Stars Auto Reloader (NL & Limit) - New AHK Script

[Mrage]

Dave,

The script is working great here. Just one question - how can I edit the script so that my hotkey is only active if I have a table focused? I want to use MButton on my mouse for the hotkey, but I also use it to open links in Firefox. I have made some ahk scripts in the past and used IfWinActive, to accomplish this, am I headed in the right direction?

I seem to bet getting the same MZ error. I'm sorta code illiterate, but it seems like this is what is happening:

the auto reload script creates a file named _StarsAutoRebuy_0x79057c

and the contents of this script is:
#NoTrayIcon
table_id := "0x79057c"
justdone := 0
screenname := "****"
Loop
{
IfWinNotExist, ahk_id%table_id%
{
ExitApp
}
WinGetTitle, title, ahk_id%table_id%
StringMid, bb, title, InStr(title, "/") + 1, InStr(title, a_space,"", InStr(title, "/")) - InStr(title, "/") - 1
bb := StrRep(bb, "$")
desired_chips := bb * 100
StringTrimRight, title, title, (StrLen(title) - Instr(title, " - ", true, 0))+1
est := A_NowUTC
est += -5, hours
FormatTime, est, %est%, yyyyMMdd
filename := "C:\Program Files\PokerStars\HandHistory\*****\HH" . est . " " . title . ".txt"
StringReplace, filename, filename, /, -
FileGetSize, fsize, %filename%
if (fsize)
{
FileGetTime, ftime, %filename%
if (ftime > oldftime)
{
Sleep, 40
oldftime := ftime
FileRead, hh, %filename%
StringTrimLeft, hh, hh, Instr(hh, "PokerStars Game #", true, 0)-1
StringTrimLeft, chips, hh, InStr(hh, screenname)
StringTrimLeft, chips, chips, InStr(chips, " (")+2
StringTrimRight, chips, chips, StrLen(chips) - InStr(chips, " ")+1
if (justdone)
{
justdone := 0
continue
}
if (chips < desired_chips)
{
RebuyStars(table_id, "max")
justdone := 1
}
}
}
Sleep, 40
}


MZ�

in my version there's that lil box after MZ.

if you guys can fix this, i'd greatly appreciate it

Well I just tried using the old chip reloader script and it no longer seems to work for me. I wonder if there is some connection?

[disco_stu1978]

was there anything in the new stars patch that would have messed with this?

[magus]

Is there anything that can make it reload every time you're in a hand in the small blind? (that way you always have at least a full stack when you're on the button, but it's not reloaded while you're out of position.)

has anyone gotten a chance to look at the mz thing?

Hi Ph1sh_Phood,

I don't know what causes the MZ thing... but I have some idea what is wrong.

Maybe you need to update AHK to the latest version, or maybe download the script again.

Most likely you have some kind of "access control" restrictions set up in your OS, that is preventing the script from reading itself.

In the example auto-generated script you posted above, where yours says MZ it should have a large chunk more code - Everything in the main script below the comment line ";-----CHOP----"

It would seem for you and the other MZ sufferer, the FileRead line (or the subsequent StringTrimLeft is failing, so instead of writing the rebuy function to the generated code, for some reason it writes "MZ". Weird.

If you put add some MsgBox lines around the FileRead area of the code, maybe this will give some clue - i.e. does it manage to read the file at all? Can you edit the code to do this?

dave.

[disco_stu1978]

hey dave, have we found the issue with why the limit tables are not auto reloading?

I use betpot perfectly, so I do not think the problem is with my setup (i figure if one of your scripts work, the other should too?)

I can post the entire customized section of the script if that would help, but for now the auto reloaad does not work, and neither does the F1 (well, it reloads, but it reloads the stars auto buy-in, not my specified amount)

Either "3" or "+3" - I don't think anyone reported which one worked.

Or you can set your Windows clock to EST just to test.
