DON'T use swap.bat and DON'T use older books with Chess Tiger 15!!!
The new book format is incompatible with the older ones, so Chess Tiger 15 will
play without book if you use a book with the old format!!!
Use the book provided with Chess Tiger 15. Check in Extra>Options>Books that
"Use engine books" is checked and that "Use GUI books" is UNCHECKED!
