In his News Ticker, Frank wrote the following sample *.eng for using TheKing under the Shredder GUI:
[ENGINE]
Name=TheKing 3.12
Author=Johan de Koning
Filename=F:\Shredder5\wb2uci.exe
[OPTIONS]
LoadEngine=F:\Shredder5\Engines\TheKing\TheKing.exe
ShowStats=1
SendToEngine=cm_parm opk=xxxxxx cm_parm tts=33554432
My question is this: to use TheKing under the Fritz GUI do I modify the above lines and rename it "TheKing.init" and put in the directory C:\Program Files\Chessbase\Engines\TheKing (??)
For example - filename "TheKing.init"
[ENGINE]
Name=TheKing 3.12
Author=Johan de Koning
Filename=C:\Program Files\Chessbase\Adapter\wb2uci.exe
[OPTIONS]
LoadEngine=C:\Program Files\Chessbase\TheKing\TheKing.exe
ShowStats=1
SendToEngine=cm_parm opk=237533 cm_parm tts=33554432
Also, if I do this, TheKing still moves instantly. I must have something set up wrong.
One good thing, The King uses the deafult Fritz book with no problem.

I think step-by step instructions are still needed for using THeKing under the Chessbase/Fritz GUI.
Thanks.

Frank,
Maybe other people are having the same problem, so I will ask a few more questions. TheKing is still moving instantly under Fritz6.
Here is my file setup as Gunnar instructed:
C:\Program Files\ChessBase\Engines\CM-theking (the directory)
C:\Program Files\ChessBase\Engines\CM-theking.eng (Chess-Base "WinBoard-Adapter").
C:\Program Files\ChessBase\Engines\CM-theking\tk.exe (chess program TheKing).
C:\Program Files\ChessBase\Engines\CM-theking\cm-theking.bmp (logo for TheKing).
C:\Program Files\ChessBase\Engines\CM-theking\cm-theking.init (config file for the WB adapter).
C:\Program Files\ChessBase\Engines\CM-theking\cm-theking.exe (adapter by Odd Gunnar Malin).
C:\Program Files\ChessBase\Engines\CM-theking\InBetween.ini (config file for the adapter by Odd Gunnar Malin).
I have the correct *.opk file number from Chessmaster.
The opk number (for example 237533) is put in the "Inbetween.ini" file??

Thanks,
JOHN

Hi John,
another, you must create your own OPK number with the Chessmaster 8000 CD.
The number from me or from an other person is not important.
Without your OPK number you have not a chance to play with TheKing under other commercial GUIs.
Please look in my readme file (available in download file) and you find all important information.
I think the readme is very clear !

Would someone please post a sample Inbetween.ini file. I KNOW that every opk number is unique and must be generated with each person's own Chessmaster CD. Even so, I've done that and still TheKing moves instantly under Fritz6.
Is another file required? (wb2uci.exe ???)
Also, I noticed that TheKing generates a unqiue "myk" file number in its log, in addition to the "opk" number.
Thanks,
John
