Getting Started with TableNinjaFT

In depth information on features from specific tabs is provided in the links to that tab's documentation below. If you cannot find the information you're looking for here you can check our FAQ or vist the TableNinjaFT Forums .

Getting Started with TableNinjaFT version 1.1.19.0

  1. Installation: To install TableNinjaFT just download and unzip the file, double click setup.exe and follow the on-screen instructions
  2. Required Full Tilt Settings: Please make sure that you have Full Tilt configured with our Required Full Tilt Settings, and that you have Windows configured with our Required Windows Settings
  3. Setup: The first time you run TableNinjaFT you will be guided through the configuration process by the TableNinjFT Setup pop-up.
    • Language: Please select your language. The links in TableNinjaFT will take you to our online documentation translated by Google® into the language you select here.
    • Table Layout: Select your table layout style. If you tile your tables select "Tiled". If none of your tables overlap, select "NoOverlap". If you stack, select "Stack". If you cascade, select "Cascade". For all other layouts with any amount of table overlap, select "Overlap". If you stack, cascade or overlap your tables please read our Stacking Cascading and Overlapping Instructions
    • Automatic Configuration: TableNinjaFT will attempt to detect your settings and automatically finish the configuration process. If this process is successful you will see an "Automatic configuration was successful. Setup is complete!" message. This message means that TableNinjaFT is now properly configured and you are ready to start using TableNinjaFT's features.
    • Manual Configuration: In rare cases the automatic configuration process may fail. In this case you will receive a warning message and when you click the "Start TableNinjaFT" button you will be automatically taken to the "Setup" tab where you will need to manually complete the configuration process. Please see our Manual Configuration Guide for instructions.
  4. Table Control: Next you will need to pick a Table Control Mode. We recommend that people who are stacking or cascading use "Table In Foreground" (TiF) and that users who are tiling their tables use "Table Under Mouse" (TuM) but this is largely a matter of personal preference.

TableNinjaFT is designed to run on Windows XP® Windows Vista ® or Windows 7® with the default Windows themes and Window appearances. TableNinjaFT supports the standard XP theme, the Windows Classic Theme the Windows Vista theme and all Aero themes in Windows Vista and Windows 7. If you are using a custom Windows theme, have customized the appearance of your windows, or if you have adjusted your DPI settings in Windows, TableNinjaFT may not work properly and we strongly recommend that you test all features at play money or microstakes before using it in your regular games.

System Requirements

TableNinjaFT relies on precisely timing actions. If there is lag on your machine while you are playing with TableNinjaFT it may cause significant problems so please read our system requirements carefully. If Full Tilt Poker is lagging it may become unresponsive to TableNinjaFT's input which may causes issues TableNinjaFT's bet sizing and table targetting. Even if your system meets the minimum system requirements we strongly recommend that you test TableNinjaFT carefully at play money at your normal number of tables before using it in your regular games to ensure that it works smoothly on your system.

Machines meeting the Recommended System Requirements should be able to play 16 tables smoothly. In general, Machines not meeting the Minimum System Requirements may experience significant lag when multitabling. The more tables you play the faster your system needs to be. Note that these requirements assume that you are not running any processor intensive applications besides TableNinjaFT and Full Tilt Poker.

Manual Configuration of TableNinjaFT

Settings that TableNinjaFT failed to detect automatically will be highlighted in red on the Setup tab and will need to be set manually.

Instructions for how to manually configure each of the items on the Setup tab are below.

  • Table Layout: Select your table layout style. If you tile, select "Tiled". If none of your tables overlap, select "NoOverlap". If you stack, select "Stack". If you cascade, select "Cascade". For all other layouts with any amount of table overlap, select "Overlap". If you stack, cascade or overlap your tables please read our Stacking Cascading and Overlapping Instructions
  • Full Tilt Poker™ Table View: Select the Full Tilt Poker™ Table View that you use. Choices are classic or racetrack. You can see which Table View you are using by clicking "Options" → "Table View" in the main Full Tilt Lobby.

Creating Hotkeys

TableNinjaFT has an extremely simple interface for creating hotkeys. To assign a hotkey to an action, simply click the text-field next to that action and hit the key or mouse button or combination of buttons to which you would like the hotkey assigned. Note that you cannot assign a hotkey to the left-click button on the mouse. Also note when creating mouse hotkeys your cursor must be over the text field.

Table Control Options

To view the Table Control options open the Table Control tab on the main TableNinjaFT window. TableNinjaFT always sends all hotkey actions to the target table. TableNinjaFT uses customizable color coded frames to show which tables need attention and which table is the target table. By default the target table is framed in red. You can change the colors by clicking the colored boxes. TableNinjaFT provides three ways to control which table is the target table, you can use whichever method feels the most natural to you.

    Table Under Mouse

    By default the "Table Under Mouse" method is used. With this option hotkeys get sent to whichever table your cursor is over. Note that your cursor must be directly on top of the table and not over your heads up display. This option is very simple and extremely easy to use - just move your cursor over a table to make that table the target table and any hotkeys you click will be sent to that table.

    Table In Foreground

    TableNinjaFT also has a "Table in Foreground" control mode. With this method the foremost table in the windows Z-order is always the target table. Full Tilt automatically brings tables requiring action to the front so with this method TableNinjaFT will automatically target tables that need attention and add them to a queue of tables waiting for action. When an action is needed at a table, that table automatically becomes the new target table if the current target table does not need an action. Once you take an action the next table that needs attention automatically becomes the target table. In addition, clicking a table brings it to the front and makes it the target table so we can also manually chose a target table at any time with this method.

    Manually Cycled/Clicked

    This mode allows you to manually control which table is targeted either by clicking on a table or using the "Cycling Hotkeys".

Stacking Cascading and Overlapping Instructions

If you stack, cascade or overlap, we STRONGLY recommend that you use Windows Vista® or Windows 7® with an Aero theme (usually the default theme). The "Glassy" Aero effects allow TableNinjaFT to read background tables.

If you decide to stack, cascade or overlap in Windows XP or in Windows Vista/7 with the "Windows Classic" or "Basic" theme unfortunately the default bets may occasionally fail to be set properly. Tiling your tables or playing with "NoOverlap" should work fine on any operating system.
