DeIeting imagecache and starting exe fr0m x86 d0es n0t w0rk f0r me Stars.UK

Oops, ur right, thank you. How did the backslash end up being left out from the post, I do not know

So, these are the corrected codes that should actually work:


EU
COM
UK
Paste the one that you need on notepad and save as oldstars.bat ( any .bat name will do ) on your desktop. Double-click the icon for the old client to load up.

Tried the new code but it doesn't work with .uk, I guess it's just an update ahead of EU and COM?

just delete appcache from stars and you get old themes without aurora.

before im open stars i go to my pinned folder of pokerstars cache and ctrlA delete all then open the stars.

In need of help, UK client, imagecach go around not working. Beyond tilt

Jarden96, I tried the UK code on two different PC and it worked both times. Maybe you need to run it as "Administrator"?

Or maybe the PokerStars folder is installed in a non-standard location? You may want to right click on your PokerStars icon then select "Properties" in the contextual menu to find out where the PokerStars client has been installed.

I'm wondering if anyone has seen the same bugs that I'm getting? On my macbook pro (2015 i5 8gb) runs OK but it will randomly fold when I click call. It sometimes doesn't register that I've clicked, I have to move my mouse and then move it back over the button. It sometimes seems that when I click one part of the screen, the app clicks another part of the screen. (I reported these problems when it was still in beta and they did nothing.)

I also tried to play stars on my more powerful dev machine (mbp 2018 i7 q, 16gb), and then I had performance issues - so much so it wouldn't let me open a play money table and told me I didn't have enough system resources. Why could it possibly need so much?

My theory is they do the dev work on linux and run the tests in a virtual machine, and then say "we only have performance issues because it's in a VM and the clicks aren't registering for the same reason".

For now I just can't play, it is just too tilting to press call and see my cards fold. I'm shocked to see so many people still playing on stars, I don't understand it, not everyone who plays can have a super powerful games PC, surely?

The bug I get on Aurora is you can't press return on notes to start a new one

i have to say since using the carbon theme everything is pretty smooth now, i dont see much difference to the old stars. im playing 3-4 tables of zoom and im running PT and starscaption in the background and stream music from youtube. my graphics card is not that good (geforce gt1030 2gb ddr5 64bit) but i have a lot of ram and cores. aurora is on lowest settings.

DEL %LOCALAPPDATA%\PokerStars.UK\ImgCache\*.* /f /q
START C:"Program Files (x86)"\PokerStars.UK\PokerStars.exe

This no longer works on UK version

Yeah agree, carbon, low and disabled animations, all black seems to run ok.

Big grevences are not very good chips on carbon and no full hole cards.

Always had starshelper, so time for caption i guess

@T3achM3

There's a backslash missing from the path on the start command on that one. Try this:

Is this currently working for stars uk? We got an update yesterday which is the reason the img cache fix was no longer working

The problem I have with carbon, when multi tabling is it was easy to make mistakes, as at first glance it's really not obvious from the chip stack if someone has called or raised. Obviously you can look at the amount, and I would have said it wasn't a problem until I actually played with the carbon theme, and I just kept missing things. I guess as all sites change the chip stack sizes, it's something I've taken for granted and I can quickly glance at what is going on.

On top of that, it doesn't fix my main problem of it not always registering a click from time to time.

I think I've just massively lost confidence playing on stars since it's been folding my cards when i click call or min raising when I click fold etc

Bingo! You're right. If you update, you're doomed.

Like aprFool in post #60, I never upgrade so I didn't notice the problem. But I have just upgraded on my laptop and the workaround has stopped working

Edit: If you feel adventurous, you can try restoring the previous version as described on https://www.timemojo.com/psupdate/. I have just done it by copying/overwriting all files from C:\Program Files (x86)\PokerStars.UK\backup to C:\Program Files (x86)\PokerStars.UK\ It seems to be working so far.

I wasn't aware I could skip the update, obv monkeyed off a bunch yday adjusting to the new software.

I'd be so happy if a fix as you've described would work, but my 'backup' is just an empty folder?

Might be because I've just redownloaded the uk client, was trying to get in on the .com or .eu ones yday

yeah thats true, and i also had massive mouse lags today. i have to correct my statement and say: aurora succs

Yes, this worked for me thanks a lot!!

It's working for some people with average computers, but it's still dealing cards a bit late, so you get a lot more timeouts.

Can confirm this works. What a relief to use non-aurora again afer such a lag fest. Thank you.

Someone pls for the love of god tell me what to do if my backup folder is empty

the fonts are too small to read, everything is so awkward

i cant copy/paste the player's name into sharkscope anymore, when i click the name it becomes a dropdown

why do companies always create change that ****s everything up and makes everything worse not better? stupid change for the sake of change OOOooOoh look soo modern, new and improoooved, our NEWNEEEEWWW auroroa!! the old was perfect you ****ing idiots

There is no other known workaround. So either you get the files from someone you trust or you can download my backup (I promise I haven't tampered with it) even though it is a bad security practice.

Thanks, wasn't sure if I could use someone elses. Will get a friend to send theirs. You're a legend for posting this fix.

A big p00 p00
