I'm interested in this, I'm not too good at chess, you'll defiantly see me trade off queens alot, and try to get into an endgame. You can see some examples of my game play at chess.com my user name is cndr.

thanks for the feedback, I have found some bugs in the program, and am repairing them, one you might notice is if you have a knight on f3 and try to move to h2 it wont work in the version I have out, already fixed it though. I've been doing some reworking of some functions, and messed up checking so...

I didn't think of putting white inside the white pieces, what I did was I changed the colour of the black pieces. I'll try out the white background.

Checking is now implemented, the only thing left to do is checkmate and stalemate. If you find any glitches with the code please tell me, I should note that if you turn off legal moves, checking still works, I will be fixing that next update. I have separated the downloads in case you already have t...

I am working on chess pieces for my chess program, and I can't seem to get a good colour scheme, the current colours I have going on right now seem pretty dull, does anyone have any recommendations?

I now have checking fully implemented, was pretty easy after I finished the bit boards. I will be releasing a new version when I make my own pieces.

it's coming along, I haven't really had a good chance to program, but I have bit boards almost implemented, and am going to use them for the checking system I think, I'll see what else I can improve with them after thats all taken care of.

here is a pgn of a game I just watched, what do you think of the endgame? I didn't watch the whole thing came in at around move 20, why didn't white play Qd5 on move 29 (instead of Qb4), I think the endgame would have favored white in this position, and I think Qc2+ at move 41 was a mistake, Kxh4 lo...

I soft modded mine was playing wolfenstien 3d the other day, today was watching some dvds.

I've pretty much have always used c++, only recently have I learned SDL. started out with hangman, then moved on and did a poker program twice, improving the code each time, I then did a tic-tac-toe game, and am now working on a chess game, it's not very impressive but I've been coding for about a y...

I think I might pretty much restart my project, and change everything to bit boards, and get it all ready for AI, I might post my source code for my the chess project in the links, if there is any interest of course.

I was thinking about adding pgn support, but I have not solved how to do it yet, as for taking back moves I have an idea on how to do it, I'll do some testing on it after I finish up some code.

you do need the parameters (int argc, char *argv[]) for linux.

I've almost completed what I set out to do with this chess program, I only have checking left to implement, I might do AI in this project or I might restart and make it more AI friendly. I thought now would be a good time to release a preview of what the game is like, I know that the game works in x...

I usually comment most of my code, mainly so I quickly find what I'm looking for. When I'm testing out my programs at the top of each file I usually put what the known issues are with the program, and ideas on how to fix them, I also write what the last thing I was working on, in case I take a coupl...
