Title: Canasta Helper
Post by: Mayhem on July 29, 2004, 03:50:18 PM
If you don't care about winning games and just want it to play game after to game to collect red 3's and build your ranks ...

I whipped up a quick "helper" that will do this for you.

So far it will only work with MS Java and IE browser.

First load up a room (best to password lock it).
Press "Start Game"
Load up Canasta Helper and take a nap  :P

Works fine on my computer, but post any bugs here. (might not be able to update any possible bugs till tomorrow morning)

Download it Here (http://www.pogocheats.net/files/CanastaHelper.exe).

Welcome  ;D

Forgot to mention ..

This "helper" will not make melds or anything. It simply picks up cards and discards them .. and thats it.

Title: Re: Canasta Helper
Post by: DJ_ on July 30, 2004, 08:14:59 AM
The latest Canasta helper reloads the game if there are no moves made for about 50 seconds, that should keep the game going when it freezes up.
(Note! This feature only works when clicking the practice with bots link)
Pogo has been booting people all week all over pogo, there is nothing I can do about that.... it's out of my hands.
Title: Re: Canasta Helper

hay all, i hope one of the programmers can help!!  the new helper does not work for me.  here is the following info over my system....IE 6.0, wind.98, 24bit true color, 1024*768.  when i start my game up it is in the middle of my screen, but when i start the helper up it moves my game screen to the bottom left side of my screen.  also my mouse is a bit erratic. and the helper is 2nd from the right in my tool bar("macro" "20:31").  i hope this info helps!!   8)

i keep gettting booted from the rooms also, very odd everytime i walk away from my pc the screen to join a table is there and the table i was at is now empty.I did get over 40 3's though :)
Title: Re: Canasta Helper
Post by: DJ_ on July 30, 2004, 02:05:41 PM
I may have to remove the reload feature in the program, that's the only thing I can think off that's causing that.
You may want to change the timer to 75 seconds and give that a try 1st.
Let me know if that helped

when i say it boots me from the room i mean the tbl down.  i can't get on another tbl after it seems to freeze.  i think it's a time issue with me... like if i am playing someone and they are taking their sweet time i get kicked off the tbl. but it also happens playing with 3 other computers.

Check out the table settings I'm using to run the helper, here (http://www.pogocheats.net/yabbse/index.php?topic=4327.msg27376#msg27376) ......The helper was written for 2 player games, stick with that and use the same table setup I'm using.  ;)
Hope this helps

I think thats Bull how can you  make that kind of mistake and why would you copy and paste your own name I also know that person and now I know about three people who are with drawing from Pogo Cheats  because of this  they could be banned because of your (little mistake) and they have had that name forever and they do care very much  I still don't see how anyone could make a mistake like that

I need a little help with the canasta helper.  I've set my settings like recommended but when I set it to play with a computer when the game is over it won't start a new game.  When I set it up to play with someone else, and they are using the macro too, one of us has to come back later and play the game to get out of the negative and get to 5000 points in order to get the 3's.  Am I doing something wrong or is this the way it's supposed to work?  ???
Title: Re: Canasta Helper
Post by: Homer on August 03, 2004, 03:53:08 PM
When using the helper play in a private room against the bot. That should do it. I don't believe the helper was meant to play another person head to head. ;)
Title: Re: Canasta Helper
Post by: Dream Faerie on August 03, 2004, 04:28:47 PM
I Just cannot get it to work because it is Macro  :'(
For some reason NO Macro Cheats work on my computer.. I am running Windows XP, IE 6 AND AOL 9. 512 MB RAM

The Helper is good, the only problem I have is after the 5000 is reached you have to be there to click new game.  Is there anything I should do to prevent this where it can run on its own??

That sure is the truth,  so aggrivating too.  I loose my settings too sometimes cause it kicks me off aol which I am sorry to say Im sick of but am to use to it to change. I haven't tried the canasta never played the game actually but it sounds like a good program as usual!!  Getty!!

Post by: justasking316 on August 04, 2004, 06:15:34 AM
For those still with problems with macros. These are all the settings. Screen 1024x768, 640x480 may work also, 32 bit color, Windows XP DEFAULT color settings, Microsoft VM (java), smooth screen fonts OFF, make sure you have all Windows XP updates and using Internet Explorer to access Pogo. Also Pogo has a screen size setting if you click on the account button make sure that's set at Large (800 x 600). If I missed something let me know. I think I covered ALL settings. If the macros still don't work then I don't know what it could be. I try to keep updating my settings needed so I will keep tring to see if there are other settings in windows that might effect the macros.

They may have taken it down.  They have a full auto out now that melds and plays the game.  I believe it's in the premium section.  And it is an auto you will have to purchase after shareware runs out.

First off this thread was started July 29, 2004.  The auto is now called 3-Bagger and it only draws & discards in hopes of drawing a red 3.  If you want an auto to play with better logic then the bots, then CanastaMasta is the one you want.  Both are available at BadgeHelp.

Santa, like I said in the last post, this thread is old.  The person who you want to pm you a link posted "Reply #78 on: August 29, 2004, 06:14:05 PM"  Canasta Helper, the way I read this whole post, became 3-Bagger.  BadgeHelp has a Agent that actually plays the game called CanastaMasta.
