 * Home * Engines * YChess**

a family of chess programs by Roman Antonczyk, early [|Postcardware] MS-DOS versions from the mid 90s running on 386 PCs with [|VGA] or [|SVGA] graphics cards. DOS Version 1.09, as available in the [|Internet Archive], mentions in its readme file a new command line options to adjust the transposition table size, recapture extensions, and modified passed pawn extensions. The later, no longer available Windows version YChess 1.0 was commercial distributed via the [|Kagi.com] [|e-commerce] [|micropayment] platform. It is a native engine with an own WinBoard and UCI compliant GUI and apparently own endgame tablebases.
