Ok,
I have released a new version which somewhat addresses some of the suggestions here..

It adds the most asked for feature, saving/loading of last game on exit. It also adds a $3000 starting choice, and a choice of instant play for the computer players... It doesnt show "winner" for players in their own secondary pots. Several other fixes and
enhancments were added as well.. Check out version 1.01!!

Doh! Just downloaded the now-old version yesterday! But thanks for the quick response and update!!

Must congratulate on a throughly impressive product. After becoming addicted to various poker programmes on the TV, I was waiting to someone to implement an "texas all in" for the ppc. Well done.

That said I must admit that having downloaded v1.0 I haven't had time to register but will be doing so.

However in the spirit of looking for improvements (and forgive me if these are already in subsequent releases) could I suggest the following?

1. Would it be possible for the "human" player to have some sort of career total of winnings (or losses) record in $? It would be interesting to see how this evolves over time, and perhaps a good indication of how well you play.

1a - as a follow on to the above the ability to record more than one human name.

2. Could multiple tables/tournaments be included, i.e you play one table and if you win, take you winnings onto the next table, and so on until your win the overall tournament? Probably would need specifying number of starters, and round conditions e.g number of rounds (but that might be derived by the number of starters) top one or two players going forward to the next table etc.

3. Is there anyway to slow down the computer players. Sometime I find that they play so fast that I do have time to assimilate how/what they are playing. Or it that just me?

4. Finally is there any plan to convert to this into a palm version?

Cheers

Thanks for the great suggestions... I will definitely consider them...

When is the computer players speed to fast.. And you dont
have "CPU play instantly" on in settings do you?? I do have it
setup so if you are not in the game the players play instantly
regardless, is this the problem?

I hope to port it to Palm and the desktop as well very soon!


Thanks

Thanks for the prompt reply. Very pleased to hear that Palm (not necessarily for this forum though!) and desktop versions may well be on the way.

As for the computer players speed. I was using v1.0 and so don't think I have the "CPU play instantly" option available. Where I raise this speed issue is a normal game where I am still in. What happens is that having made my play, the computer players then play but at a speed which is similar to that when I am no longer in the game. ie. too fast to really take in what is happening.

Probably my novice poker status here but the computer players are just to fast for me to remember how each has/is playing the current hand. Might it be possible to have a option to increase the delay for the computer players?

Then again it may be just me.


Cheers

I just bought this yesterday, but was unable to find my registration or info on how it is delivered. How is it delivered (I assume e-mail) and how long does it normally take? Thanks.

You should recieve the registration with you reciept email,
with instructions on how to register it. You can get the software,
from where you purchased it or on my site (demo version) and
use the registration to unlock it... Hope this helps...


I will consider the speed of the players issue too for a future release...

Thanks

Im not positive what this means.. but you should be able to hit the little arrow in the corner if you want to rotate the table, if thats what you are saying/asking?!!?

The newest version is 1.01!

Hope this helps...

Rats, just when I thought I had conquered my game addiction, now I find this game.......

Next thing you know, 12 step programs for Axim users :D

Doggy Daddy

Brian,

Yup, that was my problem - not realizing the window rotate button was there.

Thanks! The game is great!
