Scid

I used to have a PC and I had Scid vs PC. Now I have a Mac and I have Scid for Mac. Is it just me or is the Scid for Mac much inferior than the Scid for PC. The interface is terrible in comparison and lots of windows don't work the same way exactly and always for the worse. The commentary window. SCID vs PC - How to play against engines ( Phalanx ). SCID offers two way to play computer opponent: against Phalanx or any installed UCI Engines.

Igor try and try to make SCID vs PC/MAC work. Never work. He have ChessX. It is good but Igor just want SCID. He lust for it. It is little better than Chess X. MAc so limited for the chess apps. Make Igor want to pluck nostril hairs in anxiety. Finally he realize his mistake with his walnut brain. He was trying to use 32-bit version on Catalina. STOOOOPID Igor! Stoopid. He find 64-bit beta version and Igor now rock and roll. He need this for his future chess blog posts. Yes, Igor try to teach the chess now. He will explain more in future. For now Igor go watch Paul McCartney videos on Youtube. Paul was cute Beatle.

I like the chessx UI a little better - of course it's what I'm used to. I like that it highlights the destination square when you hover over a piece, so that you only have to click once to make a move. You can disable that feature if you don't like it, and right clicking changes the destination square. I also like being able to see the pgn and the analysis at the same time. Maybe I can do that in Scid vs Mac, but I haven't figured out how yet. Chessx is very similar to hiarcs, and much of the information in the hiarcs forums will cross over to chessx.

You can analyze games on it. If there is not an analysis section to the right of the board, just go to View and then select Analysis 1. If you'd like a 2nd analysis window (ie you want to use 2 engines at the same time) you can do that. It's supposed to come with Stockfish preloaded. If for some reason it didn't, in the menu bar go to chessx-preferences-engines, and you can add it much the same as you did with Scid.

Edit: After spending some time using Scid, I see that it can do all the same things that I like about chessx. I still prefer the chessx UI, but as I said before, I'm just used to it. I do like that Scid can auto annotate games, something that I don't believe chessx does.
