Additional Information About CFSPoker

Creating your own card back bitmaps

CFSPoker uses a fixed size for its card images depending on video resolution. The values are shown in the table below for the most common video resolutions.

Resolution Pixel WidthPixel Height
1280 x 1024 144 216
1024 x 768 112 176
800 x 600 80 120
640 x 480 64 96

Bitmaps whose size matches the card image size for your video resolution will be displayed significantly faster than generic bitmaps. Therefore, card back bitmaps you create should match one of the sizes shown.

If the first four characters of a bitmap name found in the CFSPoker directory are numeric. CFSPoker will only use that bitmap if the first four characters match the horizontal video resolution selected by CFSPoker. Therefore, the same graphic image can be used to create size-specific bitmaps for different video resolutions. CFSPoker is distributed with two size-specific bitmaps for each of the common resolutions: 

   nnnnBK00.BMP
   nnnnBK01.BMP
CFSPoker uses a built-in card back image if no eligible bitmaps are found in the CFSPoker directory.
Note:  
If other than one of the common video resolutions is found, CFSPoker will use the first resolution in the table that is immediately lower than the actual resolution. You can see the video resolution CFSPoker is using by selecting the Help & Info popup and then selecting About CFSPoker.
