[PokerStars] Software Improvement Thread - Page 1243 - PokerStars: General discussion -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

I don't have a new update but one thing changed: Before today there was a big red warning when you went to "Contact Us" that the old theme has been permanently disabled, but they are happy to receive feedback about the new one. This warning is now gone, which makes me optimistic that the old theme will be reinstated for everyone.

I wouldn't even mind Aurora that much if the performance wasn't utter garbage. I have a $2k gaming PC that has no issue running modern games at 144FPS ultra settings. Yet with Aurora tables it feels like I'm getting 20fps. What's worse is the client sometimes causes my entire PC to freeze to the point where I can't even open task manager and have to manually reboot. I'm only 2 tabling and have noticed it mostly happens when I try to use the "find a player" feature. Anyone else experiencing something similar?

I dont understand why do you all complain about Aurora engine,because it's working very well and it does look better than the old tables.The whole thing is to adapt at any changes.Poker is all about how you can adapt to the change.Of course the table size is too big and on resize you can barely see the letters,of course you dont see when you added notes to a player,but no one is forcing you to play a gazzilion tables at once

I repeat myself: ADAPT
If that means to buy a new PC,which isnt that expensive,so be it.Hopefully,next step will be to ban all the huds,to bring poker as where it should be

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

Create new notepad document. Save as a .bat file and run it.

Hope it works for you guys.

It's Pokerstars that needs to "adapt" if they expect to collect any more rake from me.

Just strange how when they're losing inf traffic to GG they decide to force update to an inferior software

hello, today I had to format my pc and by reinstalling pokerstars from the site I can no longer return to the old skin by deleting the imgCache folder, it always comes back to Aurora, does anyone know how to help me?

p.s. I also tried to take pokerstars from another old pc but it didn't help

If you have a 8core mac do you think that everyone who complained here has the same type of PC as you have?Ffs,i saw comments regarding a 2014 PC..
We had issues for almost 2months,where i was put on sitout for the most part of the tournaments,time where i lost a lot of money as i dont play pennies.
Like i said,despite the fact that i have difficulties to play on more than 5 tables with a 32" display,because if you resize the tables you wont see the numbers in the bet area,i like this engine and i cant hardly remember how the old one actually looked like

Workaround has dissapeared for me but I can now play one table of Zoom without the software crashing, so I guess a hearty round of applause for Stars is in order...

My computer freeze in 5 minutes even if I just open 1 table to use my chests spin go ticket.

No joke, it is impossible to play.
