Latest version Chess Studio Lite: 4.3.0
- IN THIS RELEASE (4.3.0)
• Fixed an error that caused the application to behave incorrectly if multiple engine analysis lines were set.
• Minor bug fixes, general improvements and optimizations.
- MAIN FEATURES INTRODUCED IN THE LATEST RELEASES
• A new training feature has been added: the user can load a game from a database and decide whether to move for White or Black without seeing the moves to evaluate his skills. At the end a report will be produced that traces the entire training session. It is possible to use this functionality either by choosing the game to train with or by letting the application decide the game in random mode. To use this functionality, some settings are possible via an appropriate interface. There are various ways to access this functionality, for example from the menu at the top center of the chessboard screen. In future versions of the application this training mode will be expanded and enhanced.
• Chess Studio can now read databases in ChessBase format. It can import cbh, cbp, cbt, cbg, cba, cbs and cbc formats, thus it is able to interpret not only the moves of a game but also the variations and comments.
• The new version of the Stockfish 16.1 engine has been integrated with the support of Neural Networks (NNUE). The neural network architecture has undergone two updates and is currently in its 8th version. This release marks the removal of the traditional handcrafted evaluation and the transition to fully neural network-based approach. Dual NNUE: For the first time, Stockfish includes a secondary neural network, used to quickly evaluate positions that are easily decided.
• A new section dedicated to training has been added. At the moment it is possible to solve a series of puzzles taken from games played mainly online. These are puzzles suitable for all players. There are currently 20,000 puzzles available but they will be continuously updated. Other types of puzzles of increasing difficulty will be included in the future.
• New feature: Search for games by position. This new feature is found in the main menu under the "PGN Tools" section. It allows you to search for games in a database starting from a given position. The position can be set both with normal pieces but also with different symbols that have different meanings. In this way it will be possible to search, for example, all the games that have a typical pawn structure regardless of the position of the other pieces.
• Possibility to choose between different layouts of the board on the screen according to the users needs. For those using Chess Studio on the iPad, this feature allows you to scroll through the moves of a game with a tap on the right or left of the chessboard.
• Possibility of playing online using the Lichess platform. For blind or visually impaired players this feature is fully supported by Voice Over.
• Automatic insertion of engine analysis into games. To enter the analysis, simply touch the engine analysis line. To use this feature you need to activate it in the application settings.
• The new function "Search games by material" has been added, through which it is possible to search for games in a database according to the material present on the chessboard. This new functionality is accessed from the main menu of the application.
• New feature that allows you to delete tags in a database (Detag). This functionality is accessed from the list of possible operations on a database.
• From the opening section of a database it is possible to save the games relating to a single ECO code or to a single opening variant in a new database. To do this, just swipe left on the opening variant you want to save and follow the directions.
• For those users who need explanations on the application it is possible to organize a Skype session. Contact me via email at [email protected]
