I would like to develop a chess game like the biggest chess game http://www.movesky.net/cdenglu.htm

I am interested in a chess website with member login ,forums, live chat, leader boards , rankings , live multiplayer chess games and tournaments.

Another option might be having the login / forum and using someone else’s chess script ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/webchess/ ) and have a section for chess problem solving ( http://www.dhtmlgoodies.com/index.html?whichScript=chess-blindfold-trainer ) with rank/ leader board.The ratings and tournaments aren’t even that important to get me start…

I need some content for a chess site I am developing.

content can be heavily quoted from open content research material, and pictures are a must.

Very interested in examples of board positions and such. I would like to keep this open ended, but the end deliverable must include at least one board position in each post to make the content relevant.

Need a professional, seo friendly wordpress theme for a chess club. The theme should be original and copyright free.

Will provide club logo, but the logo can be redone if required.

The theme should widgets, custom menus and should have options to upload/set theme related data like logo, etc. Also, should be integrated with social networks.

Hey all!

I invented an all new chess game: Rubicon Chess. It works the same as normal chess, except you conquer the squares of the chessboard. By doing so they harvest coins for you, 1 coin per turn. With these coins you can buy extra pieces. The more elaborate version of Rubicon Chess also has extra dice rules for capturing.

For more information about the gamerules and examples (on pictures)see:
http://www.chess.com/forum/view/chess960-chess-variants/rubicon-chess-unit-building-dice-variant

–What type of game am I looking for?
This chess variant would be difficult to play offline, on the board. Software would save alot of time as it does all the calculating en memorizing savings and income. The chessboard can be very basic, just icons resembling the pieces on an 8×8 chessboard.

–What are you going to use it for?
I just want to play this game locally with friends! The game doesnt have to be implementable in a website and it only has a 2 player mode. So no AI has to be programmed.
Besides that the game can be shared for free on the web. Why would I want to keep a game for myself?

–The game–
See the picture below for an example of what it could look like. It shows some important stats and which player owns which square.

Menubar: Start – Options – About

“Start” has two choices:
- start new game
- exit
“Options” should open a new window:
Checkboxes:
- use dice? y/n [takes away the dice, pieces capture normally]
- use economy? y/n [takes away coins and buying pieces]
[cannot uncheck both boxes- that would be normal chess)
Buttons:
- change prices [enables user to save new prices for pieces]
[default button?]
- change chances [enables user to adjust the chances for pieces. (min. 2, max 12)]

“About” has two options:
- rules
- about

I realise that these options require some programming. Perhaps there are chess engines available that one could use.

On payment.. I dont know how much time this costs to make. By the end of August I got my salary and will see how much I can miss. Im a poor student so it wont be a crazy lot. Well may be there’s someone who likes chess and feels like doing it for not so much money.

How much would you normally ask for such a game?

Also I dont know on what program it should be written. I you think your language is very suited to write this game.. then let me know! Its not about the looks, but its about the game. Please do make it suited for windows 7

Thanks for reading and I’ll check back regularly.

We need Professional Game Developers to build an Online Multiplayer Chess Website for us, where Players would be able to play Chess against each other.

IMPORTANT: It will be Cash (real money) based Gaming Website. Members will be able to play against other members for real money. As monetary transactions are involved, security of the gaming system is our main priority.

The web design, back-end (PHP) and database (MySQL) part of the website is being done separately. So you do not have to worry about it. You just need to concentrate on gaming part.

The gaming engine should contain the basic features:

1. Game Lobby – where logged members will assemble and see which other members are online, which chess table are available to join, create new chess table e.t.c.

2. Text-Chat against the other player while game is on.

3. Multiple Games – Players should be able to play multiple chess games against other players at a time.

4. Data Exchange – The gaming system should communicate with the back-end to receive and post data. In simple words, the system will have to inform the back-end, whenever a chess game table is setup, a chess game starts, a chess game ends, which player won and who lost and all such data which is required for updating in the database.

5. Common Chess Table Features – Player who setup the chess table should be allowed to customize the game, like total time limit of game, time limit per move and other stuffs possible.

The gaming system should be easy to use, so that members do not spend lots of time trying to understand what to do. You can check out Chess on Yahoo Games website as a reference.

IMPORTANT: As this website is based on real money, the security of the gaming system needs to be HIGH PRIORITY. The system should not let any kind of hacking or exploitation. Please use PMB to discuss the security part of this project in details.

——————————————————————–

This is the system that we need.

Kindly give us clear explanation about which technology would suit this system the best, taking security into consideration. Also what server setup would be required.

Please use PMB to provide us complete details on how you can complete this project and what is required on our behalf.

I would like some vector chess pieces for a project I am working on.

This picture gives a fairly nice example of the style I am looking for: http://www.euskalnet.net/pecas/xfritz.jpg

Notice the simple design, pleasant shading, and small drop shadow.

Art should be all your original work, bearing in mind the shape of chess pieces have not changed much in the last few hundred years.

[Slammed cover letter are mostly ignored].

I currently own a Multi-player spades program.I require a programmer to go into my current program and ad a “ELO chess rating system” so it will rank players by each match they play, I also have the ranking icons for each level the achieve. It would more than likely need a separate data base to track each players match play.
Also I want to change out the card deck in my program to a larger numbered deck of cards which I have.I also want to change the card sound wav. file in the program for when a card is played. And last thing a simple graphic change to the way I have my program named.
Method of payment, the programmer that gets the bid I will pay half of the money to, to start.Then when program is delivered 1 week after delivery the other half paid to make sure the program is running smoothly.
Also when bidding, if you do an exceptional job, there will be plenty of more programs to work on in the very near future.

Hi

I have old source code in pascal, I am looking for a chess program written in Delphi 2007 that takes the source code and makes a gui instead of command line. It must be made into a class so that later we can create a multi threaeded program. I needs to

1) be a gui
2) read pgn formats
3) read fen formats
4) support database
5) suport UCI chess engines.

I require source code so it can be modfied later.

Thank you

We are launching a Multiplayer Cash Gaming Website and require some web-based multiplayer games for it. It is basically a website where members will be able to play web-based games against other members for real money. As monetary transactions are involved, security of the gaming system is the main priority. We will explain it to you.

The web design, backend (php) and database (mysql) part of the website is being done separately. So you do not have to worry about it. You just need to concentrate on gaming part.

For this project we require only one game – CHESS. So please place your bid only for one game. If everything goes fine, we will definitely take your service in future for additional games at additional price. So we need it for Chess only right now.

We require the gaming architecture as follows:

- Lobby : You are required to create a game lobby where logged members will assemble and see which other members are online, which chess table are available to join, create new chess table e.t.c. The lobby should be only for Chess. Other games later would have their own lobby. The lobby should be multi-tab, so that when a member starts a chess game, it opens up in a new tab. This way a member can play multiple chess games in different tabs, against multiple players. You may suggest more ideas into this.

- Game : You have to create the game (Chess) which will be multiplayer (2 player for chess). Both player should be able to play against each other. Also both player should be able to Text-Chat against each other while the game is on. Also the member who setup the chess table should be allowed to customize the game, like total time limit of game, time limit per move and other stuffs possible.

- Data Post and Get : The gaming system should post data back to the backend of the website. In simple words, the system will have to inform a webpage whenever a chess game table is setup, a chess game starts, a chess game ends, which player won and who lost and all such data which is required for updating in the database. The system should fetch data from a webpage to get details of the members like the money balance, ratings, total points of member, last 5 game details and such info. In total the gaming system should communicate with the back-end of the website. Experienced programmers should be able to understand what we require.

The gaming system should be easy to use, so that members do not spend lots of time trying to understand what to do.

You can check out the Yahoo Games website as a reference. We are talking something like it – http://games.yahoo.com

IMPORTANT: As this website is based on real money, the security of the gaming system needs to be HIGH PRIORITY. The system should not let any kind of hacking or exploitation. Please use PMB to discuss the security part of this project in details.

Some technologies which we found that could be used for creating the gaming system are:

1. Flash Based (Adobe Media Server / Flash Communication Server)
2. Flash Based (SmartFoxServer)
3. Java Based
4. AJAX Based

We have found out that the gaming system is possible through these systems. Out of the 4, we found out that the Java Based solution might be most secure. Flash based solution should be easier to create and deploy, however Flash based games can be hacked easily using a decompiler and then the hacker could exploit the system.

If you have any other way out, please use the PMB and send us complete details.

PLEASE USE PMB (Private Message Board):

No matter whichever solution you think is best, kindly use PMB and inform us in full details on how you are going to do it. Give details on how the security will be fully maintained. Also send us any extra idea you could add to our project, which could benefit us.

Remember right now we need just 1 game – CHESS. If things go fine, we have many many games to be done in future. So bid and provide sufficient details for the project completion.

A chess website writted in PHP for two-player games. The list of the members, the games they have played as well as some other information about each user like the ranking, the history of the ranking, the number of games they have played, won, lost, etc should be kept in a database. Different type of games with different time-frames should be possible. Users should be able to make friends with other users and find out if their friends are online. A chat room is desirable. At least two boards should be included with the option for the user to change the size of the boards.

I need a Chess software that will be a blank board at first when opening it, and it will let me position pieces manually to represent the state of a game. For example if in real life I am playing a game and we have both our kings left, 2 knights and 3 poons, I want to reproduce this game manually on the program and then, the game should calculate if it is possible for either black or white (I choose which one it should calculate) to win the game.

For example I make a search for White, and the program calculates all possible moves there are and if there is a possible way to win this game.

I should also be able to move the pieces of either black or white, and search for the best move of either black or white.

We need a web-based flash-based multiplayer chess similar to Yahoo Chess, but all those features are not required, we need a simpler version.

The chess.swf will dinamically submit data to a .php script (player username, score, etc.) hosted on our 512MB-RAM VPS server for ranking purposes etc. and will update user profiles on an already existant simplemachines.org forum with 2300 registered users (at the moment). The chess.swf will load strings dinamically at startup because we will translate the user interface to other languages (spanish, french, italian, etc.). This can not be a modified version of SMFarcade or childish things like that.

- Required: SWF/PHP/MySQL solution, NO java of any sort.

- First step:
You must provide a link to a simple demo with just a few features working on an empty simplemachines forum on your own server, we will not pay anything if you can’t show a basic demo.

Hello, I need a bot program that will automatically do Chess moves for me, in a fast way.

I have a GUI that I use to play against my chess engine and on the other GUI (playchess.com), I play against someone else using a Chess engine.

So, what the BOT needs to do is to

1- Take the moves my opponent does and do them on my GUI against my chess engine.

2- Take the moves my chess engines does and do them against my opponent.

Bot would probably have to work by mouse moves.
