Hi everyone,

I need a huge favor from anyone who still uses Chess Assistant or Aquarium.

I found an old database of my personal games from the classic Chess Assistant days. Unfortunately, I no longer have the software to open it. The database consists of the standard split files (.ck1, .cko, .BFI, .BDY, .DSC, etc.).

Could someone be kind enough to open this database on their software and just export it to a standard .pgn file for me?

I have all the files ready in a .zip folder. If you can help, please leave a comment or send me a DM and I'll share the file with you.

Thanks in advance for helping preserve these old memories!

Does anyone have any idea how to convert these databases?

sir this is the off topic forums, nobody even knows what you're talking about

you could probably recreate the games in a chess engine though

What is the correct topic?

And I can't recreate because i can't open the files. The games are more than 20 years old.

Thanks.

Probably chess.com community or general chess discussion would probably be the best topics to put this in
