ROOOOLLLLLLLBACKKKKKK

I think it is absolutely ridiculous that pertinent issues like crashes and table filters get completely ignored and Full Tilt spends all this wasted time on ****ty new cards and a hand history replayer that honestly doesn't do anything the old player didn't do.

But you know what I hate more? The ****ing UIGEA. If it wasn't for that I'd have been playing glorious Party Poker for all these years. Lets hope and pray for regulation so google or harrah's can open up a poker room.

They almost never do respond there.

grrrrr, the cards of myself and my opponents just disappeared. that freaking ridiculous while playing on 6 tables... pls fix this

I can't even logon to the FTP forums fwiw either

Not sure why... just can't

Not too thrilled with the update - the minuses far outweigh the plusses. You have to realize that a lot of multitablers (like me), need/like to use a number of pieces of third party software to play "comfortably", whether it's a hud, shortcuts, mods, table selectors, calculators, etc. Otherwise, it makes it difficult/unpleasant to play as many tables, or even play at all. Looking at the tables now, it looks like there are at least 25% fewer tables. This is not a coincidence.

I finally got HEM to work, but other 3rd party items could take weeks or longer to fix. I think I pay you like $13K a month in rake, and I'm pretty sure, that number will drop noticeably going forward - not because I'm bitter or don't understand that you're trying to improve the software. But it is physically impossible and unpleasant for me to play nearly as many hands as I used to in the same number of hours, with only your current software and the lack of third party software. It used to be that I could play more tables "comfortably" on FT than Stars, but now, I think I can play more tables "comfortably" on Stars than FT (since all software still works on Stars). As loyal as I am to FT, I'm probably going to be tempted to play more over there, but I'll give it a go without for a few days and reevaluate. But it would be terrible for you longer term if I started playing Stars and actually got used to the software, especailly since I think I could make a run at SNE there.

The main point of my post is that you are a major poker site and you have to realize you do not operate in a vacuum. You do not really have a great stand-alone product - it is the 3rd party software that generates a lot of your incremental revenue. Rather than working against the people who write software for your platform, you should try and work more to be proactive about keeping the third party software developers abreast of any potential changes and timetables. In that way, you're not that dissimilar to Microsoft's Windows division or Sony's Playstation division. You can make a decent product, but all the software that is made for your platform is what's going to bring in a huge chunk of your revenues. For example, the issue with the new cards... you can't be expected to make every combination of card layout - so just let someone else (thrid party) do it for you. It'll make the end user happier and probably have them play more on your site. But just surprising everyone with your secretive rollout does no one any good. How about sending out an email to all of us (especially third party developers), letting us know that you're rolling out, so that we can plan ahead? And I would hope going forward you can include the software developers in your plans.

Thanks.

The good news :- I have found a workaround.

The bad news :- It involves disabling the anti-virus.

Mine is Avast - I had to disable ALL the on-access scanners before this would work. (Even having one of them running will hang on 'Connecting...').

Disable Avast, open FTP client, as soon as the full client screen and login window appears re-enable Avast, login and it works.

If you're using Symantec, Norton, AVG or some other antivirus, your results may vary.

(NB : it doesn't appear to be a firewall thing; I have ZoneAlarm, configured to allow fulltiltpoker.exe access, and it works just fine.)

Hope this helps those who've had the same problem. I can't tell precisely why it's happening; Avast isn't logging anything when it's turned on and the client is hanging with 'Connecting...' (if there was a virus string, I'd expect an alert). I am imagining that FTP has changed something internally e.g. is using different ports for some comms, or is trying to read/write the PC HD a different way than it used to. But I'm not going to go sniffing ports right now, I will leave that to FTP, it's their job.

NB : This is ONLY a temporary workaround, to save having to restart the PC every time we want to start the FTP client. It is NOT an ideal solution obviously (try forgetting to restart the antivirus, and see what your PC catches), and in any case FTP MUST fix this client.

(And because I know someone is going to ask this :- Q: Did this happen with Avast and any versions of the FTP client before today's version? A: No. Only today's version is broken.)

This just in.. FTP is in the business of making money. They could care less about the one percent of their players who frequent this forum and others like it. They want to keep Dick and Jane Donk happy. They are the backbone of any business. New money! Lemmings like this need new bells and whistles, from time to time, to keep themselves entertained. It keeps them from playing in their own poo. If stupid new cards and bad customer support keeps them happy, then I am all for it! All that we can do is adjust and continue to profit from their bad play. Some of you may have decided to try another site, but the donks could care less and aren't going anywhere.

and the betslider and I want my mods back

Poor you. Take off the training wheels and play real poker...if you can.

Fix for the lag issue (worked for me):

Control Alt Delete -> Processes -> FullTiltPoker.exe (right click) -> Set Priority -> High


If you want to have your holecards bigger (and uglier):

Full Tilt Lobby -> Options -> Show Full Cards

this is bull****. why the **** isn't my hand replayer working? it's not loading up any hands at all and is just stuck at the stupid gray screen everywhere. i've clicked between ring games and tournies button too and NOTHING ****ING WORKS

disagreed, just finished a session of 12-16 tabling, the cards have grown on me already. just switch to show full cards and do it 4 colours, perfect imo.

Well, after hours of work I still can't seem to understand how to convert the Waffle cards into a working SVG set. I make each card a seperate PNG file, open it in Inkscape and then save it as a SVG file, but when I open back up the SVG file it brings up a picture with a red X and text saying something to the effect of "Linked Picture Not Found".

Anyone know what's up?

Translation-

Heres the download: LINK

Im off to bed now but any problems PM me.

can people please stop saying HUD users arent playing real poker? people who use huds have more info on their opponents thus can make better decisions. better decisions = more money. DUCY?

yea you can go into the program files and change the cards etc.


the "pro" and "private" avators are not locked or anything so you can replace the "public" avators with either of those etc. At the moment i am phil ivey lol. Obv. others cant see it but its only you.


You can also change around the backgrounds etc.


Also if your getting the error while trying to update that: "full tilt poker .exe in use by another application" etc. you can go to c:, program files, ful tilt poker, and just delete the application that looks like your shorcut on the desktop...

Translation-

Me and a few whiny guys in this thread [who represent about 0.00001% of FullTilt players] don't like the cards, so change them just for us.

Of course I understand the benefits. I just consider it a form of cheating. And I think a whole lot of you guys would struggle without it -- DUCY?

Online Poker and Live Poker are 2 different animals...

I am tired of people like you claiming that just because people play 16 tables and decide to use tools that almost every one else uses, that they are inferior players.

So I guess the coaches at CR, Stox, DC etc are all just wanna bees and would be **** players if not for the HUDS and stats, and you would tear them apart because you play a more "pure" style of poker.

If HUDS are not for you, If short cuts are not for you, thats fine. To judge someone else just because they want to make their lives easier, and possibly make more money per hour because of it, doesnt make them inferior...it makes them smart!

Let me guess...you don't use a HUD, you're a losing player, and this is your excuse for why you lose?

Please tell me that's not the cards I am seeing posted here.
