Version 8 step 1


The next version will be the 8, I have no date for its publication, the most likely to take at least one year, in the meantime I will publish the development version from time to time.

To begin, some improves in relation to 7.05 :


  1. Visual changes, Options-Configuration:
    • Showing points of analysis:
      • White´s point of view. if positive wins white, if negative wins black. (shahingy)
      • Pawns vs Centipawns. ( F.Marmale)
    • Show move candidates, when pressing any square.
  2. Mouse shortcuts, extended.(bbbaro25us)
  3. Some GM personalities added to tourney-elo by Michele Tumbarello.

And the main change is not visible, the use of winglet engine (created by Stef Luijten http://www.sluijten.com/winglet/), as a fast movement generator. The idea is to extend its use throughout the program.

Version R

New version of the program. Continuist at user level with the previous one, but with great internal changes. This new version has been mainly tried: Update the code to a current version of the compiler, from python 2.7 to python 3.7 (based in a previous work of Alfonso Solbes). Update the graphic library, from version 4 to 5 of qt, via pyside2. Improve folder organization, with Linux support in mind. Negative consequences: It is incompatible with Windows XP. The data is not compatible with previous versions of Lucas Chess. The weight of the installer has doubled, currently around 120 Mb and the disk installation occupies 338 Mb.

 This update contains a major improvement with the inclusion of Maia. Maia is a neural network chess engine, created with the purpose of making her movements as human as possible. The Maia creation team has prepared 9 versions, from 1100 to 1900 of elo, and thus they have been included in Lucas Chess. You have all the information about Maia at: https://maiachess.com/
