ChessGate — Grandmaster personalities built from real game analysis, not engine tweaking (free)

[AdminX]

Chesssgate: May i ask if R. Fine may be supported down the road. Additionally, It would have been quite a treat to see Lasker and Rubinstein face off in a few games.

Thanky you , i will add Rueben Fine to the roster!

I will look for some Lasker rubinstein games as well to share .

Also big thanks to AdminX for sharing the Karpov games, and the analysis prompt ! I tried to run it on my local system but it took a long time to complete, so i am wondering if i could simplify it a little bit to get quicker analyis because this is one of the best AI generated analyses i have ever read !!

By all means, go ahead and give it a try. Allot depends on the GPU of course and then the size of the model. Over here I have only tried locally, "venkataparswanadh/muse-glimmer:iq2_m" a smaller version of muse glimmer. It gave me speed but not the quality I was looking for. I plan to try Phi4 20b and see if I get better results. Right now Online Gemini 3.5 Flash has set the standard I was looking for. I prefer MOE models in general.

Is there any way of playing with a personality in a different GUI as a UCI engine?

We made a separate Chessgate Karpov UCI :


It uses the Karpov personality layer and opening book , the engine underneath is the lineachess engine from https://playchessgate.com/lineachess/

Hi. Would it be possible to request for the other personalities standalone UCI engines? Thank you.

Good question, and the answer is a straight yes: on Windows the personalities already
exist as standalone UCI engines. Each one is an individual engine, rebuilt from the
master's own games, and you can run it in the UCI GUI of your choice. The whole roster
of 49 is available, one engine per master:

Since there are by now quite a few ways to play them, here is the full map:

- In the browser, free and without signup: https://playchessgate.com. Lighter versions
of all 49, good for a quick game against any of them.
- On Android: ChessGate: Chess Masters on Google Play. The app is free, Morphy,
Steinitz and McDonnell are included, and the other masters are one-time purchases
that install as data packs inside the app. Every game you play is graded on the
device afterwards.

- On Windows as UCI engines, as above: buy only the masters you want, use them in your
own GUI.
- CZUBATRONIC 2400, the console: a Windows program in the style of the classic
dedicated machines, and the natural home for the personality engines if you would
rather not set up a GUI yourself. The console is free with a ChessGate member
account, and membership is free too, you just register on the site.

- On a real board: the Board Edition, the paid edition of the console, connects to
e-boards over a plug-and-play module (Millennium ChessLink, DGT, Chessnut, Certabo,
TabuTronic). You move the pieces on the board, the personality answers.
