Matthias.
I guess that you already tried and failed, did you already tried using Fritz960 under ChessGUI too :?:

ChessBase will NEVER publish their protocol.

My engine was quite strong till I added knowledge to it.

I just tried to start a Chess960 engine match using two FRC capable UCI engines, but normal classical chess was played.
...
But I am aware that it's probably either impossible or too complicated.

That indeed summarizes it :evil:

Matthias.
No, that does NOT summarizes it, but it would be possible via a network connection, since Fritz960 uses the same FRC-FEN as Shredder or shredder Classic GUI. :wink:
That does indeed summarise it - *TOO COMPLICATED* even if it does work at the end of the day, and I suspect it would not.
