FPHG available

juk,

i've been mining SNGs and quite often it seems on the last hand, it catches the 2nd place winner, but stops capturing data before the 1st place winner is listed. (so it'll import that they lost $, with "N/A" for finish) Is there a setting I can change to catch more data after the hand is finished?

Thanks and my apologies if this has been addressed before - quite long thread.

Thanks.

Try editing run.bat to look something like this:

@echo off
freephg.exe -p 1 -d 200


This will make it eat more CPU time and always keep FPHG at a slightly higher priority than anything else. It may help your problem (assuming your PC is fairly fast) but I can't say for sure.

Juk,

The program runs great and continues to be very helpful.

One previously occasional, minor glitch now seems to have become permanent that I thought you would want to know about.

Specifically, the location where the observed.*.hhf files are being stored moves itself from FreePHG folder to another location.

This happened three other times where the .hhf files where being stored in a folder of a utility dashboard program I use called Pathfinder.

Finally, I figured out that, maybe, reinstalling FreePHG, I have v.06, might solve the problem ... it did.

But, all of a sudden today it started happening again.

I finally found the .hhf files being gathered by FreePHG were being stored in 'C:\Program Files\PokerAce Hud\Data\Temp\Party.'

I tried reinstalling FreePHG but the .hhf files still keep getting sent to 'C:\Program Files\PokerAce Hud\Data\Temp\Party.'

Now, in PokerTracker, I just moved the path from 'f:\Program Files\FreePHG' to 'C:\Program Files\PokerAce Hud\Data\Temp\Party'
I needed to install FreePHG on my 'f' drive since I was concerned about space limitations on the 'c' drive.

Suggestions? Advice? Is the fact that I have FreePHG installed on another drive, not the 'c' drive, causing a conflict??

I think it's more likely that PAHUD is grabbing section of the same hand histories from memory and these are what you are seeing in the PAHUD folder.

Overall FPHG is so simply in the way it works, that I can't see any way if could possibly be moving them off to another folder (it only has the ability to save the .hhf to the folder where it started).

For similar reasons reinstalling FPHG wont make much difference, as again its so simple (unless it's somehow getting corrupted on a corrupt Hard Disk?).

It could be that their is a bug in FPHG causing the files to not be written and you are looking at the files in the PAHUD folder thinking these are the same (if this is the case nobody else has reported this though.).

I'll post this on 2+2 forum and see if anybody else has any ideas.

Anybody else have any idea whats going on here or sen anything like this before? (FPHG is too simple to be moving the files off to somewhere else and just can't do it as far as I know...).

this link works fine now!? Thanks

[deviouz]

is there any chance you could modify this to work with other poker sites? I would kill for a Paradise version

I'm also experiencing strange things with the location of saved .hhf files. If I start FPHG manually it will save files in the same folder; if I start it by script, it will save files in the same folder as the script.

No big deal, but it would be nice if all files always were saved in the FPHG folder, instead of my script folder, which has gotten quite full by now. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Like I said, no biggie, but I've got an easy fix for this. If you include the working directory it works. For instance, if I have a folder "Scripts\", and a folder "Scripts\FreePHG\", I can use the following code in script file "Scripts\OpenFPHG.ahk" to open up FPHG and have it save HH files in its own folder:

Run, FreePHG.exe, FreePHG\

As Juk said, FPHG is very simple, but it's technically wrong to say it only writes files into the folder where it's installed. Technically, it writes the files into the "current folder" of the command instance it runs in.

That means if you run it from a prompt or batch file, it will drop the files in the directory you were in when you ran the batch. That's usually the same folder it's installed in.

If you run it from a shortcut on your desktop, the files will go elsewhere! But if you make a shortcut, you can set the option in the shortcut's properties for "start in", and tell it what folder to run in - that's the folder which will get the files.

Yes, it just runs as a normal CLI app (I should really have added an option for the name of the folder to save to - this would save making shortcuts, etc). When I get round to adding the GUI, then I'll make sure you can select a different folder (somebody already asked for this in a PM a bit back).
