There is a circle on the square where I moved to, but the piece itself is on the wrong square. In some sets (probably the animated 3D sets), I move a piece and it is on the wrong square.

I just wish that some patches would come along to fix these things, making the program even better than it already is. Overall, my experience with Chessmaster XI has been very positive. They are not a big deal for the most part, so I don't mean to nitpick anything. Happily, all of these bugs (except for #4) occur quite seldom. Your new Standard rating increased by 25 points and is now 1536." As you can see, one of those is correct, but not both! For example, if I'm rated 1511 and I win a game, then it might say, "Your new overall rating increased by 14 points and is now 1536. In one game several months ago, I watched Chessmaster illustrate its corrected line, and when it reached the end, I stared at the resultant position and realized that it allowed a mate in 1!Ĥ) When Game Summary lists the new ratings after a rated game, it regularly makes calculatory errors. Well, the problem here is, every once in a while, the last move in Chessmaster's "corrected" line is a blunder. It will say things like, "Better is Rxe5, leading to." etc. The program knew that my 9th move of the day was my worst move, but it looked at move 9 of the whole game and reported the wrong move.ģ) When analyzing a game, Chessmaster will give corrective analysis on moves it disagrees with. Kg7, i.e., 9 moves from when the game resumed that day. I eventually realized that my worst move was actually 33. Nd5, it couldn't possibly have been my worst move. Nd5." However, while I did indeed play 9. When I resumed the next day and lost, Game Summary reported my worst move as "9. Rb8.Īlso, last week, I played a game and adjourned it after 24 moves. For example, when my opponent has 40 minutes left in a 60-minute game, and I pause while it's thinking, if I resume the game only 20 minutes later, its clock will suddenly say "-18:54:02," and I win.Ģ) In the Game Summary window that appears after each game, the "best move" and "worst move" are sometimes wrong. Just off the top of my head, some of them are:ġ) If I pause the game while my opponent is thinking, then when I resume, my opponent's time will occasionally have lapsed by many hours, giving me an unearned victory even in a rated game. Most, if not all, of them are not very serious, but they are occasionally just bad enough to put a damper on my playing experience a little bit.
