FRC and winboard

Post by Werner Taelemans »

I have implemented chess960 in my engine. It seems to work in Winboard 4.8.0b as UCI engine, but when I try with CECP, I get the message: "Engine did not send setup for non-standard variant".

The engine sends the setup command. What could be wrong here?

Code: Select all
