Programmers - Chess
by Max C. · in General Discussion · 02/05/2003 (10:16 pm) · 14 replies
Hi all-
I am looking for a programmer for a small non-profit online chess game. I know that there are not very many willing programmers out there, but I don't have the skills that I need to finish this project and it would be great if I could find someone out there with common interests.
If you would like to help I must state that I cannot pay you directly. Like I said this is for non-profit only! If anyone can offer any help I would really appreciate it, thanks,

awesome, in my game (Isotope X) I will need something like this. There is a level with a chess theme with a giant chess board in the center which I was hoping would have chess matches run by AI being played while the players fight :) then during online play people would be given the choice if they wanted to fight each other or play chess :). Would it be cool if I used your library? check out the game at www.planbgames.com

"I?d be happy to share this lib with you - or help you out in general." That sounds great. This would help greatly! Thanks,

Just to clarify, it doesn't actualy play Chess - but it does handle everything else. Including parsing SAN (which was a royal pain the ass to code).

Ok. I'll package 'Chesslib' up at the weekend and make it available to anyone who wants it.Just to clarify, it doesn't actualy play Chess - but it does handle everything else. Including parsing SAN (which was a royal pain the ass to code).

If you are looking for chess AI, I believe you can use GNUChess as long as you follow the GNU license requirements. http://www.gnu.org/software/chess/

It wont compile out of the box, as it has a few dependancies but it should be a good head start for any chess game. Let me know if you have any problems.
