Beta Testing / Re: Stat screen Bug
« on: July 25, 2006, 01:03:35 PM »
Dang it, that's because there is an image missing.  You should be seeing a pair of arrows indicating where the column will be placed should you drop it at that time.  I'll post an update this evening.

As for #1: You didn't describe how you imported your DB from your current install of version 2.1.2, but my guess is that you exported your players to a CSV file and then imported them the same way.  Yeah, this will not work the way you expect.  The problem is that each player (and league and season) has a unique internal (ie, the user never actually sees it) identifier, and that is what is referenced in your saved tournaments.  So as far as the software knew, the players in your 2.2 database were entirely different from your players in your 2.1.2 database, even though they had the same name, etc.

Here's a better way to do what you were attempting:  Use the "Backup" button on the Database page.  Backup the database and then unzip the resulting backup file into where you are installing the new version.

Oops.  Yeah, that's exactly how I imported the data.  Forgot to mention that :P  But as I said, I just copied the older version of the program into a new folder and installed 2.2 over it and it worked fine, probably because the internal identifiers were still all there.

So far the only problem I'm having with the program is that it's running slow for me.  Lagging I mean; it runs in real time, but whenever I go to do anything (change screens, bust out a player, change an option mid-game) or when the blinds change automatically, the program runs slowly.  So far that seems to be the only "problem" I've run into during the dummy tournament I ran.

Beta Testing / Stat screen Bug
« on: July 25, 2006, 10:39:30 AM »
Something small, but I'd like to know if this is the same for everyone else.

1) I installed 2.2 into a new folder, then imported the player DB, and imported my current league and season.  When I tried to refresh the stats page, all the tournaments were filtered, but none of the players were filtered.  After playing with the filters for a bit, I finally opened an old tournament and found out that none of the players in the old tournament were listed as being in the database, even though I had imported the database from the last version.  Was this expected?

To remedy this easily, I uninstalled 2.2, created a copied folder of 2.1.2 and installed 2.2 over 2.1.2.  That retained my DB, settings, etc.

2) When I move the column tabs around by clicking and dragging them, a red "X" appears like there's a missing image.

Help Me / Re: Points only bounties
« on: July 23, 2006, 10:07:15 PM »
Hmmm . . . I think you're right.  I don't think there's an easy way to do what you'd like to.  Maybe Cory can link the "Bounty on player" under the price tab to the "Bounties Won" stat on the stat page.  I'm actually a little surprised it doesn't already, but they are separate options.

Templates, Layouts and Sounds / Re: Displaying Rankings on Main Page
« on: July 23, 2006, 10:35:53 AM »
Sure.  There's a display token called "Rankings" you can use for that.  Just create a blank display cell, click the "Insert Token" button, and find "rankings" on the list.

Well, the easiest way to do that is under the prize tab.  You can set up a specific bounty on a specific player for a award of points.

Help Me / Re: late or missed bounty chip purchases
« on: July 22, 2006, 10:43:55 AM »
I think all you have to do is go to the player's tab and double click the player who you missed.  In the screen that now comes up, in the bottom part labeled "Tournament History" double click on the line that says "Initial buyin."  From there, set the bounty amount from $0 to the amount of the cost of the bounty chip.  I believe this will work, but we don't use bounties so I haven't tried yet.

Help Me / Re: Points for playing in past Tournaments
« on: July 18, 2006, 10:46:43 AM »
I don't believe you can use a formula for starting chip amounts, and even if you could, I'm sure the program's not set up to read the stats page for it.  The only option really available for you is to set each of their chip amounts at the buyin window.

Help Me / Re: When the blinds change so does the screen
« on: July 18, 2006, 09:27:32 AM »
When you say "changing," how exactly do you mean?  What's changing exactly?  Does it change back during odd numbered rounds?  There are options in each display cell to change what it displays from odd rounds to even rounds.

Help Me / Re: duplicate players
« on: June 26, 2006, 10:23:50 PM »
Hmm . . . you might have to go through each of your tournaments and change the player from that player's copy to the original player.  I don't think there's a way to do this automatically.

Suggestions / Re: Filtering tournaments
« on: June 22, 2006, 08:55:47 AM »
If I set up a league, can I assign tournaments already played into the league?

I'm pretty sure you can; you'll just have to open the original tournament file, change the settings under the "Game" tab, and resave the file.

So odd . . . how about the tournament that loads from the start?  Do you have one or is it blank?

« on: June 14, 2006, 09:51:18 AM »
Well, here's just a random guess, but under the "Preference" tab, what's listed as your Tournament File Location?  It's the option at the bottom of the screen.

Help Me / Re: Tables
« on: June 13, 2006, 10:11:33 AM »
If I'm understanding you correctly, and I'm not sure I do, when you create the tables you need to tell the program each table only has 7 seats instead of 10.  The program will combine the group at the first chance it gets.

I personally just keep track of everything myself, using MSExcel to aid me in that.  Then, I just post all the results on our leage's own website ( www.oregonpokertour.com ).

I've never really thought about using these sites: are they really that much more useful?

Help Me / Re: prizes
« on: June 12, 2006, 10:25:14 AM »
All you need to do is change the name of the prize under the "Prizes" tab.  There's an option called "Display" and it controls what's shows up on your display.
