The other day I posted the following: >Hello, >I just found out about a Chess Assistant Club. It is a server for online play. >Anyway they have a free download of the interface for online play. The interface >comes with the chess engines Dragon & Delfi for game evals. My question is does >anyone know how to add other chess engines (Fruit 2.1)into it? > http://www.chessassistantclub.com > http://chessassistantclub.com/program_eng.html Well today I discovered that there are two ini files in the C:\Program Files\ChessPlanet Directory. They are called Engines7.ini and EngOpt.ini. Well it turns out that you can configure other Chess Engines (Winboard & UCI) to work in this Chess Assistant Club Interface. You can also setup the default directory for Tablebases. There are still engines that I have not gotten to work, so any help others could give would be enjoyed. So far I have gotten Ruffian, Fruit, and Crafty working. To get other quickly started just take a look at the EngOpt.ini and MOD the "Last" few lines. Exsample: [Programslist] Count=5 ChessProgram1=Ruffian|C:\ProgramFiles\Arena\Engines\Ruffian\Ruffian_105.exe|8|30000||8|0 ChessProgram2=Fruit|C:\Documents and Settings\AdmX\Desktop\fruit_21\Fruit_21.exe|6|30000||8|0 ChessProgram3=Crafty|C:\Crafty SSE\crafty1919sse2.exe|8|30000||8|0 ChessProgram4=Delfi||10|30000||2|0 ChessProgram5=Dragon||9|30000||8|0 Note: Make sure your Count variable = number of engines you have. So if you had 10 engines setup then the Count= should also be 10.
