Hi, I have done a quick interim update to the FunkySnooker and FunkyPool Ranking Calculators, which had stopped working due the format changes to the web sites (same problem as blutch's add-on) and the new versions can now be downloaded.

The executable is available here:
http://www.daveehughes.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Downloads/FunkySnookerRankingCalculator.exe

A FunkyPool version is available here:
http://www.daveehughes.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Downloads/FunkyPoolRankingCalculator.exe

Or if you prefer, a Zip Archive containing both versions is available here:
http://www.daveehughes.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Downloads/FunkyRankingCalculators.zip

For those of you that use it, I'm sorry for the inconvenience but I'm still busy and those that haven't a clue what I'm talking about, here is a screen shot:

As this is quick interim build, I have had to roll back to the Version 4.0 Graphics Library (to maintain stability) so you will still get the PNG error
If the user pic is a PNG image (blank images are now PNGs) you will get the following prompt

Just click Cancel as PNG graphics support has not been implemented yet.

Ooops, was that due to the game text name changes? I could look into adding an API which wont be changed by such updates.

Afraid so, but not a real problem Nick, things like that are just a simple change to the configuration file and take about a minute to do (in fact it takes longer to post that I've changed it than it does to do it )

Hi, I have done another quick update to the FunkySnooker Ranking Calculator to include Power Snooker and the new version can now be downloaded.

The executable is available here:
http://www.daveehughes.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Downloads/FunkySnookerRankingCalculator.exe

A FunkyPool version (no changes except version number to keep in step) is available here:
http://www.daveehughes.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Downloads/FunkyPoolRankingCalculator.exe

Or if you prefer, a Zip Archive containing both versions is available here:
http://www.daveehughes.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Downloads/FunkyRankingCalculators.zip

Its a clever app but I can't see myself using it very often. When I go on Funky Snooker I tend to just play who ever is available to play, so calculating the ranks for each game would be time consuming.

Never the less, good work.

Since Nick likes to keep me on my toes (and distract me from doing the graphics update ), yet another version (5.2) is now available.

This version incorporates the Newbie modifications that were done in the latest patch.

As always, the executable is available here:
http://www.daveehughes.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Downloads/FunkySnookerRankingCalculator.exe

A FunkyPool version is available here:
http://www.daveehughes.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Downloads/FunkyPoolRankingCalculator.exe

Or if you prefer, a Zip Archive containing both versions is available here:
http://www.daveehughes.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Downloads/FunkyRankingCalculators.zip

Feel free to add one if you wish - it is much the same as before with a footnote added - all the real changes are 'under the hood'

If only I had waited a couple of hours to see if there were further changes on the way .....

You may have already guessed that Version 5.2.1 is available which incorporates the Ranking Scale changes introduced in the new Tournament Update ( http://www.funkysnooker.com/thread/7540/new-tournament-competition-big-update/1 )

This is available from the usual stockists.

Now updated to Version 5.3 to incorporate the following changes ...

Newbie games reduced from 50 to 30 (FunkySnooker Only)
Match Type selection (so that tournament ranking changes can be calculated as well as normal ranked games) - Note: Friendlies are also included for completeness but is about as useful as a chocolate teapot.

As always, the executable is available here:
http://www.daveehughes.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Downloads/FunkySnookerRankingCalculator.exe

A FunkyPool version is available here:
http://www.daveehughes.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Downloads/FunkyPoolRankingCalculator.exe

Or if you prefer, a Zip Archive containing both versions is available here:

Due to unforeseen circumstances, the above links won't work at the moment (and probably won't be fixed for about a week or so).

In the meantime, they can be downloaded from Windows Live using the following link:

Sorry for the inconvenience and I'll post a notification when normal service is resumed.

There are no updates in these versions by the way so there is no need to download if you already have version 5.3

I think it really needs a decent GUI. The functionality is good, but it looks pretty ugly. I can fix a nice theme up for you if you want?

Thanks for the offer, it is appreciated but no thanks as is not needed.

And yeah James, I had completely forgotten about this lol. Thanks for the heads up about the Pool update, I'll add that in when I get round to finishing the graphics library overhaul. Message me if you want that included sooner and I'll pop it into an interim release for you as that will only take about 10 mins to do.

Just warning in advance that there will also be a 9 ball arcade on pool in the next week or so.

Thanks Nick, I'll hold fire on any updates until then (see I can learn from past mistakes lol),

I take it that there are no imminent (relevant) changes to Snooker on the horizon.
