HIARCS Chess Forums

Hello, I don't get the clou in what it exactly means or works respectively. Can anybody help me in understanding this feature and its handling? Thanks in advance Uwe I love HCE and the new update but I agree with this post. I can't see where or how to use this new feature (Last Move Blunders Detect...

Just wondering about any upcoming Hiarcs releases? My chess budget has some rare overflow. :) Is Junior still being released as a Hiarcs product? I know they often take some time in between releases. And it has been awhile. I know that HCE 2 is in the works as is Hiarcs 15. And look forward to both ...

HCE is now the only GUI I use. It is hands down the easiest and most efficient GUI, database, and opening reference all rolled into one unit. Still have two small feature requests: Search by material. Would love that to search for training material with more leeway than a position search. And the ab...

When using the "Online Book: GM" after 1.d4 Nf3, its apparently out of book. http://i.imgur.com/ERXFw5S.png Thank you Rafael Ramirez Sometimes the online book can be quirky. And it will go "out of book" when it clearly isn't. Not sure why. You aren't the only one who has experie...

HCE is a great product and the continual updates are awesome. I was wondering if material search and the ability to only see the engine's score in infinite analysis (like on the Hiarcs Ipad app) were on the agenda anytime soon? Even if in a paid upgrade in a 2.0 series? I find these to be two crucia...

I was wondering if there are any plans to make the Junior Opening book available to be viewed HCE.

As HCE has become my most used GUI I do miss looking at the Junior Book for suggestions. (as it is a bit different)

Just curious!

Thanks.

As usual this is a free update for existing customers. You can read about the new features of v1.4 here: http://hiarcs.com/chess-explorer.htm All customers have been emailed about the new version. You can also use the Help->Check for updates menu option to find out more about it and download the ne...

That does look a lot nicer!

I imagine searching a database by material is something that will appear in a much later version?

Here is an example were it gets hard to read. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3801066/Screenshots/8sum.png There are only two variations, still six lines have the same indent. Indent doesn’t help you here, you need to look at the move numbers. I think highlighting the first moves would really make it a lot...

All the features of Filter are still available using the Last search source. Except last search allows traversal of games, variations forward and backards while syncing positions with statistics and games. There is a new tab in Preferences. Preferences->Appearences->Guess move = Never. Thanks! I di...

Love the new update and player reports.


Kind of miss the filter but I think I can figure that out.

But how do I turn off Guess Move and the "expected square highlighted thing"?

I don't see that tick box anymore in preferences.

Thanks!

What might be the possibility of making the Junior 13 book visible in HCE via online. (for those who purchased Junior 13 of course)

I'ld like input from others as regarding human like play. I'm just a beginer, so I can't really tell that much, but if you have a high rating how human like do you feel the play is? Could you tell you were playing a program if you did not know?? Thanks for input! I am a bonafide patzer myself but I...

I have this feature on HIARCS Chess on the iPad already since 2011. This feature is likely to be added to the next update of HIARCS Chess Explorer. I knew it was on the Hiarcs Ipad. :D That is why I was hoping it would eventually come to Chess Explorer... Oh and I love the way the HCE copies games ...

This would be a really great feature, even while playing against computer! In the Shredder Classic GUI there is a toggle switch for "less information" from the engine. It still gives a move but by resizing the engine window you don't see the move ALL you see is the engine's evaluation. I ...
