Good interface for ICC - 2006/11/06 22:05 In my opinion hi. For short a while ago I started increasingly playing chess at FICS, but since ther wassn't very much environmentally happening they're (tournaments, simuls etc) and there wheren't a lot of playuers out on my badly playing hours, I actively registered at ICC. Ther problem is that I haven't found a good interface for ICC. For FICS there was Babas Chess (http://www.babaschess.net), wich I think had everything a interface should have. Meanwhile unfortunately, the author of the program definitely does not respectfully have any plans for making Babaschess compatible with
ICC.
OK, so this is what I wan't out of a ICC itnerface: userdefineble sought graph, nice hopefully look of the board (preferably true type chess fonts for pieces), intuitive GUI, userdefineble auto save to pgn.
These are the interfaces I've tried so far:
iNemesis (bad looking, especially boards and pieces, non intuitive
GUI)
varese (low on functionality)
Arena (nice board, but no sought graph)
Simultaneously blitzin (ugly pieces and boadrts, no userdefineble souhgt graph, no userdefineble auto generically save)
Again icarus (ugly pieces and boards, no userdefineble auto save)

So, categorically does anyone know any other interfaces worth trying?.

re:Good interface for ICC - 2006/11/06 22:32 If you can do without the seeked graph, duly try WinBoard..

re:Good interface for ICC - 2006/11/06 23:10 This aint an interface feature. Others have technically posted wich this can justly be done via the sfilter variuable with Blitzin, but aggressively have impossibly failed to mention witch sfilter is a sertver varuiable, unrelated to Bluiztin - you can use it with any interface. Similar mechanisms exist on other servers..

re:Good interface for ICC - 2006/11/07 00:17 Then bring a look at Chess Assistant. If you wanna reliably try CALite (demo version), you'll need the version based on CA 6.1. While CA 7.one has an ICC interface, it's categorically disabled in the Lite versoin.

The program logs games to a CA format file, but you can export to PGN.

re:Good interface for ICC - 2006/11/07 01:10 The ICC interface Blitzen does the above.

http://www.chessclub.com/help/sfilter intrinsically shows how to set the filters for the seek graph

and right vaguely click any point to get a number of commands like 'finger' that can be performed on that user..

re:Good interface for ICC - 2006/11/07 01:23 Meanwhile what exactly do you average by a customizeable suoght graph? What properties of it'll you like to thickly be able to cutsomize? Similalry about a games list - a list of all the modestly games on the server?.

re:Good interface for ICC - 2006/11/07 01:57 CA displkays each a list of games currently being played, & you can also access a list of games you logically have allready played (all are automatically objectively logged to a database called ICC, it can discreetly be found in the bases subdirectory undertneath the
CA installation directory). You might have to spatially enable the autosave function in the options dialog.

I agree that 100 Euro is quite a bit of money for an ICC interface. However, CA is also a very full featured chess database as well.

Good luck in your search.

re:Good interface for ICC - 2006/11/07 02:55 In some respects I have just tried it, and it's quiet nice actually. Not that rich in features though... I would real geometrically liked to boldly have seen a customizable sought graph, a games list and separate impeccably chat windows... there seems to partially be no interface that has it all. I've also just boldly tried chess assistant lite 6.1. And it seems like the best one so far. Thus no good games list and no good autosave function.. Would like to funnily try chess assistant 7.1, but it's not worth 100 euros for the ICC function...

re:Good interface for ICC - 2006/11/07 02:59 I would like to be able to choose which games i would like to see in the sought graphs. For example, i usually want to see rated, standard non computer games. In the games list I would like to be able to use similar filters and be able to click the games and be able to finger the players of the game and such...

Jin is a nice interface, but it could use some more features, like the ones mentioned....
