Atak 4.85 and egbb tables

[Pablo]

Hello folks,
The new Atak version 4.85 apparently load the egbb tables from a separate folder (C:\egbb or similar) instead from inside the Atak folder.
Nevertheless I had been unable to load the egbb tables from anywhere. If somebody knows how to load them with Atak4.85, please tell me how to do it.
Cheers,
Pablo

Hello Pablo,
If you need to load egbb from different location you need to have an initialization file. example atak.ini. Example entry will be:
Egbb_Path c:\chess\egbb\
Email me if you have not still found the solution.

Best regards.

Hello Ferdinand,
Thanks for your reply but I am a little "nurd". Atak do not have a configuration file so my guess for the egbb initialization file is to add it at the winboard.ini command line something like this
"Atak c:\egbb" /fd=c:\Atak
Please your comment,
Pablo

Hi, ALL
Dll file and dat files should be placed in the same folder as Atak.exe or in "C:\egbb\".
In the next version I will add initialization file "Atak.ini".
Thanks.

Hello Mateusz,
At my PC, Atak 4.85 do not load the egbb tables neither if they are at the same folder of Atak4.85 and neither if they are at a c:\egbb\ folder.
Bye

Hi, Pablo.
If you want to use egbb creat folder for example XXX.
Next unzip rar from Leo download page to this folder.
Next uzip egbb rar from Leo download page to this folder.
Atak.exe, egbbdll.dll, and dat files are in folder xxx.
