I'm new in the forum. A week ago I decided to program a clock for play chess with friends, because the game becomes more exciting/complex.
Initially, the clock was very simple, but this days I have perfected and expanded Chronos. I have published and is free, I simply want to share it so that others could use.
This is a screen of Chronos 2.0. In the 1.0 only can play Sudden death mode. But in the 2.0 I solved some bugs and other details, + more modalities. This is the complete list of features:
Set the player's names and colour of pieces.
Game's life since 1 to 90 minutes per player.
Optional Countdown (uses Beep Console, the first time it maybe not sound).
To switch turn, press Space Key.
Moves counter.
Sudden death mode.
Hourglass mode.
Fischer mode.
Bronstein mode
Optional parameter to include Reflexion time.
Parameter to activate/deactivate increment at X move.
Parameter to activate/deactivate increment at X minute (reflexion parameter, if you put to activate at the same time of game's life, don't be Reflexion time).
If someone wants to use it only need have installed the .NET Framework (at least version 2.0). No need to install the clock , it's portable. In principle, you can only use in Windows.
