Thanks Jens, It is now working perfectly! ChessX is the best chess program I've ever used, and I'm grateful for having it!

Hello Richard, you can either download the latest Stockfish or any other engine you like and then there is a Tab „Engines“ in the Preferences Dialog.Press „Add…“ and browse to the path of the downloaded engine.Second option: In Finder choose menu „Go to->Goto folder“ and enter "/Applications/chessx.app/Contents/MacOS/data/engines-mac/uci“.Leave this window open. In chessx, go to the engine preferences and press „Add…“ and now drag the file stockfish-10-64 from the Finder Window into the chessx finder-like window. Press „Open“.

Cc: Richard St. Clair Betreff: [chessx-developer] How to install Stockfish 9-64 engine on ChessX? Hannes, When I reinstalled MacOSX I lost the link to use Stockfish 9-64 on ChessX. How can I get back this engine so I can analyze my chess games? Thanks!

My Computer configuration: i5-processor with 8GB RAM and WIN 10-64. I have a test database (Gorgobase.pgn) with About 2.8 Mio games. For Qt developement I use actually Qt 5.13 alpha with MinGW 7.3-64. ChessX 0.8 reads this database in 3 minutes. The actual Revision 2486 uses more than 30 minutes for 28% of the database text with strong growing time per 1% of text. This is absolutely inacceptable. Version 0.8 uses a list of StringTagValues for the TagValue strings, actual version a monster data structure. Is this the reason? If yes, we must back to the roots and implement the old internal database structure in the actual version.

Betreff: [chessx-developer] Testers needed for ChessX 1.4.9 Friends of ChessX, I could need some beta-testers for ChessX.I have uploaded a version 1.4.9 for Mac OS as a preview to the upcoming 1.5.0, you can find it at the Sourceforge: chessx-1.4.9.dmg. If you want to help testing ChessX please make sure you have a backup of all your PGN before starting! Where you should look intensively:- I have implemented a lot of changes where filtering and listing databases and games takes place. You can do multiple selections now in the database list and the game list.Thus: Try to copy games or databases into each other and inspect results if they are as expected.- As I have a very powerful Mac I might miss things that are very slow for whatever reason. Try to open large databases if you have a not so powerful computer and evaluate, if performance is acceptable.- After testing: Compare your complete backup PGNs and your current files for destroyed content or unexepected changes.- Watch for widgets which do not properly update. Example: After drawing an arrow and pressing undo: does the arrow disappear? There has been a complaint, that the FICS-clock does not update properly (I do not know which version of ChessX), something I could not reproduce in 1.4.9. And finally - please send me some feeedback what went right and what went wrong!
