SlowChess Blitz Classic 2.0

[AdminX]

Ted,

I am not sure how this can help me install SlowChess on my machine. I have tried and transfer SlowChess exe files in the place you just mentioned, still the problem is the same.

I am not sure by installing Fritz GUI all over will help fix the problem.. I have many engines in my Fritz GUI that work fine, all except SlowChess..

I think it is the engine problem and has nothing to do with GUI...

The only thing that is required is that the Slowchess.uci file is in that directory not the engine, then when you open fritz you should see it listed in the GUI for use. In the example above I show you my slowchess.uci file. In your case create your own using a text editor it should work, extension must be *.uci not *.txt.

The engine can not be created as uci engine under Fritz GUI.
There is no Slowchess UCI here C:\Users\Bruger\AppData\Roaming\ChessBase\Engines.UCI

I know that, that is why you have to create it yourself.

The engine is not even a normal UCI engine like others... When I try and open the engine with a double click, it opens in its own GUI

I give up. Author of SlowChess should create his GUI separately from the engine and not inside the engine itself..

For Fritz just install in manually and place it in:

C:\Users\your_name\AppData\Roaming\ChessBase\Engines.uci

Code: Select all

[ENGINE]
Name=SlowChessBlitz
Author=Jonathan Kreuzer
Filename=H:\ChessEngines\SlowChess\SlowChessBlitz.exe

[OPTIONS]

Yes that does indeed work. Filename is => SlowChess Blitz 2.9.uci

I just watched the video. It showed already installed engine, but showed nothing how to install the engine. Any explanation in how to install the engine would be appreciated..

There should be no problem. No doubt you have unzipped the file, and you see the engine. If you click the engine directly, it will open it's own interface. However, if you are in a Fritz interface, say Chessbase, simply "Create UCI Engine" and select that same file. No need to do anything else. The engine will be installed and you're good to go.

Sorry but it is not working. Not going to waste anymore of my time on this worthless engine..
