Hi. Where can I find the bitbases? It seems the links to them don't work.

Thank you so much. It seems that part 2 of the file (at jim's page) is broken. Also these are the old ones. Does someone have the newer ones instead? Aren't the newer ones 225mb (and the old ones are over 300 mb)?

If I remember in a correct way they were some problems with the new ones. It's a link also in the WBEC Ridderkerk web page (Engine details/Scorpio) together with the . dll download , but seems to be Dan Corbit's site also.

I'm uploading them right now. I'll put the link here and in the website when I've finished.

Thanks so much. I just purchased your engine. Can't wait to use it.

No it's not possible at present. If you don't want large pages to be used just don't start the GUI with administrative rights.
Anyway, I could add an option to disable them.

Hi Ubaldo Andrea Farina

Can I pay through Western Union -or - any other payment option from India?

My PayPal account is having some issues since I do not have a credit card.
I do not want to miss the deadline. :cry:

I am not attracted to the fact that your engine is number one or two or three...
I am interested in supporting a nice author/programmer, the engine is just a sweet bonus!

(The same goes for Lucas chess GUI and Chess Wizard GUI too :D )
