I made a site with more than a million games by ECO code - with the names of ALL the openings. It's great for creating free ebooks in Bookup or for use with any chess game database. It's based on MasterChess 4000. www.chessopeningspgn.com/chess/Openings.html The "links" page includes pointers to the PGN specifications and other helpful items.

What's the difference between Bookup and Masterchess 4000? I have Bookup, is Masterchess 4000 something like the Direct Tree in Chess Assistant, but in Bookup style? Is Masterchess 4000 any use if one already has Bookup? I don't have a clue what Masterchess 4000 is about, in other words. I spent a long time trying to figure that out, but wasn't able to find any explanation of what Masterchess 4000 is.

Masterchess 4000 is a "poor man's ChessBase," a CD ROM with over a million games with a high speed search and filtering tool and a playing program with 3D pieces and Fischer clocks. MasterChess often finds more games than ChessBase because it uses Bookup's technology to generate all possible move orders and then searches for them all at once. (ChessBase uses handcrafted opening keys which miss some games.) MasterChess 4000 is $29 and more information is at... http://www.bookup.com/mc4000.htm Bookup is a positional database (tree-shaped) but unlike a tree of games, it allows you to instantly add new lines and comments, it detects all transpositions instantly and automatically, and it allows you to train yourself by playing mock games against the tree. A video that explains how Bookup and MasterChess work together is the 7th "Watch Video" link at... http://www.bookup.com/tutorial_videos.htm Mike Leahy "The Database Man!" www.bookup.com <[email protected] > wrote in message news:[email protected]... > What's the difference between Bookup and Masterchess 4000?
