However, when I renamed Eman 4.60 64-bit BMI2.exe to Eman 4.60-64-bit-BMI2.exe, it installs.

Thanks for that Tip!

it would be nice to see an option: '' Create Engine''.

I am having fun with this.



PS: I did notice that these custom pieces don't scale well in the PV dock.

This appears to be a problem with the piece set and not a program issue since it only effects the white pieces and not the black ones.

Feature Request: Auto Annotate Played Game with Engine of your choice.

Improvement suggestion:

Default move animation is too slow in fast games, in easy endgames, or when mate will be found.
In this cases the board is not in sync with the real position.

May be an option for a faster move animation could be introduced?

BSG has functions to add engines but not create. Can you tell me more? Thanks

Thanks all for the report, I will improve that function for the next release.

For the current version, to use paths with spaces, just put them into a pair of quotes, e.g. "c:\Eman 4.60 64 bit BMI2\Eman 4.60 64 bit BMI2.exe"

However, BSG has a problem if working folder has space. Quotes don't help. Perhaps it is a bug in the 3rd-party library. To workaround, just select a folder without space.

Thanks for verifying. I took a note and will look into this issue anyway.

Thanks again for the suggestion. I have added it to my TODO list

Thanks for the suggestion. I have been battling to lagging issues. Will focus on them more!
