It has only been made possible by the great work done by Laudecir Daniel , choosing and compiling the 67 engines, as well as laying the groundwork so that the binaries can be more widely used and others such as shortcut creation, installation scripts, ...... In addition, Graham O'Neill has provided Linux-specific drivers for several digital boards. This version has two limitations : 64-bit Linux OS only. Minimum GNU libc version: 2.26 (ldd --version shows it) Installation has been made as simple as possible: The installer is a .sh file, generated with the makeself tool, and can be downloaded from: SourceForge , GitHub The file must be run from a terminal with user permissions only: sh ./LucasChessR123_LINUX.sh Launches a GUI with very basic options: Install: Installs in LucasChessR folder inside the home user folder. Generates a shortcut in Applications > Games Launch the application at the end

You could edit again and change the Alias field.
DeleteI tried making tactics training from my own game. But some tactics have more than five moves. Is there a way to make tactics that have 1 to 4 moves only?
ReplyDeleteNot directly, you can edit the files generated (in the folder of the program, UsrData subfolder, Personal trainings, , with Notepad and edit the line of the tactic (second group of |)and remove moves not needed.
