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/
Ciao a Tutti.
ReplyDeleteVorrei chiedere come è possibile trasferire i risultati di lucas elo, i risultati della sezione competizione, i risultati del database fics da lucas chess già installato su pc ad un computer portatile o in caso di formattazione salvare i risultati. La versione 9.03 non si aggiorna alla versione 9.04 e non vorrei perdere il mio punteggio. Come posso fare?
Grazie.
All data of user is in the UsrData folder, in the installation folder of LC.
DeleteYou may copy this folder.

ReplyDeleteПочему в базе завершенных партий при при просмотре нельзя использовать движок для анализа партии
ReplyDeleteWhich are the options that you use to detect the problem?
DeleteIs it possible to add two features:
ReplyDelete- Premove (make move when my opponent are thinking)
- Autoqueen (always promote to queen).
Hi! Lucas, what you say?
DeleteHi!, is possible to add the feature to enter move with keyboard? it's helpful to use with home made usb chess board (similar to dgt but not th same!)
ReplyDeleteThank you
Try, by example, to write e2e4, when playing a new game.
DeleteWOW Great!!! Thank You!!!
DeleteCan Lucas "speak" his move by speacker??? so you can hear the move and do on chess board.
Lucas Chess GREAT JOB!!!
It needs some voice recording, Options, Sound, Custom sounds.
DeleteThen it is necessary to activate in Options, Configuration, Sounds.
Thank you Lucas and excuse me for my horrible english!
DeleteI will try this function, it is great for blind player too!
Good Play to you!
Fabio
It does it very well!!!!
DeleteGreat!
Great software! NB, the windows version works fine for me in Linux with Crossover Office.
ReplyDeleteI played on Botvinik expert on "Play" and other GMs in Tourney engines. At the mid game especially if the game is closed they are stopping to move. Please help sir. Thank you.

ReplyDeleteAt the end the instruction more clear and with more details...
DeleteWell, thank you for that, but goodness it is involved. Moreover, as well as having to follow all of those (not especially clear!) instructions, I had to (on Linux Mint 64-bit) install the 'g++' compiler and its dependencies. EDIT: and I had to install something else you did not mention.
ReplyDeleteFurther EDIT: I got stuck at the 'Sphinx' install stuff - with the error 'You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list'. Please help.
To bypass need of install sphinx, it was necessary to edit the file ./Code/Voice.py, replacing line 10 [from pocketsphinx import Decoder] with: [class Decoder: pass], in this way voice don´t works (not a great loss).

DeleteUncomment every line of the repositories sources that begin with deb-src, so erase the character # in the first position and save at the end... and update the repositories

Maybe delete the last instrucction of instalation and replace for it:

Hi Mandy, one idea can be to create an entry of the blog to show your instructions. If you allow me, I could copy your message.
DeleteEncantado Lucas, pues claro que sí, has con estas instrucciones lo que mejor estimes y puedes contar con mi modesto apoyo... Te agradezco esta maravilla que has hecho y que estoy estudiando poco a poco su funcionamiento y siento no haberla descubierto antes.
DeleteEstoy averiguando si tu programa usa directamente los "Engines" ya instalados en Linux por defecto o los que aparecen en "EnginesLinux" que vienen con la fuente pues en tus fuentes no están compilados para arquitectura ARM (Raspberry Pi) y habría que optar por portarlos e instalarlos ahí y usar el mismo nombre que los ejecutables que vienen defecto tras recompilarlos (o ponerlos en una carpeta aparte para esa arquitectura con el consiguiente enlace del programa a estos engines en esa carpeta) y recompilar los que se puedan para ARM corrigiendo los fallos de compilación que se presenten.
Pudiera brindarte los paquetes ya compilados para Debian/Ubuntu/LinuxMint en architectura ARM e i386 y de esa forma no habría que recompilar y hacer tantos arreglos, sino descargarlos quizás del git e instalarlos.
Estoy repasando y viendo si es posible portar tu programa (la ventaja un poco de python) para que se muestre en un ambiente web. No sé si has estudiado esa opción que sería la bomba en un ambiente educativo en red y que el profesor un poco pueda ver que hace cada alumno desde el servidor y que pueda controlar y dar puntualmente observaciones a cada uno...
Vamos a ver si tras cacharrear un poco el programa me pongo y hago un manual que permita uno saber por donde empezar y que lo guíe poco a poco en la lógica del programa pues con tantas opciones se pierde uno creo.
Un saludo y gracias por tu enorme aporte.
Perfecto Mandy. Desde mi punto de vista lo mejor sería poder proporcionar lotes completos al usuario, similar al instalador de windows. Los motores hay que definirlos en código. Habría que crear una carpeta por ejemplo EnginesARM, con unos cuantos motores compilados en esta arquitectura.
DeleteEl programa utiliza pyqt4 como librería GUI, y no creo que sea portable a web.
Quizás lo mejor es que me escribas directamente a lukasmonk en gmail.
Lucas, tu programa es una bendición para todos los aficionados del ajedrez que queremos entrenar de forma sistemática.
ReplyDeleteMandy, gracias por el excelente y pulcro trabajo de transcribir las instrucciones para instalar lucaschess, en especial para los que tenemos Linux, pero somos principiantes en ese sistema operativo.
I have Ubuntu 14.0.4LTS but when I tried to compile it , I had an error
