NoPayPOKER Configuration File, “conf.txt”, Explained

Some background to the “conf.txt” file.

Every skin needs a “conf.txt” file! NoPayPOKER skins are located in individual directories under “C:\Program Files\NoPayPOKER\poker\resources\skins”. In that directory you will already have at least two sub directories called “classic” and “twister06”.

Enter the “classic” directory and you will note it has a further directory called “images” and a file called “conf.txt”. Every skin must have a “conf.txt” file in order to operate properly. This file is used to define various different parameters, like colors, for the skin where it resides.

When you create a new skin you will have a similar directory structure to “classic” (obviously with a different skin name like “myskin” for example) and you must have a “conf.txt” file. The rest of this document describes each parameter within the “conf.txt” file.

What is in the “conf.txt” file?

The “conf.txt” file contains information about colors which the nopaypoker software needs to know in order to display a skin correctly.

All colors in the skin conf use 6 digit HTML Hexadecimal color codes loaded from a file in the skin directory called conf.txt.  If you are not familiar with HTML color codes then visit http://www.colorschemer.com/online.html, which allows you to pick colors and gives you the color codes in return. For example a code might say #000000 (for black), or #ffffff (for white).  Enter the color below for the part of the software you want to use that color but make sure to remove the “#” character at the start first.

Buttons use a gradient system whereby one color at the top of the button (the starting color) gradually changes to another color at the bottom (the ending color).  Therefore, buttons define 2 background colors rather than just 1.  To have a single color button just define both colors with the same value.  To create a nice effect it makes sense to use varying colors.

Keep in mind:

  1. You do not need to configure every item - at a minimum make sure to define “pf” and “pb” (foreground and background colors), you can leave some or all of the rest blank. But your skin will benefit from more colors!
  2. Select your skin and restart software to see changes - within the NoPayPOKER software, click the preferences button on the bottom right of the game lobby and select your skin from the dropdown. Now shut down and relaunch the software.
  3. Don’t add a “#” in front of your 6 digit color code. - It doesn’t need it and it may cause problems to include it!
  4. Have Fun! - Experiment and have fun, this is a game afterall!
