As far as "Full WinBoard compatibility" - does this mean that it can load WinBoard driven engines into its own interface or that it can play online at chess servers (such as ICC/FICS/CHESS.NET) with the assistance of WinBoard? -elc. ======================================== -- New King Engine -- v3.12 -- Full Winboard Compatibility -- You can now play any two Winboard engines against each other, and neither of them have to be a King engine. You can also see Chessmaster's analysis of the current position at the same time, meaning "infinite analysis" is finally supported. -- Windows NT and Windows 2000 compatibility. -- Hash table size is now a unique setting for each personality. You can have anywhere from no hash table, to 2GB (depending on your machine's available PHYSICAL memory). -- Josh Waitzkin intermediate/advanced endgame tutorial -- Bruce Pandolfini's "Match the Masters" (much like the old "Rate My Play" Chessmaster feature) -- Swiss tournaments -- Blindfold chess -- 100 new Classic Games annotated by GM Larry Evans -- Several new exercises where you have to achieve mate with only a certaincombination of pieces (KQvK, KRvK, KBNvK, KBBvK, KQvKN, KRvKN, KQvKR) -- Updated database -- More customizable interface -- More accurate personality ratings
