Original issue 369 reported by pe3kuv 2009-01-04

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Create a seek on FICS
2. You can choose from three pre-defined ranking intervals for opponent
3. What if I want to play against interval of 1200-1400 opponent?

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I should be able to input my own interval.

Does it happen every time? yep, its a feature ;-)

What version of the product are you using? 10alpha

Did you use an installed version of PyChess or did you run in from a tarball/svn? deb from www.getdeb.net

Please provide any additional information below.

Please attach the latest pychess logfile. For PyChess <= 0.6.x it's hidden in your homedirectory and called ".pychess.log". For PyChess > 0.6.x, it's in a hidden folder, under your homedirectory, named ".pychess/"

Which the possibility for future to make a package for Windows platform?

Using pygobject, pycairo, pygtk, py2exe and nsis as the installer is not very difficult. But it has modules in pychess that they only function in Linux.

Original issue 337 reported by regnskog 2008-08-04

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Load a game or press "start game" on start screen
2. Client freezes before even seeing the board 3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I expect to see a chess board. What I see instead is nothing.

Does it happen every time? Yes.

What version of the product are you using? "Philidor 0.82". I am running on Archlinux with an english-localized GNOME.

Did you use an installed version of PyChess or did you run in from a tarball/svn? Tried downloading first from website, and then from distro's repository with same result

Please provide any additional information below. This is the first time I tried pychess so it might be some package I am missing etc.

Please attach the latest pychess logfile. 13:08:48 Default Debug: Started

Original issue 404 reported by igor2x 2009-03-03

Hi, today I have transleded 100% of text PyChess into Slovenian language using Launchpad: https://translations.launchpad.net/pychess/trunk/+pots/pychess

Then I have done the following:

1. after I had completed translation I have downloaded .mo file from Launchpad to my Ubuntu 8.10 notebook
2. renamed downloaded .mo file to pychess.mo
3. copied pychess.mo to locale directory: sudo cp pychess.mo /usr/share/locale/sl/LC_MESSAGES/
4. set privileges to file: sudo chmod +r /usr/share/locale/sl/LC_MESSAGES/pychess.mo
5. started the PyChess program by using: pychess command from Terminal

What I see this version of translation is most likely for 0.8 version of PyChess, but I have installed 0.10 Alpha 2 PyChess on my notebook, because official 0.8.2 from Ubuntu repository had some bug that prevented me to play on-line chess with black figures. This bug is solved by 0.10 version downloaded from http://code.google.com/p/pychess/downloads/list and installed by deb file.

What I have found out that 0.10 does not show correctly all tags (it shows English version instead of my translated version) with some translations like in Action menu, there are the following items not translated at all despite I have translated them in Launchpad:

1. in Action menu Offer Pause
2. in Action menu: Offer Resume
3. in Action menu: Offer Undo
4. in Action menu: Resign
5. in Action menu: Ask to move
6. in View menu: Fullscreen (this is probably new tag in 0.10 version, because I can't find it on Launchpad).
7. in View menu: Show Sidepanels (probably new tab)
8. Settings menu is in English (can't find in Launchpad, probably new in 0.10)
9. in Game menu | New game window has the following not translated options: a) White player b) Black player c) Time control d) No controls e) Rapid (it looks new in 0.10) f) Chess Variant g) Play Normal chess h) Play Fischer Random chess (it looks new in 0.10) i) Play Losers chess
10. When closing all tabs there are two windows at top there is: Opponent not translated
11. At the same window but bottom (internet game) there is no translation with Handle and Password.
12. At the same window there are both bottons "Start Game" and "Connect to FICS" are not translated.

Can you please fix all translations that was already available in 0.8 and are now broken in 0.10 version. Regards

I did a clone to port pychess to pygi. It needs work but you can play a game against it Human vs Human.

Original issue 822 reported by [email protected] 2013-11-10

Hi!

First: I love pychess because I like the design and the playful but functional style. But I encounter some problems since update to Beta. Pychess freezes and crasdhes regularly on various occasions,since I upgraded from the stable version to the Pychess 0.12beta4-1. I use it on Ubuntu 13.10.

Playing ffline and playing online on FICS freezes Pychess, if: 'Giving up' freezes pychess. 'Saving' freezes pychess. 'Enable undo'freezes pychess. 'Offer Remis' freezes Pychess 'Break' freezes Pychess Pychess crashes frequently after starting FICS; many times in between a game or while doing a move.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. 'enable undo'
2. 'give up'
3. 'Save' or 'save to file'
4. Opponent 'Give up'
5. Crash unpredictable.
6. Ask for a 'Break'
7. Offer 'Remis' (Literally all functions of the actions segment)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I would expect that pychess is doing what it is told instead of a freeze. I have to force quit and close instead.

Does it happen every time?

Freeze yes. Crash frequently.

What version of the product are you using?

Pychess 0.12beta4-1

Did you use an installed version of PyChess or did you run in from a tarball/svn?

I used the recent deb and updated the archive as described in another post to make sure I got all the bugfixes.

Please provide any additional information below.

Please attach the latest pychess logfile. It's in a hidden folder, under your homedirectory, named ".local/share/pychess/"

Original issue 515 reported by zollo.john 2010-01-18

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Setup GNUChess as analyzer and enable hint mode & restart.
2. Play game against PyChess engine at easy level.
3. Once you are in a position with a forced mate (Mate in X moves) you will no longer see the green hint arrows.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

 A green arrow to show the next move in the forced mate.  Instead I see

nothing.

Does it happen every time?

 Yes

What version of the product are you using?

 SVN r1568

Did you use an installed version of PyChess or did you run in from a tarball/svn?

 SVN

Please provide any additional information below.

I think the bug is self explanatory.  Please let me know if you need

any help! Thanks for all your good work!

Please attach the latest pychess logfile. It's in a hidden folder, under your homedirectory, named ".pychess/"

Thanks for everything!!! Keep up the good work!!!

Sincerely, John

Original issue 274 reported by lobais 2007-12-21

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Start a FICS game
2. Finish it
3. Close the game window

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

PyChess now asks if it you'd want to save the game, and after that the entire application shuts down.

The user may think he/she can just return the the lounge window, but it shuts down as well.

If i delete engines.xml and ~/.pychess to simulate a new install, and have installed gnuchess and crafty, i get this error, and PyChess can't start. (If i have no gnuchess and crafty, start is OK.)

Original issue 543 reported by michael.yoyo 2010-03-09

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Install pychess on Ubuntu 10.04
2. In terminal type "pychess"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expected pychess to start, instead the error message "Warning: Releasing nonowned glock has no effect"

Does it happen every time?

Yes, every time pychess is started via terminal, the error occurs.

What version of the product are you using?

pychess 0.10 beta1, running on ubuntu 10.04.

Did you use an installed version of PyChess or did you run in from a tarball/svn?

Both

Please provide any additional information below.

The error is reported before any graphics are on the screen. From Ubuntu Launchpad https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pychess/+bug/534761 .

Please attach the latest pychess logfile. It's in a hidden folder, under your homedirectory, named ".local/share/pychess/"

According to the PyChess "About" page, "you can login to FICS ... and resume an unfinished game after being disconnected." This happened to me: PyChess disconnected during a game, and a dialogue box came up offering to reconnect. Upon reconnecting, I discovered that the game had been lost due to the disconnection (although there was plenty of time left on the clock). For future reference, how does one resume a FICS game if PyChess loses the connection to the FICS server?

Running on Windows 11. I have a 4k monitor with scaling set to 200%.

The font of the score in the hints tab is so large that it gets cut off.

Workaround:

• Go into the properties of pychess.exe
• Go to the compatibility tab
• Click the "Change high DPI settings" button
• Enable "Override high DPI scaling behavior."
• Select "System" or "System (enhanced)"

Doing puzzle game in learn, Piece checkmates II #6 Black king is on C6, White Knight on D5, White Knight on E4, White King on F5. Whites move. Any move by any piece gives Not the best move! Retry. Best move suggests Knight on E4 to move to D2 , and trying that returns with Not the best move! Retry. Moving either knight, or the king all fail.

Hey, great program! Best chess program for Linux.

One small issue though: unless you've made at least one manual move with the mouse, engine analysis in the Hint window can't be added to the annotation window; it is unresponsive to double-clicks. This is a tad suboptimal when starting a game analysis from a FEN position.

But after making a move with the mouse, the annotation window will show, for example, "1. Kg6". Once that first move is listed in the annotation window, double-clicking on the engine line in the Hint window, adds the line to the annotation. You can then use the direction arrows to move through the analysis and see the moves displayed on the GUI chess board.

During the end-game when moves aren't that plentiful, if an engine just spits out a move quickly, there's a strong chance that the move will not be read in. This results in a situation where PyChess waits until the time times out.
