How do I use Winboard engines in Chessmaster?
Both Chessmaster 8000 , 9000 and 10,000 support only Winboard protocol 1, but this should work fine for most engines since most of them support both protocol 1 and 2. The procedure for setting up Winboard engines is explained clearly in the user’s manual page 62 for Chessmaster 9000, so I won’t waste space explaining it here.Chessmaster 8000 users should get the 1.0.4 patch which fixes a few bugs. Chessmaster 8000 users should refer to the Chessmaster FAQ . Don’t be surprised though if some of the imported engines don’t work too well. Most should do okay though.
