Endgame Libraries

YChess Endgame Libraries
All three-piece and four-piece endgame libraries are included with the standard YChess installation. The five-piece endings are not part of the installation due to the substantial size of the files (two DVDs are required to store all five-piece endings).

Nalimov Endgames
Many UCI and XBoard chess engines use endgame files created by Eugene Nalimov. If Nalimov Endgames are available, then setting the path to these files in the Common Engines dialog will make them available for use by UCI engines.

YChess Endgame Generator
You can generate the YChess Endgames yourself using the tools stored in egtben.zip. A very powerful PC and detailed knowledge of using command-line tools is required. To download egtbgen.zip now, click here.
