HUD stopping for all but Hero (?)

Postby WillySutton » Wed Sep 10, 2008 3:46 am

OK, I've tried all the housekeeping stuff ... numerous times. Nothing seems to work. The HUD stops updating player stats except mine after about 50 hands. Restarting the HUD, stopping PT3 and restarting it, doing the housekeeping does NOT work. This leaves me to wonder if ANY of the stats that are popping up are valid at all! Very unnerving during a long session. Kind of makes the HUD usless and leaves a lot of questions about what else might be going on inside there! Has this been reported ... is there an immediate fix ... a fix in the future ... distant future or some time Real Soon Now? BIG QUESTION -- can I go back to beta 16 since it seemed to at least update the HUD player stats?

PT3 beta 17
using mostly default HUD stat displays (added table stats)
small database --- started only the middle of August
6 max tables
2 tables max
Limit Hold'em
PokerStars

Beta 16 will not work for pokerstars since they updated their hand histories.
When the stats stop updating, are hands still being auto-imported? Can you see the full number of hands in the main application if you Refresh the reports?

Check the HUD Options tab of HUD config, and look at the Refresh Rates.
As the number of hands you have on a player gets bigger, their stats update less often on the HUD.
Does this explain it?

I see ... there was a simple explanation afterall. Must have been that big bowl of Stoopids I had for breakfast. Sorry 'bout that. The problem was in my hud options. Somewhere along the line I must have changeed it. All is well now. I had about lost my faith in everything but gravity and Shauna Hyatt. Whew!

But ... while I have your attention, something a little off topic? Are the colors for HUD Amout Won (in dollars) hard coded red as a loss and green as a gain with zero being white?

Thanks guys!

The colours for money stats aren't hard-coded as such, but they are specified in the formatting of the stats. They are formatted using the "format_money" function, and this includes colour information which cannot be overridden in the HUD by colour ranges.
If you want to change this, then you would need to open the Custom Stats window (Customize -> Customize Stats) and find the Amount Won stat in the 'holdem cash player statistics' section, and then Duplicate it and change the formatting of your copy and use this in the HUD.

Thanks, again, for the "off topic" answer. I really do appreciate the help! Got my fingers crossed waiting for the Auto Rate functions. Good luck all...
