Fancy
Home - Chess Composition in TORUN
I decided on doing the last version of FANCY (series 2.x for Windows). Now Fancy 2.9 has a simple interface to Stockfish (to solve studies).
Popeye 4.51 and Stockfish 1.6.3 JA are versions recommended to work with Fancy 2.9.
TIPS for Stockfish:
The path to FANCY should not contain spaces.
"Set path" in "Options" window for Stockfish-exe (Popeye too!).
Set "Threads", if you have a multi-processor (threads) computer.
Set "Hash memory" to a minimum 128 (MB), if you have a sufficient amount of RAM.
Set "Limit time" to a higher value and use the button "View solution" during of solving, repeatedly.
Stop the solving by "Ctrl+C" (twice), like Popeye.
The columns of solving are: depth, score ("+" or "-" for the starting side!), time and nodes.
Due to a potential menace to my venture, I have to introduce some protections to my products and myself.
FANCY (FANCY-Publisher) is, in fact, free software. FANCY (FANCY-Publisher) is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY.
There is a risk that the software can (could) be exchanged by a harmful program (e.g. virus).
It is impossible to check the legality of downloading files continually. Each of users should be aware of the menace.
