ChessGUI 0.182 is out there.

- WB "feature option"

However, in this ChessGUI version, you must play at least one game with default engine settings before you can configure them.
Examples of engines that support WB "feature option" are Gaviota and Knockout.

Thanks for the update. I am interested in building a fair size book. What does the following mean? "The remis book is always ChsGUI_Book.cgb"

The book with equal chances for black and white is automaitically named ChsGUI_Book.cgb during creation.
After creation, it can be manually renamed but name must end with ".cgb".
Only games that end as remis "1/2-1/2" are considered for this book.

ChessGUI 0.183 is out.

- new option "Advanced WB2 Install" installs WB2 engines using engine internal names (if available) and allows config of WB2 "feature option" engines already during install.

ChessGUI 0.184 is out there.

- fixes a recently introduced bug in Chess960 Swiss tournaments.
- "Alternate Colours" in Swiss tournaments will now play a double round in each cycle, alternating colours.

I found a bug in this new type of Swiss tournament. Will fix it soon.
Ordinary one-round Swiss tournaments are not affected.

Matthias.

ChessGUI 0.185 is out there.

- more flexible time controls
- Swiss tournament bugfix

Caution: to finish a tournament started with an older ChessGUI, revisit the tournament timecontrol window first.
