Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I am developing two Chess Puzzles programs for Color Maximite 2.
The first one will feature 2000 puzzles taken from various sources.
The second one will include about 1.6 million puzzles.  The user provides
the name of the PGN file and then the program retrieves a random puzzle
from that file.  The user guesses the best line of play and presses the enter
key or space bar when ready to see the solution.  The user again presses
one of those keys to retrieve another puzzle.
Forsyth-Edwards Notation, which is utilized in one of my programs, is
explained in the picture below.

Would anyone be interested in a PGN Chess Viewer program for Color Maximite 2 to play through collections of chess games?

UMM Had YES, But can I opt out on all Hans Niemann Games? Niemann games Require Optional Hardware, I don't have :)

You know, I thought I might see about including an MP3 file with Hans Niemann saying “My chess speaks for itself.” as an introduction to the program.  Hans Niemann won his game today against Nyzhnyk, increasing his rating to 2700.
