... based on the Alpha figure set
Re: How to install custom pieces?
To complete the set, there is a set of figures in which all white pieces are shown as white pawns and all black pieces are shown as black pawns. Basis: Alpha figure set from Hiarcs. I hope it helps one or the other to train visualization. EST.

Re: How to install custom pieces?
I'm thinking about whether it would make sense to create sets of pieces in which only certain pieces, for example the king or the pawns, are hidden. Maybe it would be useful to start with just hiding one figure in the view and then gradually increasing it. What do you think? EST

Hi, can you make this available again since the folder is currently empty? Thanks.schadfield wrote: ↑Sat May 14, 2022 10:49 am It is a question of having the correct files in the correct places
Download Lichess.png from here: https://1drv.ms/f/s!AhfLAkrQNW7u-22nEKYOcOcoP6V7.
Copy it to the Hiarcs installation directory in ./themes, ./themes/outline and ./themes/shadow.
You can now select Lichess as a piece set.

Here is a HIARCS theme file (1800x600 PNG) for Lichess' Staunty theme.
