Some days ago Juan Carlos Antón, head of UNED chess school , does give me permission to include tactical positions from the PDFs on the downloads of UNED web, which I consider very educational. The problem is there is no possibility of obtaining original fens. The solution to ease my work, has been to create something like an OCR of image positions, which at this specific case is working very well. Only three concepts are handled : mark, deduce, and learn. First, mark the board, the next step is to deduce, if there are errors the user corrects them manually and asked the program to learn from them. At the beginning there are quite a few errors, but less and less. To mark the Board a transparent window is launched that occupies the desk and lets see the PDF and select a position. It is selected with the mouse by dragging a corner to the other, and it is fitted with the arrow keys. At the end the Enter key is pressed to accept the selected and continue in the program wi...

Thank you Lucas.
ReplyDeleteHola Lucas:
ReplyDelete¡Excelente programa! ¿Existe la versión 10 para Linux?
¡Saludos!
La estoy desarrollando sin pensar en Linux, así que no es compatible inicialmente, necesita algo de trabajo de adaptación.
Delete¡Qué lástima! De todas formas estoy usando la versión 9.08a en Linux y funciona muy bien. Gracias por esta gran creación.
Deletegood day Lucas,
ReplyDeleteI want to analyze a finished game. I went to utilities then click analyze. In the general options, there is the "Depth". What is that? And then in the Brilliances, there is the "Minimum Depth" and "Minimum Gain Points". How important are ,those? Normally, I just analyze my games without touching those things.
Depth: to indicate the engine fixed number of moves to eval.
DeleteMinimum depth: to consider a brillancie, it is necessary that the engine thinks that this is the best move when it has reach this depth, not previously.
Minimum gain points: min points to consider this as brillancie.
They are important to extract brillancies to a file.
The Lucas Chess GUI is an awesome program, and it just got better!!! I picked this as the #1 UCI-Compatible Chess Program in my article/hub...http://hubpages.com/games-hobbies/Top-5-Free-Chess-GUIs-for-UCI-Engines
ReplyDeleteContinue to be awesome...

Thank you very much for the article. In relation to the impression of a score sheet is not complicated to implement, I write it down, and when I have time I try to include.
DeleteWelcome! I don't physically write my chess moves down, because I am unable. I have cerebral palsy and cannot write fast nor clearly enough for it to be practical. However, I do have a USCF certified electronic scoresheet that I use, and I can print it out using chessbase reader 12, which is free. So it's an important addition, I still use Lucas Chess GUI much more often than any other chess program.
DeleteEthan send me a template (by example the USCF certified electronic scoresheet if this is legal or that you consider better) to work on. And to my email: lukasmonk at gmail.
DeleteI would like to say that this blog really convinced me to do it! Thanks, very good post. http://www.win-at-chess.com
