Hello, any news for an update of DGT app? White pawn's s allows still much faster play than DGT app. The new DGT app is a bit overdue, but the reason for this is that DGT is moving to a bigger building and increasing staff. The design is still being worked on and Chess24 may not be included until t...

First of all, it must be mentioned that DGT chess pieces do not use RFID technology, but magnetic coils, in which each chess piece sends a unique frequency to the DGT board. With RFID, a bidirectional data exchange takes place, which is not necessary when using frequency (magnetic) coils. 5 year old...

I'm a fan of the DGT boards - I have the Centaur and a bluetooth board that I use with Acid Ape. I hope Acid Ape will support the Pegasus soon, at which point I'll almost certainly get one. I love the Centaur as a simple straightforward computer, but it has two main drawbacks: size and the lack of ...

The new DGT app is about to be released and new features for future updates are already being worked on. Flutter is just awesome for developing apps.

First of all, one has to define the term "refuting an opening". Beginners tend to think that refuting an opening (more like an opening variation) means that one side is losing. But it is the case that one speaks of a refutation of the opening line if there is a more promising (better) line...

Well, then we are all excited to read from you what some things are explained with it. Here we go! We are waiting.

Next update in some weeks. Any chance it will include an engine for offline play thanks. You can use Chess Dojo for this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kalab.chessdojo&gl=DE DGT is now developing a new app in-house. A third-party company was commissioned for the current app ...

Will there actually be another update of the DGT app or do people think that it is working (now)? After all, version 1.0 has been in the Playstore since 10 January and even when participating in the beta programme, nothing new is offered. Why don't you ask DGT? +31 (0)53 430 5195 I'm sure that DGT ...

Any news from the developers?, it's been 14 days after all? Why don't DGT and Chessbase cooperate? Surely that would be worthwhile for both? And Graham has already done some great preliminary work. Just one more small step for DGT and/or Chessbase with great benefits for the chess community / custo...

Without continuing the ban discussion, I want to clarify that I am 100% convinced that WS26 has not cheated in any of his games. I think it's important to emphasize this.

The rest of the post removed as it contained a link that did not work. No more on this topic please.

And I didn't get my lich account back which I lost due to my naivety. There was now a reply from Lichess about the ban on your account. Lichess says, that your account was not banned because you were connected to two devices at the same time. If you want to know exactly why you were banned, you sho...

I just have to correct you there as I haven't done BluetoothLE in Linux yet, so for the Pegasus it's currently only Windows. But Lucas has already released 1.30c that includes the Pegasus driver. Good to know. Thanks Yes, I know! I've tried a 64 bit version of my driver in Fritz and it gets as far ...

I've sent my new Pegasus driver to Lucas so once he is ready he will release it in his next version of LucasChess. For Arena and Shredder you can download it from here: https://goneill.co.nz/chess.php It needs Windows 10 and the C++ library mentioned on my web page, and is version 1.0 so there migh...

of course not with your banned account.

One more thing: is there any chance to prove that such use of DGT Pegasus is "legal" under Lichess' rules and will not lead to a fraud charge? I mean the situation in the future. (unfortunately Lichess moderators no longer answer my questions.) 1. I start the DGT Chess app and connect it ...
