Can you ask someone knows how to properly configure ChessGui and write what I need to play matches and tournaments of chess programs. For any advice - thank you in advance.

Re: ChessGUI - playing live.
Hi. I hope this help. This is Jim Ablett's tournament I think. Or he is attending it. This is all I know about the subject. I have never seen "live" chess engine tourn broadcasts, but it does not seem impossible. The program has a "server" and seems to communicate with it with Winboard http://www.open-aurec.com/wbforum/viewt ... 19&t=51528.
So you can get this program and run it and chat with the boys there. Best Regards.

ChessGUI can't do it on its own, but it can in conjunction with other software.
Remember TCEC was once driven by ChessGUI .
Graham also uses ChessGUI in conjunction with Tom's Live Chess Viewer.

Re: ChessGUI - playing live.
Please write as you know how to properly configure ChessGUI. I downloaded the program Tom's Live Chess Viewer. When you first start the program Tom's Live Chess Viewer, When you first start the program Tom's Live Chess Viewer, there is a chessboard with figures. I wonder whether this be so.Modern Times wrote:ChessGUI can't do it on its own, but it can in conjunction with other software.

The pieces and position won't show on the board until there is a broadcast running.Krzysztof Grzelak wrote:Program has been downloaded and installed.

I'm probably not the person to ask, as I required help from some of the ChessGUI regulars plus my IT specialist son to get broadcasts set up and running.Krzysztof Grzelak wrote:Thank you for the information Graham.

Dan Cooper managed to figure it out on his own, so he'd be a better person to ask.
