No full support for Cake?

[Mazter81]

The changes for the new beta-edition promised this:

Full HUD support added for Cake Network in compliance with Terms of Service changes

I expected that this meant, that you'd have access to stats from more sessions than the current - as you'd have on most sites - but that didn't work out for me

SO - are my expectations wrong or is there an issue with the update or my settings?

That should now be the case, but it won't be back-dated - you won't get stats from sessions you played before the update as the player names from those were masked.

[Mazter81]

OK. Thanks.
That's probably the issue

I'll try it our later tonight :)

[Mazter81]

I'm not seeing any changes - except the full playername are available in the HUD and the hand histories.

Currently I'm sitting with the same guy at 4 tables and the stats at all 4 tables are for that table session only, and all the tables are 6-max at the same level

Perhaps I should add that I have already upgraded the poker client and PT3

Are you able to see his stats in the main PT3 window?

How about after using the alias to equate the two names?

While I'm at it, are any HUD layouts other than the default VPIP/PFR/AFq?

[WhiteRider]

That would work in theory, but you should not see the old masked names in the player list, so I don't think you'll be able to alias them. Furthermore, there could be some name clashes since we only know the first 4 characters of the masked names, and there will be one name for each seat that you previously saw that player play in.

[WhiteRider]

Sorry - I need to correct myself.

Cake's EULA still only allows HUDs to display stats from the current session, so this is all PT3 will show you, and no workaround will be provided for this.
Sorry for the confusion.

Aliasing seems to work fine, with the caveat that the aliased notes vanish, so copy them to the full name player first. Yes, sometimes you have to guess "Is this the same villain?" though sometimes the stats strongly suggest that it's the same one (or not).

Fie upon the Cake EULA! :x

I was going to ask if any other HUDs are compatible, but those 3 stats are about the only ones that converge fast enough to have any meaning in a single session.
