HIARCS Chess Forums

I'm trying to import the following PGN via the clipboard: [Date "????.??.??"] [Result "*"] [FEN "1kr2b2/ppr1nq1p/5p2/3RpP2/R2pP3/3N2B1/2P4P/3Q3K w - - 0 1"] 1.Rxe5 fxe5 2.Nxe5 Qe8 3.Qxd4 b6 4.Nd7+ Kb7 5.Rxa7+ Kxa7 6.Qxb6+ Ka8 7.Qa6+ Ra7 8.Nb6# * When I want to load (pa...

Let's try a closer look to the ratings: Due to the authors we have: 1. Hiarcs 12.3 - 2825 2. Shredder 1.4 iPhone (1.2 iPad) - 2600 3. Stockfish 2.3 - 2500 (+30) 4. Stockfish 2.2 - 2500 This is misleading. Stockfish isn't "2500 due to the author". The author's position is that nobody has e...

Not yet, been too busy with work.Just tested it on some positions that StockFish 1.8 struggled with and saw a small improvement with time to solve. When we consider,that glaurung had given by the developer a elo from 2400 and stockfish have 2500 is this according to "Adam Riese" a differe...

Enrico: Thanks for your kind words. I hope all is well with you, too. egrit: Apology accepted. Don't worry, I'm not easily offended. :) Apple has now finally approved the iPad version of Stockfish: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/stockfish-chess/id305558605?mt=8 Mark will probably need some time to a...

.0s 4. I think that is correct. Does that mean we get glaurung chess back for the iPad? You'll get Glaurung (now renamed to Stockfish) for the iPad very soon anyway, regardless of iOS 4.2 (I'm running it in iOS 3.2, and it works fine). It's already submitted to the App Store, and is just waiting fo...

I like the current chess pieces for Glaurung, my favourite are the USCF, and out of the 4 options I only have that I can't see my self ever using. I have PAID for other chess apps on Ipod and been dissapointed at the quality of the appearance. Thanks, I'm glad at least some people are satisfied wit...

It's ready for beta testing now. I started a thread over at the Computer Chess Club with some information for those who want to test. Head over there if you're interested.

Tord is there the possibility to have the multiPV in the analyse mode ? The iPad have a bigger screen :wink: A little further down the line, it is definitely possible, but I won't include it in the initial version. The initial version will probably be 100% identical to the iPhone version feature-wi...

What screenshot? I could not find it. It's still there. Just look back a few posts. The iPhone version has terrible looking chessmen. I'm sorry you don't like it, but I'm a chess programmer, not a graphical designer. The two tasks are about as different from each other as playing chess is from carv...

This will be really good. I have the iPhone version on my iPad Now and look forward to having this iPad version. It looks really nice. Egrit How does it work on an iPad? What are the main issues with using the iPhone version on the iPad? The iPad can run almost all iPhone apps. The exception is app...

Seems to me that given the number of these apps likely being sold, Tord should be getting a little cut of the proceeds. I'm not interested in that. Computer chess is a hobby, I'm not trying to make a living from it. Some good news: I finally got myself an iPad last week, and started programming thi...

Sorry, if I want to buy an iPad, I will get one! Sure, there are a few people who import iPads privately and sell them for twice the regular price. Do you really think it is fair to demand that I pay twice the regular price for an iPad just to be able to give away a free chess app a little earlier?...

Hi, More than four months since the last posting and no reaction from the developer ... very sad ... more than 3.000.000 iPads sold ... and still no iPad Version .... Sad Regards, Sascha That's because the situation is still exactly the same as when you first asked: The iPad is still not available ...

Hi Tord, thanks for your post.... by the way how can i use your special version, until now i bought all chess engine for iphone in the appstore...so how can i use your version? Regards Andi In the same way all beta testers install development versions: You send me the device ID of your phone, and I...

Awesome! I look forward to following the games and results. I see that you are using a game/60 minutes time control. Unfortunately, iPhone Glaurung doesn't support time controls slower than game/30 minutes. If you want me to send you a private version with support for game/60, please drop me a PM.
