Hi gaintpd! I learned from cjssh1002 about the new pieces to be displayed for Janggi and Xiangqi.

Similarly, will you please consider adding traditional boards/pieces for Makruk (Thai chess) and Sittuyin (Burmese chess) as well? Both variants are already supported in cutechess, and will only require cosmetic changes. They use non-checkered boards. The Sittuyin board also marks its long diagonals.

The above is the Makruk piece set developed by @Fulmene, and released under CC-BY-SA-4.0. Coming from a Thai player/designer's original effort to lend a more authentic look to the pychess-variants website, the boards and pieces should be pretty authentic in shapes/size/color.

The Sittuyin set below is by @CouchTomato87, also made initially for the same website, and released under CC-BY-4.0. He based the design on diagrams from the official Burmese Sittuyin rules booklet, and they also look quite authentic.

Thank you!

** "RED(black)" Passing in Bikjang state **

1. Janggi mode: Red can use the passing. Because the score is 1.5 higher, you don't lose. (score pass rules)
2. Casual mode: Red can use the passing (bikjang/pass = no rules)
3. Traditional Mode: Draw if Red uses a passing. (pass = no rules)
4. Modern Mode: Red can use the passing. Because the score is 1.5 higher, you don't lose. (score pass rules)

** Blue(white) Passing in Bikjang state **

1. Janggi mode: Blue can't use the passing. Because the score is 1.5 low, you will lose. (score pass rules)
2. Casual mode: No bikjang & no pass rules. (pass or move)
3. Traditional Mode: Draw if Blue uses a passing.(no rules)
4. Modern Mode: Blue can't use the passing. Because the score is 1.5 low, you will lose. (score pass rules)

============================================
The rules of Bikjang and Passing apply in duplicate. It is similar to "double check"of chess.

To do list.

Bugs to be fixed.

1. Perfect implementation of Bikjanggi
2. janggi pieces image size and stylish janggi board
3. Change of coordinates (English coordinates of Korea = Winboard coordinates)
4. Korean language and database Korean search
5. The normal implementation of the openingbook.

It would be perfect if the five points mentioned above were modified.

I see movement as a problem in the first line of cannon, which is common between the two games.
It seems to be mistaken for something.

Opening book playback issue.
Openingbook in certain locations do not work.
white works in most positions, but black does not work with openingbook in some movements.

I would like to correct this.

In the picture below, the openingbook is not applied for some movement of white and black. This is a move that has already been entered. However, some locations do not use openingbook.

When playing the game, when the score of the black (red) piece is high, double-click the king and use the "pass" then automatically make the 0-1 decision. Unless Blue "pass" again, the 0-1 judgment is wrong.

The normal janggi rule is play again in white (blue).

but it is automatically changed to "Ke9" in the movement record and is judged as black (red) win.

Many of this bugs appear early in the game.
It works fine after the mid-game.

This is a very serious bug, please fix it as soon as possible.

I can search English move records, but not Korean languages. Please solve it.

In the picture, the king of white (blue) cannot move up one space. There are no special problems with the rules of movement. The bug is sure.

PAWN(P) is missing from Cute janggi's movement record.
So I can't load the game normally after saving.
Request to unite coordinate notation.

Coordinate notation has been separated.

So we cannot share PGN files.
Is there any workaround for this?

This is the coordinates used in Korea.

Hello,

I wanted to install your xiangqi-enabled Cutechess in my computer and I can't get the exe to run. I followed all the steps as described for Windows (https://github.com/cutechess/cutechess/wiki/Building-from-source).

First I installed Qt 5.15.2 - 64 bit. Then I downloaded your master.zip and unzipped it in a folder in Program Files (x86). Then I launched Qt as admin, browsed to the directory and executed the qmake and the mingw32-make commands. Uploading the installation log:

Installation log.txt

Then when I go to the GUI project (C:\Program Files (x86)\Cutechess Xiangqi\projects\gui), I can see a Cutechess.exe file has been generated, but when trying to run it, 4 error pop up asking for some .dll files:

• Qt5Core.dll
• Qt5Concurrent.dll
• Qt5Gui.dll
• Qt5PrintSupport.dll

Do you know where can I find them? Maybe there was any error during the installation and the needed files were not generated?

Thanks for your help.

Best regards
