As I said to Tanya 2 days before:
http://www.talkchess.com/forums/1/message.html?244867

Moving at only a deep of 3 plies results from the OPK number - a sort of copy
protection of the King engine in other GUI (like Fritz 7, Shredder...).

If you let me know the paths of your folders

- Chessmaster 8000, e.g. C:\Program files\Chessmaster 8000

- ChessBase\Engines

- Fritz 7

then I will send you some prepared files for starting the CM8000 engine "The
King 3.12d" - as UCI engine with the Wb2Uci adapter of Odd Gunnar Malin - in
Fritz 7 very simply including the possibility to switch between some strong CM
settings (like CM_default, CM_Fun, CM8777_Kleinert, CM_Schuele ...) in an easy
way.

Important is: Your Chessmaster 8000 must be installed and in your CM8K folder
there must be the file "TheKing.exe" (127.488 Byte); this is the engine "The
King 3.12d" resulting from the latest patch/upgrade 1.0.4 to Chessmaster 8000 -
