Yep.....Based on My tests The Pirarucu (Java) Chess engine series runs only in The Cutechess.. Banksia & Arena Gui's...
To get the engine to run you have to use the enclosed Bat files (1 core 2 core 4 core ect) in the engine bin folder...engine will not run by pointing directly to the pirarucu.jar file directly...Pirarucu also would not run using a wb2uci.exe or a polyglot.exe file to assist in running the bat file....... :) :wink:

I have it running in Hiarcs Chess Explorer Pro. It should also work in Banksia, I have not tested it there yet.

The *.bat files are in the bin folder for it already.
