Poker Stars Mod request - will pay $$ ($25?)

[The Funky Llama]

hmm, I was referring to the BAT file that kidpoker made. It seems like he only needs to copy a few files instead of whole directories.

is it possible to just copy only the few files that DPR changed instead of all these directories?

Well, it's 38 files, meaning 38 copy commands as opposed to only two directories and two command lines. So the answer is yes it can be done. But you'll have to do it. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I can do it...can you tell me what I need to do? Alternatively, I'll pay you 20 if you can do it for me. Its still kind of taking a long time to load.

I'm not a programmer. I just know a little about DOS and basically I just got lucky.


COPY [/D] [/V] [/N] [/Y | /-Y] [/Z] [/A | /B ] source [/A | /B]
[+ source [/A | /B] [+ ...]] [destination [/A | /B]]

source Specifies the file or files to be copied.
/A Indicates an ASCII text file.
/B Indicates a binary file.
/D Allow the destination file to be created decrypted
destination Specifies the directory and/or filename for the new file(s).
/V Verifies that new files are written correctly.
/N Uses short filename, if available, when copying a file with a
non-8dot3 name.
/Y Suppresses prompting to confirm you want to overwrite an
existing destination file.
/-Y Causes prompting to confirm you want to overwrite an
existing destination file.
/Z Copies networked files in restartable mode.

The switch /Y may be preset in the COPYCMD environment variable.
This may be overridden with /-Y on the command line. Default is
to prompt on overwrites unless COPY command is being executed from
within a batch script.

What you need to do is write a COPY command for each file DpR mentioned. You can edit the .bat file using Notepad. The command is similar to the XCOPY command in my existing .bat file and you would use the same general format, just 38 different times representing each file that needs to be copied. It'll look something like this:

COPY /Y (source file) (destination file)

Again, look at the way my current XCOPY commands are structured. You'll want to copy the files from the source to the same target directories you'll see in my XCOPY, then back again once the pokerstars program has loaded. So I guess in actuality you'll be doing 38x2 or 76 commands.

Good luck!

Your guys' black mods are so dreary. I'm running so hot since I made this fruity mod. Thanks DPR!



I can host/send the cards/table/bat if anyone likes.

I've combined my old Part mod to AEKD's excellent PS mod and so far it looks almost like this:



The dark circle in the upper left corner is photoshopped to represent how I'd like the empty-seat icons in my mod to look like, but I have no clue how I would do that. Any ideas?

took me about 20 hours + (table mod excluded)

[KLJ]

ok how much are you charging?

Here's my Stars mod. I really just made this for myself but there seems to be some interest in these. So please take a look and let me know if you guys would be interested in my mod.


List of changes (I might forget one or two):
-Changed cards to simple, solid colors that are easier on the eyes.
-Changed card backs to bright yellow/black trim so it's easier to see how many people are still in the hand.
-Total pot indicator moved to the middle.
-Rake moved to top center of the table.
-Dealer button changed (I like it but my friend says it looks stupid. I might still modify it some more.)
-"Leave table" and "view lobby" buttons in the top right removed.
-Call is now bright green.
-Bet and Raise are now bright red.
-The edging around the little circles have been removed so it's just the gray circles now.
-Empty seats are now easier to notice since I removed the rectangle box with name and stack from the empty seats.
-I also removed the "Seat Open" and "Empty Seat" texts from open seats.
-Layout button moved to the top left of the chat box.
-The line between the player's name and his stack amount is removed.
-Options button removed visually (Clicking where it used to be still brings up the options box and the area for that button has been increased to the whole top middle area of the table for easier reloading).
-Table and background image modified slightly. "PokerStars" removed from the middle of the table and "DSS" removed from the bottom right corner of background.

I'm taking a guess, but I think you may be able to get it to look the way you want by modifying the files:

border.bmp
borderb.bmp
seat.bmp

in each subdirectory of the Pokerstars\Themes\(your mod directory)\actions directory.

In fact, the seat.bmp file in this directory \Pokerstars\Themes\original\label isn't 100% black, but it's close to the way you want it to look.
