Pocket PC Thinkerboard update

Post by CThinker »

You know how the latest Thinker engine was released even though I am not exactly too happy with it (but that it has just been a long time since the last update)?

Well, a deja-vu, for Mobile Thinkerboard.

I did not have the time to put in all the changes that I wanted. The major ones that made it are:

1. Built-in (FICS) TimeSeal. Happy birthday, to all PDA+(slow)GPRS users.
2. Thinker 5.1, in Windows CE form.
3. Small bug fixes, and cosmetics, here and there.

I only have a PPC 2003 device, and tested only on that.

I have just put out a bid on ebay for a used Axim with PPC 2002. If all goes well, I should have something for you next week.

Hi Lance

How about Thinker compatible as UCI engine.
The only place I can make it work is in Lokasoft ChessPartner GUI.
I can not make it work, neither in Fritz GUI, or Playchess server.

Btw, the PPC 2002 device is scheduled to arrive on the 14th.

I have built the PPC 2002 version of the program. I just have not tested it on a real device.
