Windows XP, all files are located in h:\poker (a network share)

Tried to add the tournament file in app / preferences but can't seem to get it working.

I've noticed the contents of app / preferences changes from machine to machine (where H:\poker is the same folder).


Is there a way to have TM always start with the same preferences ?

That is the largest avatar picture I have ever seen.

Oh wait, there are words to the right... Very Happy

The App / Preferences is a file that is saved to My Documents. So if you move from computer to computer, you have to reset your preferences. But, once they are set on each computer, you are golden.

I test at home and at work so I just got used to it.

Sorry abput the big avatar. I need to figure out how to make them smaller (from a .jpg).

Do you know the name of the file ?

My Documents is re-directed to H:\

I've noticed when I modify the App / Preferences, a file called h:\poker\DrNeauPreferences.drnp gets modified.

First, thanks for designing such a wonderful piece of software. Well worth the $10 lease. You should charge more !

I'm looking forward to our 27 person tourney on Saturday.

I especially like the seating controls. Very slick !!!


Regarding App / Preferences, I located a file called C:\Documents and Settings\kbeamer\DrNeauPrefFileLoc that points to my shared .drnp file

So, I've solved my preferences between my laptop and desktop.

However, I still cannot get our tournement to autoload.

I've added it as the Tournament Template of App / Preferences, but it doesn't load.

I'm using TournamentManager.bat to load TM. It accepts my password, but I have to load the league every time.

Tournament template is for creating NEW tournaments. Existing tournaments do not auto-load. I can't see much of a reason that it would come in handy, to be honest. How many times do you run the same tournament?

My suggestion is to load your tournament file into a league and then the program will auto load the league. All you have to do then is to click on the tournament you want and hit activate.

We made everyone buy in ahead of time (over 30 days) so I've been using TM to track everyone's status.

Also, I've been "getting to know" TM a little more each day with trial runs & console modifications.

So, I've probably "browsed" to the tournament file a hundred times or more...

Auto-loading tournaments would be a nice touch.

Another option would be to have the last opened file at the bottom of the Tournament menu.
