Arena GUI bug

Post by Ponti »

Finally after using Arena 3.5.1 (build 2861) for many games I got 1 game with the "Arena adjudication.Illegal move!" error.
I´m using a DGT board and a modified (tuned to be weak) version of Crafty.
The position and the move are ok but the game suddenly stops with this error.

[pgn] [Event "Blitz"] [Site "Ryzen 1800X"] [Date "2018.12.30"] [White "Crafty \"Victoria\""] [Black "Ponti"] [Result "0-1"] [ECO "A00"] [Opening "Dunst (Sleipner-Heinrichsen-Van Geet) Opening"] [Time "16:35:57"] [Variation "1...d5 2.Nf3"] [TimeControl "600+15"] [Termination "rules infraction"] [PlyCount "26"] [WhiteType "program"] [BlackType "human"] 1. Nc3 d5 2. Nf3 d4 3. Nb5 Nc6 4. e3 e5 5. exd4 exd4 6. Bc4 Be7 7. O-O Nf6 8. c3 d3 9. Nbd4 Nxd4 10. Nxd4 O-O 11. Bxd3 c5 12. Nf5 Qxd3 13. Nxe7+ Kh8 {Arena Adjudication. Illegal move!} 0-1 [/pgn]


Question: will it be fixed ?

I don't think that anyone will fix anything without the log file.

Which move is ok? Since the result is 0-1 there must have been another white move after 13.Nxe7+ Kh8 that was rejected by the GUI as "illegal move" and that did not appear in the PGN file for that reason. The answer can only be in the log file.
