The latest known version of Fritz Chess Benchmark.exe is 4.2.0.0, which was produced for Windows. This EXE file carries a popularity rating of 1 stars and a security rating of UNKNOWN.The Fritz Powerbook 2021 contains 25 millions opening positions, derived from 1.7 million high class tournament games.![]() I like these icons, but those who don’t can turn them off in “Preferences.” I also love the digitized sound of the felted pieces landing on the wooden board, and the “clack” of wood on wood when pieces are captured, though I usually have this turned off in “Preferences” so as not to annoy others.For those who like chess puzzles of the “White to move and mate in 2” variety, Sigma Chess is the only Mac program whose “Mate Finder” mode is not only guaranteed to find such a mate if it exists, but which will find all such mates, if you tell it to.Sigma Chess has scores of other features, including rating your play, annotating your games, and printing them in double-column format with diagrams and comments. The menu selections each have color menu icons. The pieces are gorgeous, and the on-screen control buttons save a lot of time otherwise spent in travelling to the menu bar. These changes are representative of the many improvements made throughout the program.I personally prefer the 2D display, which I think is the nicest looking Macintosh chess interface available at any price. The menu bar is now visible in 3D mode, the optional digital clocks are less obtrusive, and the side to move is now indicated by glowing yellow LEDs embedded in the right edge of the wood board. The last ATPM review rated Sigma Chess 4.02 higher than all the rest, and Sigma Chess 5.1.2 is much better than 4.0.2, with many major improvements and a host of minor improvements.Starting with Sigma Chess 5, Sigma Chess was optimized for Power Macintosh, making it much stronger.If the “Novice Levels” in Sigma Chess are too easy for you, Sigma Chess 5.0 now has a “Playing Strength” feature, where you can set Sigma Chess’s approximate strength numerically (higher numbers are stronger), as an alternative to setting the time Sigma uses or the number of moves it looks ahead.Sigma is the only free Macintosh program with the option of displaying the board in a 3D view using “true perspective” pieces like those in the commercial chess programs Chessmaster 6000 and Virtual Chess.The 3D display has been polished since the earlier version. ![]() 00:48 EST #2 I did let you download chess. 19:36 EST #1 I thought you were going to let me download chess!!! Well, thanks a lot. Besides the usual ability to limit the computer’s thinking by setting a time limit or the number of moves it looks ahead, Vanessa Chess offers a unique “Adaptive strength” feature that is supposed to match its strength to yours, but I have not used it enough to know how well it works. If you find other chess programs too overwhelming, it may be easier to configure Vanessa Chess to a comfortable level. Paradoxically, this can be a good thing. The only other downloadable program that does this is the $10 shareware program PGNTalk, which doesn’t play chess or print games.The tournament results indicate that Vanessa Chess is about a tenth as strong as Sigma Chess. I would also be interested in the details on variables involved for the tournament, CPU, memory, and settings used for the programs. J03:41 EST #4 I was wondering at what time control the games were played, and if those games could be made available for download. (see "Games in PGN") Kenny You can use Sigma Chess to view these. J23:58 EST #3 If you want chess games to download, rather than chess software, here are a couple of links to chess games in PGN format. Since this was run on a single computer (Power Macintosh 7300/180), I turned permanent brain off. J00:48 EST #5 The time control was 5 seconds/move, I think. In my experiments, I note that the difference between the strength of the two largely depends on the setting I configure them with, opening book being the greatest determining factor. ![]() Same goes with MacChess 5. Too bad you didn't have the latest version of Crafty available even for the time, since later versions don't support ChessEvents.c. Novem10:57 EST #6 Good article. I'd prefer to send them in ExaChess format (more compact than PGN) if that is okay. If you like, I can email you the gamesjust drop me a line and let me know which pairings you want. I think Sigma Chess and Crafty are capable of accepting much more complete opening books (Sigma Chess in Fritz format, and Crafty in PGN format) than I used, but I thought few would take advantage of this. Sai for mac 2016As far as MacChess goes - MacChess 4.0e is compiled for PPC, so while 5.0 is hopefully somewhat improved, it isn't as dramatic as the difference between MacChess 3.0 and 4.0. Novem00:45 EST #7 You make a good point that the latest version of Crafty that was compatible with ExaChess (14.11B) is far from the most recent version of Crafty, and the most recent version of Crafty is probably a good bit stronger. For some reason, the games can hang on one machine or another. I noticed the author has updated Screamer (it's now Carbonized), though I seem to have trouble running tournaments in Exachess Lite on my computer.
