Re: feature request for annotation explorer
Yes, this is very convenient and why I like the current implementation. Is there a shortcut for adding comments? I've not seen one in the help.

Re: feature request for annotation explorer
I think that is a nice feature especially if we need to add annotation to existing games in a database. I find the current system is good and convenient for adding comments as I play through a game. It also avoids unnecessarily using screen space, but I can see that the annotation explorer idea bein...

Re: Three times repetition of a position
We are not yet sure how to handle the same position appearing in variations (useful for opening analysis, may be confusing for game analysis). I appreciate the difficulty. Maybe the user could highlight the range of moves to be checked for repetition, this way the opening moves could be left out? J...

Re: Three times repetition of a position
If you need computer software to see 3 fold repetition, don't be an arbiter. Don't be lazy and do the work. It is just seeing whether the exact same pieces appear 3 times, the exact en passant opportunities appear 3 times and whether castling rights for both sides are exactly the same 3 times. It i...

Re: Three times repetition of a position
I'm probably stating the obvious and you know this already! One semi-automatic way to detect a drawn position would be to set HCE to analysis mode and step through the moves of the game. I did this with your test game and on the 3rd repetition the eval was 0.00 and no more analysis took place. This...

Re: Three times repetition of a position
Does version recognize repition of a position? I have not found anything. [Event "?"] [Site "?"] [Date "2024.02.15"] [Round "?"] [White "?"] [Black "?"] [Result "*"] [ECO "A05"] [PlyCount "24"] 1.Nf3 Nf6 2.Nc3...

Re: Searching for Chessbase alike function "In this game..."
Hi. I don't know if this suggestion will help but it's the first thought I had. You could simply create an empty database and then copy and paste the game you want to search into this new database. You can then use the search database menu option to search this database of 1 game for the position or...

First Impressions of the Chessnut Evo
I've just received the Chessnut Evo computer and here are my initial impressions after a quick test. I have also posted this on Schachcomputer.info so some of you may have already read this. Positive points: It seems to have good build quality. A large and quite heavy board approx 32cm x 36cm, so no...

Re: HIARCS resigns in draw endgame?
Ah, I missed that bit in Balaggio's post. However, on my PC with HCPro Premium Fortress Detection is available.

Re: HIARCS resigns in draw endgame?
Yes, I opted for the Premium Edition. I don't think the multi-core version has Fortress Detection according to the description found here:

Re: HIARCS resigns in draw endgame?
The 'Detect Fortress' option can be found under Configure Engine options by clicking on the Cog in the Engine output panel. It's set to False by default. It can also be found by clicking on the Preferences Cog at the top and going to the Engines tab and double clicking on 'Deep HIARCS15.2'. Hi, Tha...

Re: HIARCS resigns in draw endgame?
Thanks Mark. I re-tested by making a move in the above position and this time H15.2 stops analysing almost immediately with an eval of -0.03/7. That's indicating that it is using the loaded tablebases as you say.
