hi, i really need some help. pacific has just upgraded their software and unfortunately the left and right arrow keys that move the bet slider up and down in big blind increments no longer work. they are a big part of my game as i do a lot of heads-up multi tabling. i have an old version of pacific in which they work fine but unfortunately every time i install it pacific auto updates the software within a couple of games. i have heard that some people are running the older version and was wondering how they manage to. i am using XP. any help with be very much appreciated and i will ship 20 dollars via paypal/stars/fulltilt to anyone who can find a solution if they want it.

of course a better idea would just be to make a script on ahk or make pokerpad compatible with pacific which would obviously be amazing from my point of view. anyway i truly hope someone can help as this is becoming a real issue. thanks in advance.

This is an AHK script I wrote which enables you to use the scrollwheel to change the betamount.

Scrollup/down +/-1SB
Ctrl + scrollup/down +/-2SB
Shift + scrollup/down +/-10SB
Rightclick + scrollup/down +/-10SB
Middleclick + scrollup/down +/-10SB

I'm sure you'll be able to figure out how to change the amounts, if not let me know.

Tested at 200nl NLHE. I don't think Omaha works right now, but I'll add that if there's interest. Let me know how it goes.

Code:

GroupAdd, Pacific, Hold'em ahk_class #32770

~WheelUp::
ChangeCurrentValue( 1 )
return

~WheelDown::
ChangeCurrentValue( -1 )
return

^WheelUp::
ChangeCurrentValue( 2 )
return

^WheelDown::
ChangeCurrentValue( -2 )
return

+WheelUp::
ChangeCurrentValue( 10 )
return

+WheelDown::
ChangeCurrentValue( -10 )
return

#IfWinActive, ahk_group Pacific
RButton & WheelUp::
ChangeCurrentValue( 10 )
return

MButton & WheelUp::
ChangeCurrentValue( 10 )
return

RButton & WheelDown::
ChangeCurrentValue( -10 )
return

MButton & WheelDown::
ChangeCurrentValue( -10 )
return
#IfWinActive

GetCurrentValue( id )
{
   ControlGetText, amount, Edit1, ahk_id %id%
   return amount
}

ChangeCurrentValue( amount )
{
   MouseGetPos, , , id
   WinGetTitle, title, ahk_id %id%
   If ( SubStr( title, 1, 8 ) = "Hold'em " )
   {
      pos := InStr( title, "/$" )
      bb := SubStr( title, pos + 2, 2 )
      sb := bb // 2
      val := GetCurrentValue( id )
;      if ( val = 2 * bb and amount > 0 )
;      {
;         val := Round( 3.5 * bb, 0 )
;      }
;      else
;      {
         val := val + amount * sb
;      }
;      MsgBox, %val%
      ControlSetText, Edit1, %val%, ahk_id %id%
   }
}

hi. thanks very much for the script. the only trouble is i can't seem to make it work. i know nothing about ahk but i do use pokerpad for all the other sites i play on and i always have it open. i have been trying for the last two hours but i can't make it work. this is the guide i have been following;

(1) Download and install Autohotkey.

(2) Right-click desktop (or whatever location on your disk), choose New > Autohotkey Script.

(2a) Rename the new script from "New AutoHotkey Script.ahk" to "Your Choice of Name.ahk". Don't forget the ".ahk"!

(3) Right-click file, choose Edit Script.

(4) Paste in whatever script, save and close.

(5) Double-click file to run script.

then i try it on pacific and it doesn't work. obviously i have been fiddling about a lot trying out any variables i can think of that may make a difference. i am assuming if i have pacific running and then open the script it should just kick in without me having to restart pacific.

am i doing something wrong? can anyone help? i just need to be guided through it as its the first time i have used the program and i know absolutely nothing about scripts and programming.

also would it be possible for me to change the from the scroll wheeling to the left and arrow keys to change the bet amount. i don't suppose anyone out there has anymore pacific scripts while we are on the subject. maybe some truly amazing person will know how to make pokerpad support pacific. thanks again pomtidom for your help and anyone else who can contribute.

- by the way you have tested this on the new software right??? cheers.
