I have been trying to generate evaluation charts ("Bewertungsprofil" - the bar
chart that shows how the evaluation of the position changes with every move) of
chess games using the Chessbase GUI (Fritz7). These evaluation charts are very
useful, but I a running into some strange quirks of the Chessbase GUI when I try
to get it to generate these charts by itself.
The only way I know to generate this chart is to go into permanent-analysis
mode, and then manually go through all the moves of a game using the arrow keys.
After a 4 to 5 seconds wait, the evaluation chart is updated. Of course, this is
a very time consuming method.
I tried two ways to automate this:
- running blunder check ("Fehlersuche") on the game: for some strange reason,
the chart is not updated
- let Chessbase GUI replay the game (demo-mode): for some even stranger reason,
the node-count of the Engine drops dramatically (ca. 90%) - try it yourself! The
moment I let the GUI go through all the moves, the node count falls to approx.
10k, and the evaluation the engine comes up with is therefore unreliable. This
is independent of the engine I use under the GUI.
Does anybody have an idea how to get Chessbase GUI to create these charts by
itself? Can Arena or winboard generate similar charts?
Greetings,
Mark
