Excellent. Installed :)
|
i've been playing arround and have managed to replicate the reset board bug; working on a solution.
For now, i'm going to release a minor update with a few misc bug fixes |
If I post a move using click method, I see the change, but when I click post reply, the move is erased visually, but shows up in the text area. Also as a spectator, it will put coordinate moves in my quick reply.
also can posts be appended into the same post? Some games have 10s of pages of posts. |

any way to exclude chess games from "new posts" functions? Also when another user enters a game by moving a piece it doesn't update the forum view thread title. It changes the thread title in the thread, but if you goto the forum view the thread title is still for example "Dethfire vs "
btw, can you include version checking in the product page? |
I have a couple really nit-picky users complained about white/black, flipped board, etc. Because this mod uses style CSS definitions of alt1 and alt2 for the board (which I think was the right way to go in coding it, btw) some users of mine complained that the Queen's not on her color. She is, but my some of styles are defined with light and dark tones reversed from vB's default. So here's what I did:
I added this bit into every style's "Additional CSS Definitions" area in style manger Code:
/** START Chess Board **/ Code:
if($forumid == $vbulletin->options['chess_forumid']) I am going to start looking into making a marble chessboard, wood chessboard, etc. |

Actually, using images there is pretty simple if you know anything about CSS ;)
I've done a marble one already: * Create a directory called "board" in your /images/chess/ directory. * Upload the attached files to that directory * Change that CSS definition to: Code:
/** START Chess Board **/ http://www.mydomain.com/forum/images/chess/board/white.jpg |
the marble table looks great, thanks!

Got a problem - The pieces can move ANYWHERE
Basicly i was playing normally and someone moved their king 2spaces......... I then proceded in selecting everypiece on the board and selecting queen and i had a board full of queen's. Has this been fixed in the update ? it doesn't say............. |

oh well no point in installing it then - Thanks.
Whats the point in going in to making a mod like this if you are not going to do it properly ? |

I'm not sure how you can be dishonest since the moves are logged and if someone cheats or makes a mistake, on your next move just move those pieces back. It's the original persons turn again and they can either fix their mistake or take their toys and go home if they are cheating.
This is simply a board game on your screen not a computerized chess game. A player can move a king two places if you were sitting across a board from them as well. You would simply move it back if it occurred and you can do that with this mod. I see no reason to dog someone's mod they are offering to everyone for free. If it's not right for you, move along but it's hardly pointless. |
I fully respect the author for a very great mod ;)
will be installed when out of the beta stage. thanks. |
I noticed that when it was someone's move, they can move their piece anywhere. (eg. White Pawn to Black King). Is this a known problem?
|
I like this mod but it needs a lot of work. I'm working on several changes to it and I'll send them to you if you wish to merge and integrate the changes.
I have a few questions: 1. Why does the ajax not update the board state after moves for spectators? It seems to work for players, but people who are just watching the thread do not see the updates, though they see the chesschat text area get updated. Where do I fix that? 2. When a piece is replaced e.g. pawn promotion, the ajax update on the opponent's board shows the move, but not the changed piece. (It works if the entire page is refreshed though.) How do I fix that? Thanks |
Also, why does the "moveno" tag in the AJAX xml reply not reflect the actual move number and what is the purpose of this tag?

I had to change mine to 94% to get it to line up properly. Maybe that's just the way it lines up using firefox?
Anyway at the very top line of the chess template change the 100% to 94% or 95% or whatever works for your site. Code:
<table class="tborder" id="post$post[postid]" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="94%" align="center"> |
Hi guys,
Thanks for the replies. Unfortunately, that doesn't fix it for me. The problem is that the Chess plugin is missing the (forum's) page background. I have 3 skins and this disrupts two of them. We have a 10px border on both fixed-width sides of all forum pages. Chess is missing the CSS for that. Hopefully I didn't butcher that explanation. :o |
When will the official version which supports the rules be out?

I'm facing the same problem, they complains about not to flip for black. :( what can i do? can u please modify it so it flips automaticaly for the other player. it cant that one play from down to up, and the other from up to down. causes confusion for black. great mod though. |
I would be great if you can make it the same to Chinese chess.
Thanks. |

Can you please explain how we can turn off the post count, (ie) Forums & Moderators > Forum Manager > Play Chess Forum > Show Private Forum > Yes, Hide Post Counts As you may find, this clearly doesn' work. |
anyone...?
|
Forums & Moderators > Forum Manager > Play Chess Forum > enable/disable features > Count Posts Made in this Forum Towards User Post Counts: no
and Forums & Moderators > Forum Manager > Play Chess Forum > Posting Options > Index New Posts in Search Engine: no This first one disables the post count, the second will stop posts coming up in the show new posts section |
You could realy make this a good start,I think making one for slime games or something would be a great idea !
|
I made a back ground board modification. Should work for anyone. If not you can remove it easily.
I PM'd the Arthur to look at and add if he likes. This should get everyone by till th alt1 and alt2 control the backgrounds. |

I have done this but to no avail, the moves are still showing in the 'New Posts' button on the NavBar. :( Quote:
Could you please share with the rest of us by providing clear instructions in the same fashion that Carnage did 2 posts above yours? I am really looking forward to adding your new board. Thanks, AO |
They are in the zip. If there is something you don't understand, please ask. I would be happy to answer.
|
can you guys please tell me how to swtich the board for black precisely?
