Subject: Re: Play Gothic Chess Live, without needing a server
Hey Everybody,
Ed and I played real time Gothic Chess!!! It works and is very easy to setup!!
Ed of course won...but it was battle with him having 3 seconds left on his clock.
You can change the color of the squares and the font of the game list! Set the clock for any time one wishes to play, and also save the game when your finished, which we forgot to do!
You and your opponent should agree on the time controls 1st because there is no way to change it after other than playing another game in the process. Also, you should give your opponent your IP Address before you start if you are the one hosting the game...IP's change everytime you disconnect from the internet so just keep that in mind when playing!
So have fun and start playing!!
