It fails to run when installed as a Winboard engine.

Thanks in advanced.

Bringer 1.9 needs the command line parameter

Code: Select all

/winboard
to run as Winboard engine in Arena.
I assume this might be needed for the Shredder GUI as well.
I am not familiar with the Shredder GUI.

Thank You for your assistance. I was able to get it running using the InBetween adapter and passing the /winboard parameter to it.

Note that you should use WB2UCI, because the native 'support' of WB
is not better in Shredder as it was in CB.
You cannot rely on what you get via those crappy WB adaptions/adapters in both.
