIA

Hi,

I am trying to use this script and nothing is happening. If i don't care about stakes, do i need to have postgres? I haven't converted my PT database on my computer since v3 is coming soon.

If i want the basic functionality, should that work with access?

Thanks

If you don't care about stakes, you don't need PT at all.

thanks rubbishaka...i tried that earlier (should have said that) and it didn't work. Not quite sure what it could be as I've followed instructions precisely....maybe the stars software update the other day?

Mkay.

Download and install AHK from www.autohotkey.com/download
Download StarsBuddylist.ahk & Images.zip from http://www.overcards.com/wiki/moin.cgi/StarsBuddyList
extract Images.zip into a new directory, copy StarsBuddyList.ahk there, too
Download functions_v217.ahk from http://www.overcards.com/wiki/moin.cgi/RolandsFunctions, rename it to functions.ahk and copy it to the same directory
create a text file "buddies.txt" with names on each seperate line (like in the very first post)
Start Pokerstars Software and log in
run by double clicking StarsBuddyList.ahk
Press "Refresh"
click on player name to see tables he is on
double click on table to get there

Make sure you have the correct database selected in your preferences (must be postgresql i think) Also check to make sure your HH diectory is correctly set.

You also need the latest version of "functions.ahk"

Most probably a stupid question, but anyways: The script only finds players, who have "Hide from Search Feature" disabled, right?

wouldnt it be possible to implement a search through all tables on the current tab? In the window on the right all player names are visible, which will also find players who have Hide from Search enabled.

Its possible, but won't be implemented by _dave_ and prob against Stars TOS.

Nevermind... found this error earlies in the thread and downgraded to the functions in the .zip file (I upgraded to the latest) and that took care of it.

I've placed functions.ahk, buddies.txt, and StarsBuddyList.ahk, and all image files into the same directory, but I get the following ahk errors:

(I sequentially commented each out to get all 3, then stopped, as the 3rd was in multiple places)

Code:

---------------------------
StarsBuddyList.ahk
---------------------------
Error: Call to nonexistent function.

Specifically: IsCompiled()
	Line#
--->	026: IsCompiled()

Specifically: CheckAHKVersion("1.0.46.09")
	Line#
--->	027: CheckAHKVersion("1.0.46.09")
Specifically: IsPlayerOnlineStars(sn)
	Line#
--->	223: str := IsPlayerOnlineStars(sn)

I checked in Functions.ahk, and they are there... What am I missing?

thx!

I went to this page, and it says that I need to have postgresSQL installed.
I'm still using PT2 with the Access database for now; and don't plan to install SQL until the problems are worked out with either PT3 or HM. Plus I must update computers before then, mine is OLD.

So my question is, since StarsBuddyList has nothing to do with PT is there a version of this that will work properly w/o installing SQL? I hope I can just load AHK, and the necessary scripts/functions without getting into the SQL deal for now.

Thanks

I read the StarsBuddyList page a second time and I quess that _daves_ PostgresFunctions is for matching tables to limits, etc. Which I have no need for; I just want to have a find player function that is not as limited as Stars has.

Thanks again.

I hav dowloaded StarsBuddyList and it appears to be working. Have a few questions about it:

1. Where do you put the folder that the files were unzipped to; or does that
even matter? I considered I could just insert in the PokerStars directory.

2. Does the BuddyList launch with PokerStars or is there an option for that?
If so I have not found it.

3. What is the purpose when you open Preferences of listing the databases I
have (I assume it is referring to PT databases, but maybe not); and what
is the purpose of entering my Hand History folder?

Thanks for the help.

I'm just getting the 'Problem has occured' every single time. I have followed the instructions further up on the page but to no avail, same thing. Could it have anything to do with Vista or something?

Ditto to the "problem has occurred" - I've never been able to get this to work on my newer laptop (vista).

I have postgreSQL 8.2 installed, have converted my PT2 database successfully (runs on PT2), I can edit my buddylist from the script, am logged into stars, have all the stuff in the right directory... can't see anything obvious that I'm NOT doing based on reading this and other threads.

Once upon a time on an older laptop I got it to work correctly, but I could not tell you how I did it, given I remember trying so many different things until it finally worked.

Help?

Anyone else having an issue where the refresh seems to randomly freeze (Stop) during a search?

It seems to never make it past the first 10% of the progress bar, although it doens't stop at the same time... some time is make it past certain players, and other times it doesn't....

I'm not using POSTGRESS, only the basic buddy search.

Any ideas?
