3.9.5 - July 29, 2013
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
Note for distributors:
|
|
|
|
We now recommend installing the HoiChess engine by default, instead of GNUChess
|
|
or Phalanx (or really anything else), in order to make the game actually
|
|
winnable for mortals. See the long-running Bug #475535 for more information on
|
|
why HoiChess is recommended. The Debian package has build patches, if needed.
|
|
|
|
Changes since 3.9.4:
|
|
|
|
- Added support for the Octochess engine
|
|
- Easier Easy/Normal settings for many engines
|
|

|
|

|

|

|

|
|
- Some new toolbar items were missing tooltips
|
|
- Add keyboard shortcuts for previous/next move
|
|
- 3D: improve alignment of file letters
|
|
- Autosave: always forget games after they are completed
|
|
- Remove face-to-face board orientation
|
|
- Suggest longer game durations
|
|
- Instruct CECP engines to add randomness to play
|
