There! And just because this great GUI wasn't in the GUIs poll! ;)

Thanks Matthias! :D

ChessGUI 0.245g is available

... a "Score Factor" (in per cent) can now be defined for each engine.

I have set "Score Factor" = 53 for Stockfish in my tournaments.

1 / 1.9 = 0.53

Maybe you meant 8-) or :D or :wink: ?

Adjudications by score or test for unfair openings will not be messed up anymore by a few engines under ChessGUI.

Note: The test for unfair openings under ChessGUI is still unfair in cases where a "fair" opening is flagged as unfair when engines switch sides.
This "bug" shall be fixed.

If you want the score spit out by SF to lie in same range as of other top engines, you must divide it by some value close to 2.0 !
Where Houdi says 1.00, SF says 1.90 (approx).
"Score Factor" fixes this SF-type "problem".
