Hi all,

I am trying to add pawn promotion to Mythic Chess. Sadly, I am a terrible chess player and am having trouble getting a pawn to the other side of the board.

Does anyone have a save game one move before getting a pawn to the other side of the board?

Thanks in advance.

Well umm.. Didn't you make the game? So why can't you make a scenario editor to do it for you?!?!

Of course, but that sounds like a whole lot of work just to test pawn promotion :)

you don't have to have a big posh gui-driven scenario editor... i guess what enslaved is saying is: you're the programmer, you know the chessboard memory maps and stuff... can't you just edit one that fits the case?

i'm not a programmer, so i don't really know...

maybe it'd add a lot more to the game for serious chess players if you did add one though, like Esn says... then you'd be able to play those sunday newspapers 'the board is in X configuration. force a stalemate in X moves' type problems...





edit: i've got no batteries, or else i'd give it a try...

Now that is exactly the reason why the difficulty settings should be working first ;)

Of course, after trying to get a pawn to the other side of the board for about an hour it occurs to me that Mythic Chess supports two player mode. In two player mode I can just move my piece straight across the board.

So, as it turns out, I am a dumbass. Thought I would share.
