Just an email from a ChessGUI user ...

Code: Select all

Hello Matthias,
Fabien Letouzey which is a good connoisseur of computer language (Fruit and Senpai) can probably help you with your ChessGui ...

BTW, to uninstall all ChessGUI engines, delete ChsGUI_Eng.TXT and ChsGUI_Cfg.ini before launching ChessGUI.

Please, test and report.

Matthias.
For now, only this one file has been updated. http://www.chess.hylogic.de/chess/ChessGUI.zip

- exclude misbehaving engines from testsuite tournament by unchecking them.
(no automatic exclusion yet)

- book creation revisited.

Matthias.

Hello Matthias,

Writing and offering a gui that does what yours does, for free, is an incredible gift.

I just had to let you know that I am really having fun test driving it, particularly the test suite features.

The epd test suite handling is working and the engine import went smoothly!

I have some tidying up to do - when I have some time - of my engine names etc. but ChessGUI is a definite hit!

Thanks for the labour of love for the fans

Later.

ChessGUI still messes up the OUTPUT folder with unwanted log files, though.

BTW, Epd2Pgn in ChessGUI was meant to output a truncated PGN game (starting at standard start position and ending at FEN) for every FEN in the EPD file.
This type of Epd2Pgn can work well only when using a huge PGN databse, too huge for ChessGUI.

- messy OUTPUT folder only if logging activated.

Thanks Matthias. Really do appreciate this.
I was successful in creating the rather large ICCF0915.cgb book yesterday. :)

It does here.

In task manager, on the details tab look at the wait chain and see what is preventing it from starting.
