Go up one level in this thread


This is from the readme

for point 1) this trick is also needed for analysis to bypass-book (rename
dbchs.dat to e.g
dbchs.dat000 while doing analysis)

The tips below are only workaround for bugs in the
Chessbase GUI. The tricks are not needed under ChessPartner.

1) when playing from test-positions NUNN-1/NUNN-2,,, and book should be disabled
the GUI option "OwnBook" unfortunately does not work (Chessbase GUI error)

Solution : rename gandalfs own book, dbchs.dat to e.g. dbchs.dat000 and gandalf
will play without book.

2) when playing normal games and you only want to use gandalfs book, dbchs.dat,
   use "File -> New -> OpeningsBook" to create an "empty.ctg" book, and attach
this "empty book" when playing normal games to enable only gandalfs own book.
This is a known "trick/workaround" since gandalf 4.
