Chessmaster 10th Edition ECO Entry in PGN Files - 2007/01/27 21:50 Can anyone tell me what the abbreviation "oft" stands for that Chessmaster 10th Edition puts in the .pgn "tag pairs" for the ECO opening line? Here is how it appears in the .pgn file after I save a game as a .pgn file type without annotation or analysis: [ECO "oft"]

I know that ECO is the Encyclopedia of Chess Openings coding system for the opening classification and I have a complete list of the codes (A-E) and the corresponding opening names and moves. But just what is "oft" supposed to mean?

Just curious....

Re:Chessmaster 10th Edition ECO Entry in PGN Files - 2007/03/29 05:45 I can't tell you what the 'oft' stands for. Only that I have the exact same issue with the app. I try to import my games from an ICC PGN file and all I get is 'oft' all the way down the list. I am starting to hate CM. I have shelled out lots of cash for all the Chessmaster games going all the way back to CM4000. Their database system sucks.

I'm sorry I can't help you with this.
Post a reply if you figure it out.

Re:Chessmaster 10th Edition ECO Entry in PGN Files - 2007/12/13 21:06 Do you have a chessmaster manual?

All the game settings can be found in the preferences menu. try tweaking chessmasters interface section. try file/save menu from the drop down menu.
some actions are not avl. with right click menu.

let me know if that helps.
