I don't supposed I'll be lucky enough that Chess Explorer is enhanced for the Retina Display MBP's?

Also ..... any nearer to a release? Have been aching for a chess GUI since Apple dropped support for legacy PPC apps in Lion/Mountain Lion. And all the other GUI offerings are weak to say the least...

Yes it supports Retina display for the chess board/piece graphics with up to 2400x2400 pixel chess boards without any loss of quality.

Final installer is being built.

I have projects that take an hour to build, but 3 days? Maybe you need to invest in a slightly faster computer.

I don't just build something and shove it out the door!

It needs to be regression tested.

Don't worry Mark - if Chess Explorer is as special I suspect it will be - then all the delay & lack of info will be soon forgotten.

I for one have been checking daily for at least 6 months - so it did get a little frustrating. With a project of this scale it must be almost impossible to release it free from all flaws..you only have to look at the Aquarium release & the subsequent updates that followed!

Hoping to get my hands on your Magnum Opus soon

New HIARCS Chess Server integrated with the new Chess Explorer GUI provide innovative new features for chess players.
What does this mean? Is it a server to play chess like ICC or FICS?
