Winamax has moved all their full-ring scheduled tournaments to 8-max tables. Why? I don’t know.
The current version of Poker Copilot’s HUD has problems remembering HUD panel locations for Winamax 8-max tables. We’ve got a solution ready for you already. The next update of Poker Copilot fixes the problem. If you’d like to have the fix already, you can download and install this early access update.
Please send any feedback for this update to us directly from with Poker Copilot -> Help -> Report an Issue. Or email us.
Today is the day Brazilians change their clocks for daylight saving time. A recent Poker Copilot change doesn’t handle this properly, so today our customers in Brazil are finding that Poker Copilot crashes at startup.
We’ve fixed this, and the fix will be in the next update. If you want the fix already so you can keep playing poker today, 18th October, 2015, you can download this fixed version of Poker Copilot.
On YouTube, I stumbled upon this clear, simple video guide in French. It shows how to configure PokerStars so that Poker Copilot will be able to show the HUD.
Coming in the next Poker Copilot is a feature that has long been on our list of requested features: record multiple hands into one video. Typically this is so you can record a whole tournament to share with your poker coach.
It required us to change the way we created the videos – the approach we were using was fine for a single hand, but wasn’t going to work for a large group of hands.
Here’s how it works:
view a table of hands in Poker Copilot. For example, “Recent Hands”, or drill down into a “Recent Tournament”
in the table, select the hands you want to record. Hold down the shift key while selecting hands so that you can select multiple hands. Or press Cmd+A to select ALL the hands in the table.
Right-click anywhere in the selection. A drop-down menu appears. Select “Record Selected Hands to Video”
Choose a name for the video, click “Start”, wait a moment
Now you have a video! You can open it in QuickTime or with another video player, such as VLC. You can upload it to YouTube.
In recent days, some Poker Copilot customers have suddenly found that PokerStars is no longer recognised by Poker Copilot. The problem is that PokerStars has updated, and strangely, renamed itself as “PokerStars 2” or “PokerStars 3”.
This is also affecting country-specific versions such as PokerStarsDE, PokerStarsIT, PokerStarsFR, and PokerStarsBE. It has suddenly renamed itself to, for example, PokerStarsDE 2, or PokerStarsFR 2.
The solution is simple: go to your Applications folder and rename the application to its original name. So, rename “PokerStars 2” to “PokerStars”. Make sure to delete both the space character and the number 2.
Then restart Poker Copilot, and you’ll find that it now detects PokerStars again.
The next Poker Copilot update will attempt to recognise “PokerStars 2” or “PokerStars 3” as PokerStars.
Poker Copilot works fully with El Capitan. Upgrade freely. We’ve been testing on El Capitan since June. Last night I upgraded my MacBook Pro to El Capitan, and had no problems, save that I was unable to watch NetFlix while the upgrade was happening.
…don’t upgrade until you know your apps are compatible, and even when you do upgrade, make sure you have good Time Machine backups. Waiting for version 10.11.1 to shake out the most obvious bugs is also a good strategy, since that update rarely takes more than a month or so to come out.
If you do experience any problems on Poker Copilot that you think are due to upgrading to El Capitan, please do tell us at support@pokercopilot.com.
Until now, to record a Poker Copilot hand as a video you’ve needed to open the hand in the replayer and click “Record”.
The next update introduces a quicker way to record a hand as a video without having to first open the replayer. Right-click (or ctrl-click) on a hand in the “Recent Hands” table, and you’ll see a new item, “Record hand to video”.
The new menu item has the identical function. It will prompt you for a name and location for the video, and then will generate the video for you. Once the recording is complete, you’ll have the option to open the video directly in QuickTime (or whatever other video player you computer uses to open .mov files), or to show the video in Finder.
We’re making the change in preparation for a new option for recording videos. We’re aiming to make it possible to record an entire tournament as one video. Or any group of hands. We’re not there yet, but this change makes it easier for us to add a group of hands as a video.
I could give you the usual blah, blah reasons to not download a cracked version of Poker Copilot: we’re a small company who work hard on this software, and we need you to buy our software so that we can pay rent, eat food, and save for retirement.
But here is a really good reason that benefits you: some cracked versions of popular poker tools have malware installed. This malware captures screenshots of your hole cards and player nickname on PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker. The screenshots are sent to a server on the Internet, where we can assume someone is finding you at the tables, and taking you to the cleaners.
Currently this malware only seems to be on Windows. But this is a discovered malware. Whether there is such malware in cracked OS X products, we can’t tell. But it is definitely a risk.
When you download and install Poker Copilot directly from our website, you received a secure product that has been code-signed using Apple’s servers. This is a process that assures the software is definitely from us. We need to pay Apple yearly for this privilege.
So don’t put yourself at risk of being cheated at online poker by downloading a cracked version of our software. Download the real thing directly from us at http://pokercopilot.com/.
