Hello,
I would like to lead your attention to a chess database program I have
developed called RChess.
What I wanted to achieve is that I can develop an opening repertoire, which
is not stored in games. Also I wanted to have the information visible
whenever I have a position on the board referenced by it. Chessbase does
not solve this I tried to go with SCID, but it was too slow for me. To solve
all the following goals the UI structure would have needed to be redesigned,
nothing what in SCID could be done.
So is RChess interesting for you?
I you like to play games => no
Play on server => no
Engine tournaments => no
Chess960 => not jet
Work on Chess => yes
Develop an own opening repertoire => yes
Analyze actual games => yes
Use an engine (local or in cloud) to help => yes
Correspondence chess => yes and no
When preparing for an opponent I wanted to optimize the information I can
see in a single view for the position
on the board independent which game I have loaded:
* What does my opponent play,
* How successful was my opponent
* What do players e.g. with rating 2400 or more play
* How successful were these players in this position
* Did I analyze this position for my repertoire
* Which move did I plan to play in my repertoire
* What was the evaluation of an engine when I analyzed it
before
* Did the computer propose a move which is not in my
repertoire
* Did I wrote a remark for this position
When working on the own repertoire e.g. for the Slav with black you may
replace the results of your opponent by the results of Dreev.
When I get a list of new games it is again the same procedure. RChess is
able to order the games depending on my repertoire. The most interesting
games come first. Then I load these game, jump to the move where it leaves
my repertoire and evaluate the new move like before.
The repertoire allows you to let an engine work on it and important train to
remember it.
