Configure prefetched hands # ?

[zanton]

Is there a way to configure the number of prefetched hands ?

It was supposed to be implemented, but I don't know if it was done.

For UB you can edit the prefs.xml file manually but we dont have any menus to do the same at present. For Stars we will add an on/off switch soon.

What is the parameter to modify ? I can't find it

You need to add the values to the following line in the prefs.xml file:-

<HUDprefs>
<General>
<prefs font_size="8" font_name="Verdana" font_attr="1" background="0" text_color="26" popup_color="17" alt_popup_color="15" alt_background="1" overhang="640" flicker_free="True" show_abrev="False" opacity="9" popup_timer="750" mucked_card_opacity="7" mucked_cards_time="2" mucked_card_test="False" seperate_panels="True" main_popup="DEFAULT Main Popup" logging="False" pots="2" avg_vpip="True" avg_pot="False" fix_my_stats="True" lock_hud="False" disable_hero="False" force_topmost="False" scale_fonts="True" />

UB_Pre_Fetch=10 UB_Delay=2000 UB_Timer=5

the first value is the number of hands to fetch initially, the 2nd is the delay in between fetching the hands in milliseconds, the 3rd value is how often to check for a new history in seconds.

You should make these changes after HM is running. When it starts it will probably reset the changes.

Do you mean I have to change these values everytime I run HM ?

[Mike chops]

Yes. You could make a copy of the editted prefs.xml and copy it into the config folder.

Allright, thank you for the answers

Do you know if it's planned in the next release to have a way to change permanently these values ?

Yes when we get 1.6.2 solid we can look at some additional menus
