Erstelle einfach einen neuen Ordner im Engines.UCI Verzeichnis mit dem Namen "Crafty". Kopiere all Dateien die du bekommen hast in diesen Ordner. Dann modifizierst du die Wb2Uci.eng Datei mit einem Editor. Unter [Options]: Program=C:\Chessbase\Engines.UCI\Crafty\wcrafty.exe oder Program=C:\Programme\Chessbase\Engines.UCI\Crafty\wcrafty.exe oder... Je nachdem wo diese Dateien sind und wie die Crafty exe-Datei heißt. Schließlich startest du Fritz. Engine -> UCI Engine erstellen -> Durchsuchen suchst nach dem Crafty Ordner und wählst die Datei Wb2Uci.exe (nicht wcrafty.exe) aus. OK drücken und es sollte funktionieren.
