how many chess engines are they?

[meschle]

your right i used to run in arena

but I get this

The aplication failed to initialize properly (0x000135). Click on OK to terminate the application


maybe I need Directx or Dot.net or Flash or Some other plug in because its a new install might be it.

have you tried ACE from a recent download? all my other engines work, I also tried in chessGUI

I have ACE thats working on my system - check your email

Version of Ace now on website works.

- On your C partition, create the folder "Ace01".
- In "C:\Ace01" folder, put only "Ace.exe".
- Append the following lines to "ChsGUI_Eng.TXT" in GUI_DATA folder of
ChessGUI:

[ACE 0.1]
MyName=ACE 0.1
OriginalName=ACE 0.1
EngineFile=C:\ace01\ACE.exe
EngineAuthor=Adam Adair
CommandLine=
EngineCode=571746046443552 117966600 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
EngineInts=0 1 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
LogoFile=
EloValue=1800

- Start ChessGUI and report here whether Ace works.

Hi Dann

How are you 5000 engines few. ive fiddled a biit with mainsworthy, but didnt want to give up a working engine so sonOfMainsworthy02 is done

Im trying to get hold of ACE, but all my downloads are bad the engine just fires up and dies due to a windows error .

do you have a good version of ACE markjamestop@yahoo.co.uk

I used to use ACE a lot and miss it

Maybe your problem is that you are running an UCI engine as WB.
Winboard cannot use UCI engines without polyglot.
Arena will run Ace as UCI.

Matthias.

Just in case he needs it, I sent him these three versions of ACE:

Code: Select all

 Directory of C:\chess\winboard\ace
02/12/2007  02:34 PM            65,536 ACE.exe
10/24/2008  02:19 AM            48,128 ace64.exe
01/27/2008  07:22 AM            65,536 ACE_01.exe

[mainsworthy2]

The ACE dilema Dann figured it out , just before me so in chess hes the best. ACE requires '.NET' I had a new install so .NET wasnt on my PC , still a good bit of detective work was needed

thanks for all your help
